The 10,000 package rate rules state "Are you a point junkie. . . How does 10000 bonus points per night sound to you? Book the 10k bonus point package and receive ten thousand IHG rewards bonus points for each night of your stay. These points are non qualified points and will not apply to elite status requirements."
Compare that to the 5000 point package rate rules: "Exclusive to IHG® Rewards Club members - Earn 5,000 bonus Rewards Club points for your stay when you book the 5,000 Bonus Point Package. A stay is defined as one night or consecutive nights at the same hotel, regardless of frequency of check-in/out. Membership of IHG Rewards Club is Free! Points can be redeemed at any time for a variety of rewards, including free hotel stays, airline miles, name-brand merchandise and more. Book now to take advantage of this special offer! ".
Nowhere does it state that the 5K points are non-qualified.
This is what mine say. "Includes room and 10000 Rewards Club bonus points per night if you collectmiles with participating airlines points convert into miles. Any number of consecutive nights at the same hotel will be considered one stay. Vouchers will be received upon check out"
