InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), whose brands include Holiday Inn, Staybridge Suites, and Crowne Plaza, is offering a free night for every two nights at their hotels. The offer is valid until August 15 and the free nights can be used any time prior to December 26, 2009.

There are some restrictions associated with the offer that you should consider:

• Only 4 free nights can be earned.
• Members will earn free nights instead of base and Elite points/miles.
• The two Qualifying Nights may be on consecutive or two non-consecutive nights stayed during the Promotion Period.
• Alternative Promotion: Members who have completed the PCR membership enrollment process prior to accessing http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/pc/1/en/c/10/content/dec/teaser/pc/0/en/lp/promolp/screaming/promo.html?_promoCode=7013 may alternatively choose to participate in earning double points or double miles (“Double Promotion”) and will be prompted to choose which promotion they prefer on the registration page for this Promotion. Members may only participate in one of these promotions. See https://secure.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/pc/1/en/login?_promoCode=7013&secure=true for terms and conditions for Double Promotion.

Although there are no points involved, free nights are free nights. Here is your opportunity to earn at least 4 free nights with just 8 nights in one of their nearly 4,000 hotels. I will register for IHG’s Priority Club membership today and report back on the Double Promotion. Look for my follow-up in the comments section for this post.
