IHG Booking Linky

-The current list is valid for stays through 4/30/17.
-Hotels can sell out of discounted rooms quickly and only a limited amount of rooms are available per night.

You can book up to 2 reservations per hotel. There’s no limit to how long each of the stays can be.

You can stay in any PointBreaks hotel for 5,000 IHG points.

IHG sells 5,000 points for $67.50 (or less via targeted offers after you sign in). My account is targeted for a 75% bonus on purchases of 15K+. I can purchase 35K points for $250 or just $35.71 per 5K points.

If those points don’t post instantly you can call IHG to get a points loan based on your purchase confirmation number in order to quickly grab a room. Alternatively you can transfer 5,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points to IHG, though transfers are not instant. It’s a terrible use of Ultimate Rewards points (as they’re were more than twice that to brokers or when transferred to other airlines or hotels), but it allows you to start buying points for 0.7 cents each.

If you already have IHG points in your account then you can buy points on the cheap via making a cash and points booking.

Be sure to click on the rules during the checkout process to make sure that the room is fully refundable (almost all are):

-The Holiday Inn Express & Suites Meadowlands allows you to redeem 5K points and $70 for a night, just click “more options” and then select rewards nights. If you cancel that night you’ll get back 15K total points, so you’ll have effectively purchased 10K points for $70, or just $35 per 5K points.

-The Candlewood Suites Secaucus allows you to redeem 10K points and $99 for a night. If you cancel that night you’ll get back 25K total points, so you’ll have effectively purchased 15K points for $99, or just $33 per 5K points.

-The Crowne Plaza White Plains allows you to redeem 10K points and $125 for a night. If you cancel that night you’ll get back 30K total points, so you’ll have effectively purchased 20K points for $125, or just $31.25 per 5K points.

Where can you stay for 5K points?
The full current list is here, but here are a few samples:
-Candlewood Suites Disneyland Anaheim, CA
-Crowne Plaza Stamford, CT
-Crowne Plaza Edison, NJ
-Staybridge Suites Stroudsburg Poconos, PA

-Holiday Inn Express Pretoria, South Africa

Hi,
Does anyone know if there’s a shul around STROUDSBURG PA? Ty

potential guest

link to the pointbreaks is not working for me

Mikey

@Yossi: Scranton is about half an hour, if that helps.

Joe S

Temporarily booked a night at Stamford since less than an hour drive and has an indoor pool, plus good reviews. I like that it’s close to 613 Restaurant too. Does anyone have any recommendations for winter or indoor activities for young kids in that area or close to it.

Hey Dan;

-Have you written anything up as to the Israel best-uses for IHG’s?

-Also, any chance of IHG status match to Hilton Gold?

Doen

the -Intercontinental Real Sando Dominigo, Dominican Republic min. is at 15k + cash, why did you put this in the 5k list?

Rick

No more in Stamford. In fact, most of the Northeast has already been taken.

netzih

any way to buy only 5k at the $35 rate? or only 10k at $70?

Charles

Just so people know;
Not only can allotted rooms be sold out BUT IHG changes the list after publishing.
I booked a 5 night stay someplace and had to change the dates. I cancelled and the new dates were not available. Since the location was so obscure I called and was told this Holiday Inn was no longer on the list. They admitted that the list was changed. They seem to offer a great list while selling points on a promotion and then change the list.
Dan, you seem to be promoting a firm that does a classic bait and switch to their clients and your readers.
