I hadn't realised this - so none of the published RA benefits work at Holiday Inn or Crowne Plaza?
But just to confirm, will taking up the IHG offer of exchanging 40k points for RA status automatically renew my Diamond for 2023? Therefore I will continue to get Diamond benefits at all IHG brands?
Many thanks for your help!
I've heard this said many times but I have to say, in my experience the middle brands have in the main provided significant upgrades based on RA. No not the same as IC but pretty good and fairly consistent.
Example - stayed at T4 CP about 3 weeks back and had their top suite and room amenities and lounge. Same price. Other hotel aspects very much as standard. This has been the case a fair percentage of the time. But not 100%.
