    IHG One Rewards Platinum status benefits

    60% IHG bonus points

    IHG Platinum status offers a 60% points bonus on all eligible stays. Since you ordinarily earn 10x IHG points per dollar spent at most IHG brands, you’d earn an extra 6x points per dollar spent, which will make your points add up quickly. This is in addition to any points earned through IHG promotions.

    Room upgrades (subject to availability)

    IHG Platinum members are entitled to room upgrades, subject to availability at check-in:

    • Upgrades are offered up to standard suites, though this is at the hotel’s discretion; that’s to say that a hotel doesn’t have to make a suite available for an upgrade, even if it’s empty
    • In the past many IHG properties weren’t great about proactive upgrades, though since the relaunch of the program, properties have been retrained with offering proactive upgrades, including some hotels even upgrading up to 48 hours before arrival

    Welcome amenity at check-in

    IHG Platinum members are entitled to a welcome amenity at check-in. This could include bonus points or a drink or snack, though the exact details will vary by brand, region, etc

    Reward night discounts

    With the relaunch of the program, it’s being promised that IHG Platinum members will get access to award night discount promotions several times per year. There’s no specific timeline with which this happens, but we’re told to expect it multiple times per year.

    Early check-in & late check-out (subject to availability)

    IHG Platinum members receive early check-in (no exact cutoff specified) and late check-out (as late as 2PM). The catch is that this is subject to availability, so it isn’t guaranteed as it is with some other hotel groups. Don’t count on this being granted, though it’s something you can definitely ask for.

    Guaranteed room availability

    IHG Platinum members get guaranteed room night availability when booking at least 72 hours in advance. This could come in handy if you’re trying to book at a sold out hotel, but expect that you’ll pay a very high rate for this privilege.

    The main issue is that this benefit doesn’t apply “during special events that result in extraordinary room demand, as determined solely by the hotel.” That would typically be the time when something like this would be most valuable.

    Access to Milestone Rewards program

    Arguably the most exciting aspect of the new IHG One Rewards program is Milestone Rewards, which is only somewhat tied to elite status. With Milestone Rewards, members can be rewarded for every 10 elite nights they earn in a calendar year, starting at 20 elite nights and all the way up to 100 elite nights. Potential rewards include confirmed suite upgrades, club lounge passes, food & beverage vouchers, and more.

    At 20 elite nights, IHG members can choose one of the following:

    • 5,000 bonus IHG points
    • Two food & beverage rewards worth $20 each
    • A confirmable suite upgrade

    At 30 elite nights, IHG members can choose one of the following:

    • 5,000 bonus IHG points
    • Two food & beverage rewards worth $20 each

    At 40 elite nights, IHG members can choose two of the following:

    • 10,000 bonus IHG points
    • Five food & beverage rewards worth $20 each
    • A confirmable suite upgrade (limit one)
    • An annual lounge membership (limit one)

    At both 50 and 60 elite nights, IHG members can choose one of the following:

    • 10,000 bonus IHG points
    • Five food & beverage rewards worth $20 each
