IHG One Rewards has just launched a sale on award nights, which could save you quite a few points on a redemption. This promotion is initially available to those with a co-branded IHG credit card, and will then in a couple of days be expanded to more IHG One Rewards elite members, so let’s cover all the details.
In this post:
Save 15% on free night award redemptions
IHG One Rewards is offering members 15% savings on award stays:
- You must book by Tuesday, September 16, 2025
- You must stay by Saturday, November 8, 2025
- This is initially available to those who have an IHG co-brand credit card, and as of Friday, September 12, 2025, will also be available to non-cardmembers who have IHG Platinum or IHG Diamond status
- The offer is only available for stays of up to three nights; that’s because cardmembers get a fourth night free on award redemptions, so that’s a better value on longer stays
- The 15% discount is offered at the time of booking (you should see both the original price and discounted price listed)
- This can also be applied to Points & Cash bookings, but only the points portion is discounted
If you have any upcoming travel plans, this offer is definitely worth keeping in mind. And if you have already booked any stays during the offer period but can still rebook, that could be worth doing.

This is a lucrative offer that’s worth it
This offer from IHG is potentially worth considering:
- Since IHG One Rewards largely has dynamic award pricing, you might as well redeem when there’s a further discount on redemptions
- This is even useful for those with IHG free night certificates; they can be used for properties costing up to 40,000 points per night without a top-off, so you could redeem at more expensive properties than usual with this offer
- I’d say the major catch here is the limited travel window, as you need to stay in the next several weeks
The IHG One Rewards loyalty program is more useful since it was refreshed in 2022, with new perks for IHG Platinum and IHG Diamond members, plus the IHG Milestone Rewards program. When the new program was launched in the spring of 2022, we were promised that there would be occasional award sales, so this is one of those. We see these an average of around three times per year.

Bottom line
IHG One Rewards is offering a 15% discount on award stays. This is valid for bookings through September 16, 2025, and for stays through November 8, 2025. This is available to those with a co-branded IHG credit card, and as of September 12, 2025, will be available to non-cardmembers who have IHG Diamond and Platinum status. This could be a great time to make an IHG award booking with points or a free night certificate.
Do you plan on taking advantage of this IHG award discount?
Will this also apply for booking with six senses hotel?
This doesn’t show up for me, but my P2 has it show up in their account. I see a banner in the app advertising the promo. IHG customer service is useless.
Thanks for this. I also cancelled and rebooked for a stay this weekend and saved some points.
"You must stay by Saturday, November 8, 2025" : as IHG premier credit card member, I see this discount is also applied beyond Nov 8th... I am rebooking my stay (East Asia) after Nov 8.
This isn't working for me. I have the lowest level IHG card (IHG Rewards Select) and am signed in when trying to make the reservation for a lowly Holiday Inn Express in Florida. . .
Thanks, just cancelled and rebooked three nights and saved around 38k in points
