That's a pretty decent offer, shame it's only for APAC. Nice and straightforward as well.

Well most of the big chains have now shown their hand for the last third of the year. Even Hilton who are notorious for leaving it to the last minute have announced.

It will be interesting to see what IHG bring to the table. For Europe it can only be better than their summer offering.

If it's another Big Win/ITN etc I hope they have finally managed to sort out all the bugs.

Drat, doesn't work for me. A shame since that region is where I am until 2016.

Greater China Sale

IHG seems to have launched a Greater China sale today, supposedly offering 50% discount rates.

YMMV, but it seems to me to be another bogus IHG sale - I checked some late October rates for Hong Kong, but they did not seems to be ANY LOWER than the usual rates that have been comiing up for the last week or so.

Question for stay five nights bonus:
It doesn't say five consecutive nights stay. Can it be 1+4 stay during Promotion period?

It can be cumulative. My task is to spend $440 and currently it is showing up as 50% completed as I have spent around $220 over a few stays.

Thanks
I had to get the $38 restaurant spend added retrospectively by cs as it didn't register for points originally. It still doesn't show as counting towards target of $70.
I will chase up again!

My account is not eligible for this promotion. I thought that these promotions were open to everyone. It's even shown on the promotions page on ihg.com

I received something similar. Q: can the "stay 5 nights bonus" overlap with the
"stay once" bonus, i.e. only 5 nights total are required for both?

Yes, the first night also goes towards the overall total

In your case you only need a total of 5 nights

OMaaT Blog has info about "Priceless Surprises".

US Residents only, must pay with a Mastercard, Nov. 15, 2015 – Feb. 15, 2016. And the rewards are surprises, 1K points for the first stay, and after that it's a mystery...

The surprises are listed in the Official Rules, along with the odds of winning each, at least for the prizes outside the grand prize. Apparently, in the official rules, you can send in a 3x5 card with your information for a entry. (from MileNerd: http://www.milenerd.com/2015/11/yesterdays-ihg-promo/) There is a limit to 94 entries this way. The lowest level prize, 500 IHG points, has a chance of 1:1.18. If one ends up getting the 500 points every entry, basically for $46.06 in postage you end up with 47,000 points. I have some free time, I might try to do this just to see if it works. LOL
