Is there any way to get the stay to trigger as qualified? I.E. if I put a good amount of charges on the room? Any hacks?
Good luck with that strategy, I don’t think it will ever work. Find a really cheap IHG night at hotel by your home and book a night there using cash and points. If the price and points are low enough it MAY be worth it for the 40k points
