Very quick thoughts
As with all promotions, make sure you read the terms carefully and make sure that you understand the cancellation policies relating to any bookings that you plan to make.
A lot of IHG’s discounts are based on the best flexible rate but turn out not to be very flexible aa all, so don’t get caught out.
As far as the 4th night free promotion goes…
Pay attention to the wording which reads “The free night is NOT a 25% discount but the said free night being free. The free night(s) as indicated above is not movable to an alternative night in the booking“.
This should mean that in the case of bookings where the cost of some nights is greater than the cost of others, someone with a bit of flexibility may be able to ensure that they book in such a way that the most expensive night of their stay falls on the 4th night.
As some hotels/resorts, that could make a material difference to the total cost of the booking.
Bottom line
IHG is currently running two promotions for stays in Africa, the Middle East, India and South Asia, so if you have plans to stay in any of those locations in the coming weeks, make sure you check to see if either promotion can save you some money.
