I've just finished the map for this preview list, I hope that some will find it useful! I can't embed directly to the forum but you may view it here: Weekend Blitz - Preview: IHG/PriorityClub PointBreaks List Aug-Sep 2014
I have also color coded the properties based upon brand.
If you see any properties that have been misplaced please let me know.
Again, the full map is accessible here: Weekend Blitz - Preview: IHG/PriorityClub PointBreaks List Aug-Sep 2014

jmgriffin, you are a star. Thank you for that hard work. It makes the list visual.

jmgriffith - great list! Unfortunately, I noticed 3 errors just in the northeast after a few clicks (ie, the Woodbridge hotel shows up in NJ, but it's actually in NE). Might want to check the map...

There are more than I expected for the UK, and at least they are spread out a bit. Not bad, but I was hoping for something in Scotland, but that was not to be.

Well the UK choice is slightly better than the last one which was completely HIX. Not the best list I've ever seen but if you are in those areas they will be handy. Duxford is a decent HIX as is the Metrocentre one.

This is a fantastic list for Europe. One IC and CP in good locations and during the holiday period. Also several in the UK and it isn't full of HIXs like some recent lists have been.

Although I was hoping for something in Switzerland, South Germany and Italy. I suspect the list is complete, but here's hoping a few more hotels will be released on Monday. No Spain either?

No, I agree, it is quite a good list. I correct myself, because there is one property in Spain, namely Valencia. Tempted to give that a go, actually. Hope some of you can make use of these, otherwise.

I've spent a number of perfectly comfortable stays at the IC Bucharest: but I'd never expected to see the city promoted to a "good location for a European holiday"

Really!? Could you explain why? The hotel website makes it look the perfect place to stay to explore to Romania.
