When The White Lotus chose a breathtaking cliffside resort—the Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel—in Sicily as the playground for all the drama of the second season, they unintentionally raised the bar for what is considered impressive when it comes to Italian hotels. But one hotel in Milan doesn’t feel the need to compete: Hotel Principe di Savoia.
Book Award Nights at IHG Hotels for Only 5,000 Points
27.07.2023 - 18:26 / smartertravel.com / Tim Winship / Ihg Hotels
IHG Rewards, the loyalty program of the InterContinental Hotels Group, today released its latest list of PointBreaks hotels that are available for booking for just 5,000 IHG Rewards points per night.
Offer Details
Beginning on July 25, IHG Rewards members can book award nights for 5,000 points at 138 participating hotels, for stays through October 31, 2016.
The new list includes 87 hotels in the U.S., 17 in the rest of the Americas, 21 in Europe, 10 in Asia, and three in Oceania, Africa, and the Middle East. The list includes two InterContinentals, the InterContinental Mendoza, Argentina, and the InterContinental Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
Deal or No Deal
With normal IHG Rewards award prices beginning at 10,000 points per night, the PointBreaks rates represent a discount of at least 50 percent. The value proposition is unarguably a compelling one.
Related:Hotel Booking: How to Get the Best DealAs far as sheer numbers go, the current list features around the same number of participating properties as the previous quarter’s. Both, however, are a significant downgrade from the roster of several quarters ago, which featured 210 hotels, including 142 in the U.S. alone.
Numbers aside, the question with PointBreaks, always, is whether any of the discounted hotels work for you.
Bottom line: Whether it’s long or short, the PointBreaks list is always worth perusing. There just might be a hotel that fits into your existing travel plans, or that could be the centerpiece of an opportunistic trip.
As always, room nights available at the PointBreaks rate are limited, so act quickly to lock in a deal that works for you.
