In our previous post, we talked about the new Handpicked Holidays by IHG® promotion, which aims to offer IHG Rewards Members an all-inclusive holiday package at selected hotels.
Typical inclusions for these packages look something like this:
- Room upgrades
- Complimentary valet parking
- Complimentary breakfast
- Late checkout
- Hotel credit between $50 and $100
- Hotel specific benefits such as a round of golf or spa treatments
Sounds pretty good, right? Of course, we’ve done some digging and found our top 3 hotels participating in this promotion. A few of them are brand new and are on my list of places to try out!
