IHG UK & Europe 34% off Sale
Lacking in creativity, IHG has resurrected its 3-for-2 sale for UK and Europe hotel stays.
You could access the offer page here.
- Book by 30 April
- Stay by 31 May
- The Special Night on Us rate is 34% off the best flexible rate
- A non-refundable first night deposit is required
- Date is amendable up to 48 hours before the stay
Here are some London examples (rate per night):
- InterContinental London Park Lane £208
- Kimpton Fitzroy £157
- Crowne Plaza London the City £76
- Crowne Plaza Kings Cross £60
- Crowne Plaza London Kensington £76
- Hotel Indigo Paddington £67
- Holiday Inn Regents Park £65
- Holiday Inn Express Vauxhall Nine Elms £46
- Holiday Inn Express Hammersmith £40
It’s a bit weird that IHG still wants a deposit for your reservations given the current climate.
Remember to register to the 2,000 bonus points for every two nights promotion, and if you are eligible for the Milestone Bonus you can earn even more.
Instant Fraser World Diamond Status & 3-for-2 Sale
We wrote about Fraser World previously with regards to its deal with Mastercard. It looks like the deal has been extended and become even better.
You could access the deal on Mastercard’s website here, or Fraser World’s page here. There are two ongoing offers.
For Mastercard World Elite cardholders in Asia Pacific, you are given complimentary Fraser World Diamond status instantly. Its says Asia Pacific only, however Mastercard’s website was happy to accept my UK Curve Metal details.
If you don’t have a Fraser World account yet, simply sign up using referral code MASTERELITE to enjoy the Diamond status and there doesn’t seem to be any check. Existing members need to email [email protected] with the first 10 digits of the World Elite credit card for verification.
The second offer is open to any World or World Elite cardholders. Enter promo code MASTER during sign-up / booking to enjoy 3-for-2 on hotel rates, and fast track to Diamond after a 3-night stay.
We’ve already covered a similar deal in the past so I’m not going into many details this time. Fraser World has a few properties in London, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Diamond status comes with early check-in, late check-out and room upgrade on short stays.
The promotion ends on 30 June, 2021.
IHG 3-for-2 UK & Europe Sale
IHG has launched a new Night On Us sale in UK & Europe – well, “launch” isn’t the correct word, as similar deals have been coming round in the last six months or so.
- Book by 31 December
- Stay by 31 March, 2021
- A minimum stay of three nights is required
- Enjoy 34% off the Best Flexible Rate
- Non-refundable first-night deposit is required
- Changeable up to 48 hours before arrival
And here are some rates I found in London (per night):
- InterContinental London Park Lane £175
- InterContinental London The O2 £93
- Crowne Plaza Kings Cross £56
- Crowne Plaza London Kensington £76
- Hotel Indigo Paddington £69
- Holiday Inn Regents Park £60
- Holiday Inn Express Hammersmith £29
Some of the rates are quite good. However, beware that there’s a non-refundable deposit for the booking, so make sure your trip is going ahead before reserving anything.
[Black Friday] Hotels.com 5% off all hotel bookings
Although nothing exceptional, Hotels.com is running a Black Friday deal which could be useful to some.
You’ll see the pop-up when visiting their homepage.
By Monday 30th November, book your stays and enter code BFRWD5 to take 5% off your bookings. 5% off is not great, but the good news is you also earn reward stamps as usual, which is rarely the case with coupons.
[Black Friday] Marriott 40%-off Sale in Europe, Middle East and Africa
Marriott has started its Black Friday sale, which is valid for stays in Europe, Middle East and Africa.
You can access the offer here.
- Book by November 30
- Stay by January 10, 2021
- 40% off best flexible rate at participating hotels
- Certain brands, including Ritz Carlton, St Regis, Luxury Collection and Design hotels are excluded
- Some hotels may only have availability for weekend stays
You could search on Marriott’s homepage as usual with code QRI to filter the results.
I was shocked when I saw the stay-by date – what the hell is in their mind to think that people would rush to travel in the next six weeks, with the pandemic still going so strong?
Here are some example rates in London:
- W London – £213
- London Marriott Hotel County Hall – £189
- JW Marriott Grosvenor House London – £219
- Residence Inn London Bridge – £83
- London Marriott Hotel Kensington – £113
To be honest they don’t look 40% off to me – the hotels might have adjusted their best flexible rates in time for the promotion.
[Black Friday] Save 50% on hotels & flights with lastminute.com
It’s flying under the radar, but lastminute.com is running a very good sale at the moment.
It’s featured under its Pink Friday themed promotion. Until 30th November, you can enjoy 50% off their hotel, flight or flight+hotel gift vouchers. Simply enter promo code PINKFRIDAY50 when you check out. You can buy as many voucher as you like, but keep in mind that they are valid for 12 months, and you can only redeem one voucher per booking.
After you’ve made the purchase, you’ll be redirected to the voucher management page. Press Activate for myself and the voucher code will be sent to your email address.
Because of the rules, the ideal situation is when the booking costs exactly £50 so you have a genuine half-price saving. It’s quite straightforward to redeem, just be sure to compare the prices with other platforms before you book:
(I have no clue why the discount is 4p excessive either!)
For flights, note that you can only redeem on return trips.
If you know that you’ll have some (un-expensive) trips in the next twelve months, it may make sense to stock up some of the lastminute vouchers now.
[Black Friday] IHG 30%-off UK & Europe sale
Our first Black-Friday post – IHG has started their sale early this year.
You can access IHG’s promotion page here. As you may have realised, it’s not really a new offer. “More To See” is a promotion that IHG started earlier this year and has been going on for a while, although the actual content has altered a few times.
In terms of the BF edition:
- Book by January 10th, 2021
- Stay between December 4th, 2020 and April 30th, 2021
- Valid for hotels in the UK and Europe
- You save 32% off the best flexible rate (including 2% member-exclusive)
- Free cancellation allowed 72 hours before check-in
Look for the Book Now Pay Later rate plan when you search:
Here are some London hotels I found, for the first Saturday of December:
- InterContinental London Park Lane £192
- InterContinental London The O2 £134
- Crowne Plaza Kings Cross £67
- Crowne Plaza London Kensington £65
- Hotel Indigo Paddington £59
The rates are not bad, but to be honest I was expecting something more from IHG. At least I thought they’d re-run the 2-for-1 flash sale which was offered a few months ago.
Royal Lancaster Hotel 40% off sale
Black Friday is coming in less than a month’s time – it’d be interesting to see how the hospitality sector responds this year, but I’m expecting to see some very strong offers.
And someone has decided to kick off early already. Royal Lancaster, a luxury five-star hotel near Paddington is running an early Black Friday deal in a couple of days:
- Opens 6th, 13th, 20th, and 27th – 30th November
- Starts 6am and closes midnight
- 40% off executive rooms and suites
- Valid for stays through March 2021
- Free cancellation until 2pm on the day of arrival
Worth mentioning that the Landmark hotel shares the same owner so look out for similar deals. the Landmark is also on the Amex LHW £100-off deal list.
