IHG is offering a targeted discount on the cash portion of a Points & Cash stay at IHG hotels worldwide, available for stays booked by November 28.

This offer is valid for stays through December 26, 2025, making it ideal for those with holiday travel plans.

While this offer isn’t anything to get too excited over, the discount may be enticing for those looking to save points by spending a combination of points and cash. Let’s take a look at the details on how you can get a discount on your next IHG stay.

What Are IHG Points & Cash Stays?

IHG Points & Cash operates a little differently than other hotel chains. Rather than set a fixed cash rate and a fixed points rate, IHG One Rewards essentially takes the total all-points rate for the night you want to stay in a hotel and then divides it into half-points-half-cash rate. The cash rate is equivalent to purchasing the other half of the reservation in points.

It will likely only benefit those who are truly short on points. As a result, you’re not really saving anything by purchasing the points for the other half of the reservation. Should you need to cancel your reservation, you’ll only receive points back for the entire stay since the cash portion is non-refundable. This is a true outlier for hotel programs.

How To Save

This targeted promotion allows you to receive a 15% discount on the cash portion of the booking rate. Ultimately, this serves as a 15% discount on the purchased points for the reservation. Furthermore, this promotion is eligible for bookings made by November 28 for stays through December 26, 2025.

To search for the savings, you must log in to your IHG One account online. Then, try going to the promotion page directly. Alternatively, navigate to the offers tab within your account to see if you’re targeted. If so, simply make a Points & Cash booking as you normally would. From here, the discount will be automatically applied to your booking.

If you have this offer, you can essentially buy points while making a reservation — buying them at roughly 0.49 cents each. That’s slightly better than our valuation of IHG points at 0.5 cents on average.

Hot Tip:

You should always check the all-cash rate for any stays, as sometimes the all-cash rate can present a better deal than the Points & Cash option.

Final Thoughts

While you shouldn’t go out of your way to purchase a Points & Cash stay under this offer, if you don’t have enough points and need to reserve an upcoming stay anyway, you may find this promotion worthwhile. This latest 15% discount on IHG Points & Cash stays may help you save on expensive short-notice hotel stays through December 26.

Since this offer is targeted, not everyone will find it in their accounts. Make sure to check your account if you’re interested, then complete your bookings by November 28.
