The weekend night certificate issued as part of InterContinental Ambassador status just became more useful. IHG has a rather complicated rewards program structure. In addition to the IHG Rewards Club program that covers all of IHG's brands, InterContinental has its own guest recognition program, called Ambassador. An Ambassador membership costs $200 annually, and comes with…

Any chance Kimpton will start to honor other ambassador benefits?

@ Sel - they do recognise your underlying IHG status which will be a minimum of Platinum as that comes with AMB.

Unlikely they will recognise AMB as that has different benefits such as 10k points if they can't upgrade you for example.

Nice. I’ve been Ambassador for several years after joining for $100 at Kansas City InterContinental which was great for work. I always got the room I wanted and Club access at the Govt rate

I was supposed to use this year’s weekend cert this coming Friday and Saturday at the London Park Lane, where once my upgrade was to the bilevel London Suite.

Initially I would renew for 15,000 points the last couple years jacked up to 40,000. But I have plenty of points from just the weekend spend to renew next year.

I haven’t checked any virus extensions but adding Kimpton can’t hurt.

I’ve enjoyed weekend cert nights at Mark Hopkins in SF with upgrade to terrace suite, Century City in LA with huge terrace, a year ago today at New LA Downtown for BDay 🙂 corner suite. TimeSquare where we reserved the Jr. Suite with windows on 3 sides which didn’t have an upgrade so got Room Service Breakfast comp’d.
ANA & The Strings. Tokyo
Sydney Harbor with super Club InterContinental
2 Staycations at the Willard John Quincy Adams Suite and River Suite at the New Wharf here in DC

Works for me at least once a year!

@Bill AMB expiry dates and the weekend cert expiry dates have been extended by 6 months so chek your account for the new expiry date.

Normal IHG status has been extended to end of Devember 2021

Can you tell me which hotels are featured in the pictures on this article? I'm intrigued by the image in the first. Is it looking into a bathroom or window?

Excellent! The extensions are good. I just moved my next trip to Asia forward for the 3rd time, now into November and planned to use the Intercontinental cert in Thailand.
