The InterContinental Ambassador program is offering a free night stay for new member enrollments or renewals made between April 15 and July 31, 2021. If you are considering a stay at an InterContinental, Kimpton, or Regent property before August 31, 2021, this offer is probably one to take a closer look at.

InterContinental Ambassador Program

InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has a unique membership system. There is a free-to-join IHG One Rewards Program. Once enrolled in the IHG Rewards program, members can purchase a membership in the InterContinental Ambassador program. For $200 per year (or 40,000 points) IHG Rewards members can purchase an InterContinental Ambassador membership for one year.

The Ambassador membership comes with benefits that include guaranteed room upgrades, Platinum Elite status, late checkout, a $20 credit for use at the bar/restaurant, and a free weekend night at one of over 200 InterContinental Hotels & Resorts—among other perks. In addition, Ambassador members can redeem their free weekend night at Kimpton properties for stays completed through the end of 2021.

Our Take

Do you have even an inkling that you might have two stays at qualifying IHG properties before November 2021?  If so, I would certainly take a close look at the math on this offer.

IHG points are generally valued at least 0.5 cents per point. If you have 40,000 IHG points lying around (or $200) and can find a qualifying redemption that is worth at least $200 then this offer ends up break even. This doesn't take into account the other benefits that IHG Ambassador membership offers.

This offer isn't for everyone. However, those who can travel—or anticipate being free to travel soon—can find some real value in this offer.

Is this offer strong enough to tip the scales in favor of purchasing an IHG Ambassador membership?
