I thought there was a new promotion at Marriott, called Unlock More. What's annoying about it is that it takes effect from the second stay. You can register here:

As for IHG, in the last weeks I have managed to get sorted out with missing points and have found the call center quite nice and helpful. As for Accor, they just don't rock my boat, never have. Truth is, I don't like many of the hotels at lower levels (such as ibis or Mercure, the latter of which I detest). But Accor does have quite an interesting tie-up with Air France Flying Blue at the moment. Every time I take an AF KL flight I get Accor points, so I never have to worry about points expiry now. Equally, if I stay with Accor I get some Flying Blue miles.

I meant about general feeling on all the chains ... sometimes one is worst than the other ones, that are worst than the first one ...

Just to feed back, when I went to book the Mercure Bridgwater in the UK there was a text on the button for flexible rates saying that this booking would yield 300 bonus points. The points posted instantly after my stay, within 24 hours. Mercure Bridgwater is a nice hotel and my best Mercure stay to date (only negative, the windows don't open).

Question regarding the current APAC X3 Hotel Direct Exclusive Points Offer (until end of December)
Are APAC people who registered for this offer during the booking window receiving the X3 Points for multiple Stays during the designated Stay period, or is this only applicable to only one Stay (our first Stay) ? (assuming not overlapping with other offers)
I thought I would check here first.
I received the Points normally for my first Stay but did not receive them for my second Stay (which happened to be a back to back Stay).
When I only received the normal Points for the second Stay I went back to the T&Cs and got the impression that the bonus Points for this particular Promotion are only available for one Stay (not multiple Stays).
But I have just heard of at least one other person who has received the Bonus Points for multiple Stays, and it was suggested to me that the back to back booking blocked the issuance of Bonus Points for the second Stay.
I will call during APAC business hours but am just wondering if anyone here has definitely received Bonus Points for multiple Stays for this particular offer ??
*****************
Edit: I just posted the same question to another forum which seems to have a lot of APAC people. If I get a definitive answer there then I will post the answer here.
Further Edit: Received a response that multiple Stays are eligible and that it is the back to back nature of the booking which blocked the posting. Will call the AccorPlus office during business hours here to rectify this issue.

Anyone else having problems registering?

Worked for me, although no plans in that Geo at the moment.
Nh hotels sent me a 50€ voucher to use against a hotel in BCN so did. But I am now registered so will plan accordingly for trip back. My locality is UK for Accor.
