Many Nordic Choice hotels now make res with points non-refundable
Just did further checking, and this disclaimer of a res made with points being a pre-paid res and non-cancellable is also on the website for these hotels in Stockholm:
Nordic Light
Amaranten
Gillet
Hotel C
At Six
HoBo
Clarion Arlanda Airport
Also checked properties in CPH and OSL, and the disclaimer is on some locations in those places as well.
Using points at Nordic Choice properties was a really good use of points.
Now with a res using points being non-refundable, the situation has changed.
