Our Verdict
Feel free to share the offer you received in the comments below, everybody has a personalized offer based on their stay history. IHG Accelerate is one of the few hotel promotions that makes me consider changing my bookings as completing most/all of the requirements can come with a nice big bonus. Usually when these offers are first released some people will get an error message, that usually gets fixed eventually. If that happens this time, don’t panic too much as we will repost when it’s working for everybody anyway.
Hmm… that link is taking me to the current offer (that ends in 8 days).
This is the correct link I believe.

Thanks for the tip
Fixed, sorry!
Thanks
mine is 35K max.
30k total, no bonus for completing x/y offers.
3 brands, 2 HI hotels, points and cash, 4 night stay, use ihg card
My offer is stay 1 night, earn 1k point… 1k point max. This is so bleak..
Same here. LOL. I used to get great accelerate offers but not anymore. Also, IHG used to be my go to hotel chain but in the last few years I have been shifting more and more business to other chains including Hilton and Radisson since they actually offer top tier elites breakfast.
Same here. These have been pretty lucrative for me in the past 🙁
Lamest one yet…. stay once and earn 1K pts. Yes. That’s it. Boo….
Offers are not what they used to be. Mines 18k total. 12k after 2 stays of 4 nights or more, 4500 for 1 point & cash stay, 1.5k to spend on IHG card.
1k is just insulting.
44,250 points total. 2 brands, stay 2 IC, 1 stay booked with Chase IHG credit card. Not bad if requirements overlap. Achievement bonus is 14,750.
39,000 points total: 1) 12,000 for two brands 2) 8,000 for two weekends (Sat+other) 3) 4,500 cash & points 4) 1,500 IHG credit card then 13,000 Achievement Bonus for all four
Not too shabby, can get it in 4 nights so ~$50/night earned value
29500 points
Stay at 2 brands and get 12,000 bonus points.
Stay at 2 Holiday Inn Express® hotel(s) and earn 8,000 bonus points.
Stay 2 weekend(s), including a Saturday night and another night, and earn 8,000 bonus points.
Book one stay at any IHG® hotel using your IHG® Rewards Club Credit Card and earn 1,500 bonus points
Boring. And what’s up w/ staying a weekend, but specifically one night has to be Saturday.
For the places I’ll be going until the end of the promo, doing this will cost at least $1100. All for a measly 29,500 plus points earned for the stays.
We have a lot of upcoming stays. We will see who has the friendliest offers etc
Definitely one of the worst I’ve got:
Total 39,200
19,200 stay 5 brands
8,400 stay 2 CP
5,600 stay 2 weekends
4,500 stay with points & cash
1,500 stay with IHG card
Does points & cash stay count toward the other stays?
Mine is somewhat similar:
8,400 stay 2 brands
8,400 stay 2 CP
5,600 stay 2 weekends
4,500 stay with points & cash
1,500 stay with IHG card
I think I got a similar one for Q3. I tried to make a points & cash booking, and it seems that the cash is used to purchase the points and then make a all-point booking. I assume it won’t count as a stay then.
A points and cash stay will count as a stay only for your points and cash booking task, but it won’t count as a stay for any other task on your list.
Pretty bleak for me too:
Stay at 2 IC and receive 11,200 points
Stay 2 weekends and receive 5600 points
2 Stays of 4 or more consecutive nights receive 12,000 points
Total of 28,800 points
I might be able to get the first one only.
24,400 max
Stay 2 Brands – 8,400
1 Points and Cash – 4,500
1 Night paid by IHG Card – 1,500
Complete all 3 – 10,000
Overall not terrible, they’re all pretty attainable especially since I should be able to do it all in 2 nights (latter 2 should overlap with the first offer)
8,400 Discover Our Brands
Stay at 2 brands and get 8,400 bonus points.
8,400 Stay at Crowne Plaza®
Stay at 2 Crowne Plaza® hotel(s) and earn 8,400 bonus points.
5,600 Saturday Stays Bonus
Stay 2 weekend(s), including a Saturday night and another night, and earn 5,600 bonus points.
4,500 Stay for Less and Earn
Book 1 stay(s) using Points & Cash and earn 4,500 bonus points. Points & Cash allows you to book Reward Nights with fewer points.
1,500 Spend on your IHG® Rewards Club Credit Card
Book one stay at any IHG® hotel using your IHG® Rewards Club Credit Card and earn 1,500 bonus points.
14,200 Your Achievement Bonus
Complete 5 of the 5 offers and earn (an additional) 14,200 bonus points.
Mine is “We appreciate your loyalty. Please see IHG® Rewards Club offers available now.”
Same 🙁
No soup for you.
Seriously though: try again in a day or two. I got this on the last one.
