Accor, the hotel group that includes well-known brands such as Fairmont, Sofitel, and SLS, has launched a new sale in which it's offering customers up to 40% off stays made through the end of March next year as well as triple points on all stays.

The UK government currently imposes a mandatory 10-day quarantine on visitors arriving into England from a wide variety of countries around the world (including the US). Since the middle of December, however, visitors have been able to shorten that quarantine period to as little as 6 days thanks to the 'Test To Release' program that was introduced. A little surprisingly, the COVID test available at the Sofitel Heathrow T5 qualifies for this program.

At the time of my stay a the Sofitel T5, England was under its second lockdown of 2020 (a lockdown which has ended today) so there isn't much point in writing a full review of the property as a lot of what the Sofitel usually offers wasn't available while I was there. Still, the rooms don't change because there's a pandemic raging outside, and a lot of the current safety precautions will be with us for some time to come, so I thought I'd share my thoughts on the Sofitel as I found it in the middle of last month.

On Monday, we received news that a number of Heathrow hotels will soon be offering room rates that include a Covid test. The Sofitel Heathrow Terminal 5 is the first hotel to offer this option and its 'Test & Rest' package is now available so, as it may not be entirely obvious how to book this rate, here's a quick guide.

Fairmont is currently running a sale in which it's offering 25% - 40% off rates at select properties in the US, Canada, Mexico, and Bermuda through 30 November 2019. In addition, select American Express cardmembers can save even more at most of these properties courtesy of an ongoing targeted offer.

Accor Hotels has launched a 'super sale' in which it's offering free breakfast and 30% off the best flexible unrestricted rate for bookings made on or before 24 May 2019. The sale applies to the majority of hotels in Accor's worldwide portfolio which includes high-end brands such as Sofitel and Fairmont as well as mid-tier brands such as Novotel and  Pullman.

Accor Hotels (the group that includes Sofitel, Novotel, Raffles and Fairmont among many others) is currently offering a very good deal for Avios collectors staying at one or more of its properties through 15 July 2019.

Accor Hotels (the chain that covers brands like Sofitel and Novotel) is currently running a sale in which you can save up to 40% if you're a member of the Le Club Accorhotels loyalty program (which is free to join).
