I'm just worried it might reprice the whole reservation as a new booking with today's pricing (which is higher), or it doesn't work like this?
I'll call them, just wondering what to expect.

I have a booking made on the website but I would like to check in a day later due to change of plans.
Is it possible to modify the reservation to start on the next day while keeping the existing rates for the rest of the dates? (It's not an offer with minimum number of nights.)

I just want to remove the first night, would it normally reprice the whole stay with today's prices?

I have done exactly this a number of times by calling the hotel, dropping a night and keeping the rest intact without changing the rates. I've also done the opposite, by adding nights, by paying the current rate for the nights added, and 'linking' the bookings to keep my existing rates on the existing nights, and not having to change rooms mid-stay. I suppose they don't have to, but I've never been told 'no'. But it could be property-dependent.

Sometimes it doesn’t change the rate but it all depends on the period you are staying
A stay with several nights is not simply an addition of individual nights. Only the hotel knows how they configured the rates, depending on the arrival day, if there is a weekend or not, there are multiple factors. So they will let you know.
For example, if there is a promotion with a discounted rate for a specific length of stay, if you shorten the stay, then the price has to be recalculated. Aside from promotions, longer stays are sometimes discounted depending on the arrival day.

I checked in into ibis Styles Schiphol on Monday and asked the receptionist to add the booking into my Accor account.
I still havent seen it appear in my account/app, how long does the booking shows in my account?

you mean how many days it take to show credited nights and points in your ALL account? 2-5 days, follow up after 7 days

Question for those who have more experience than I. Reached Plat, last month, SNU x 2 marked on my account. Received an email indicating they will expire soon. I was under the misapprehension that I would be able to use them up to and including 31/12/24. Am I correct or will I lose them 31/12/23 and then be credited with another two for next year?
Many thanks in anticipation.

If you reached Plat this year, the SNUs you received should expire Dec 2024, but you won't receive any new SNUs on Jan 1 next year. SNUs are given upon reaching a threshold, not at the start of the year. And whatever the expiry date, that's the date you need to book by, not stay by, so you should have lots of time to use them.

Not sure if this has been discussed: If I want to use points for a non-prepaid rate at the time of booking, but don't have enough to cover the entire amount, but expect to have more points for use before checkout - would I be able to make the booking with the points I have and use the additional points I will receive to cover the rest at checkout?
Hope that made sense...

You can do this, but I would wonder why you want to? If the booking is not prepaid, and no deposit is required, then why put any money down now, whether by points or otherwise? Just use your points at time of checkout. That would make things easier if you needed to cancel your booking later.

I appreciate the reply! I'm not too familiar with Accor and honestly the points were accrued via transfer and not from previous stays, so I figured it would be safer to use what I have now just in case something goes wrong and I can't during checkout. So you're saying there's no real chance of them not letting me settle the bill entirely via points at checkout, and to just do it then when I'll have all the points required?
