IHG One Rewards frequently adds new properties to its portfolio or refreshes existing properties. To encourage members to stay at these new or refreshed properties, IHG One Rewards offers a 15% discount on award nights at eligible new or refreshed hotels and resorts. Here’s what you need to know.
How to save 15% on IHG award nights
The good news is that you don’t need to register or enroll before booking to save 15% on IHG award redemptions at new and revamped hotels and resorts. Instead, you can check the list of eligible properties on IHG’s website. Or, you can search for award stays as usual and look for properties marked with a crossed-out award price.
You’ll automatically get the 15% discount when you log in to your account and book an award stay at an eligible new or refreshed hotel or resort through the IHG website or app. In the above example, the award night would normally cost 23,000 points — but with the discount, that drops to 19,550 points.
IHG updates its list of new and revamped hotels and resorts about once a month. Once IHG adds a property to the list, you can usually get a discount of 15% for stays within the next few months. Currently, you’ll find new or revamped properties that you must book and stay at by Dec. 31, 2025; Jan. 31, 2026; or Feb. 28, 2026.
However, note that this 15% award discount isn’t stackable with the fourth-reward-night benefit available to cardmembers of the IHG One Rewards Premier Credit Card (see rates and fees), IHG One Rewards Traveler Credit Card (see rates and fees) and IHG One Rewards Premier Business Credit Card (see rates and fees). As a reminder, the fourth-reward-night benefit lets eligible cardholders pay zero points for every fourth night when redeeming IHG points for a stay of four nights or longer.
