Crowne Plaza Haifa Rejoins IHG, Roundup Of Point Hotels In Israel

Never Miss Another Deal - Follow DansDeals on Facebook

The Crowne Plaza Haifa left IHG during the pandemic, but the hotel is now back with IHG.

I still miss the good old days when I was able to use just a few thousand Starpoints per night to stay at hotels like the Sheraron Plaza Jerusalem, Sheraton Plaza Haifa, Sheraton Moriah Tiberias, Herod’s Vitalis Spa Eilat, and the Le Meridian Dead Sea. Alas, like Starwood itself, those days are never coming back.
