Shame about the CP Denver. Think that's the only one of those I've ever stayed at. Great treatment as Spire - upgraded to Junior suite on an award stay!

It's rather strange that IHG is basically not responding to this event. Might it be that IHG wants to downsize or even stop with the Candlewood Suites as a brand? If that is the case then one can understand that they let this happen.

It may also be that they want to stop with SVC as a partner for business reasons. and thats why they let this happen. The amount mentioned by SVC is that rather too low to be problem for IHG as chain. I would be not be suprised if SVC is in problems themselves and by this action try to avoid the real issue.

For every hotel chain, there is usually at least one of their brands that is less desirable/reliable. Candlewood is in the category of unless I know it is a good property I will avoid them. I have stayed at a nice Candlewood (brand new property many years ago); however, that was the exception. The few others I have tried have all been bad frequently with stale cigarette smells throughout the property. Not saying people smoked in rooms. Rather so many people had smoked outside all around the property that the smell permeated everywhere.

As an aside, until recently I categorized Marriott Townplace Suites the same way. Over the past few years they have a lot of newly built properties and are now quite nice for their price point. They are frequently a good value for award stays as well.

Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza are also mixed experience brands for me but not as bad as Candlewood. In the US where I travel, they tend to be older properties. Some are maintained very well and still very nice. Overall I am cautious about booking either of these brands but willing to try a new one I haven't stayed at before.

Staybridge also tends to be older properties but generally okay. There aren't that many of them and for family travel they are stingy on two bed rooms for award stays. So I don't stay at Staybridge as much.

Kimpton and HIX are really the IHG brands I prefer. HIX has an occasional dog but in general they are excellent. They are also very prevalent along highways and in smaller cities and towns. Very convenient for when I need to travel to those locations. Kimpton is upper scale with a nice funky vibe to it.

Intercontinental is okay; however, old school upper scale properties with no benefits isn't my cup of tea. I can do better with the Marriott equivalents where I have a higher status when I want this type of property. Not worth it to me to pay for Ambassador based on my stay patterns.

Since I haven't stayed at them, no opinion on the other IHG brands. May try Even once I resume normal travel. I had planned to try one for a staycation in Pittsburgh just before Covid hit.

Anyway, sorry for digressing off the main topic of the thread. Back to our regularly scheduled program discussing new hotels and disposals.

No benefits? Have you not joined the loyalty programs? IC's have the best benefits of any chain in the industry! Far, far, far better than Marriott. With IC's top elite status get a suite 100% of the time with free mini-bar, breakfast and club access. What other chain offers that? Especially these days.

The three IC's we are losing to Sonesta are not a big deal for me. I went to San Juan and it was possibly the weakest IC I've ever been to. In Toronto I always stay at the downtown IC. And I've not been to Austin in 20 years. No great loss IMHO.

Royal Ambassador requires direct spend (Annual Ambassador Fee) and a lot of indirect spend for stays at IC before you get the benefit. Furthermore, IIRC the qualification criteria are not published.

I am Lifetime Titanium with Marriott. I do not get (nor do Marriott's Ambassadors the highest level status that requires $20K per year spend) suites all of the time (or even close to it). I do usually get nice rooms and occasionally get suites. I do get breakfast and club access regardless of if I spend a dime with Marriott that year. There are many more full service Marriotts of a variety of flavors available than IC's. So no, I don't see Royal Ambassador status as a draw. Perhaps if it had specific published criteria and could be earned from stays at Kimpton and IC, then it might be of more interest. Each to their own...

Yes I am Lifetime Titanium too. That's why I know being an RA is vastly superior. Even superior to Marriott Ambassador. And it cost a whole lot less than Marriott Ambassador. And it does cover stays at Kimpton and Regent hotels as noted in this forum. But yes, to each his own. I am very happy that RA criteria is not formally published.

That's a whopping amount of Candlewood Suites properties. I'm getting the impression that this brand just got decimated. Anyone know what fraction of total Candlewood Suites properties this represents? In some areas, it feels like it's all of them.

It can be earned from staying at Kimptons, Regents, Six Senses, and IC.

It is 61 going out of a total of 415 properties at 30 June, so just under 15% of all properties. IHG state that there are 83 Candlewood Suites in their pipeline, so assuming these all get built, the brand will actually be bigger long term.

The most convincing theory I read (which I think I read on LoyaltyLobby, although I can't find the post now) is that IHG expected the minimum revenue guarantees these properties had to be costing (i.e losing) them money for years to come if revenue is below the guaranteed level for a long period. In that case, they might prefer the properties to reflag now preventing big, continued losses (to IHG) in future. For this to make sense IHG would have to be expecting the rate of recovery after COVID to be very slow, but depending on how high the minimum guarantees are I can see how this might make sense.

Thanks for the clarification. Hypothetically if I were to try to earn it via spend primarily or entirely at Kimpton (what would have been trying to reach Kimpton Inner Circle in the past), do I still have to purchase Ambassador each year? Does Ambassador in its current form provide any extra benefits at Kimptons?

Yeah, you would still need to buy AMB. Note there's currently a promo for those signing up for AMB which gives you a free night (after one qualifying IC, Regent, or Kimpton stay) in addition to the usual BOGO voucher that has come with AMB for a loong time.

RA benefits do apply to Kimpton and Regent in addition to IC. AMB benefits apply at Regent (outside Greater China) and IC. Unfortunately, most "regular" (non-RA) AMB benefits do not apply at Kimpton. The sole exception is that you can redeem the BOGO voucher at Kimpton (even weekdays).

So yeah, there are IMO two main downsides to the AMB program. The first is that the benefits generally do not apply at all of IHG's premium/luxury brands (only *Royal* AMB benefits do). The second is the issue with RA you mentioned in a previous post: The threshold for RA is fuzzy. Most people believe what's required is around $10k spend at IC/Kimption/Regent/Six Senses per calendar year. But on FT, there are always a few people with relevant spend somewhat over $10k which are unlucky and don't get promoted to RA. To be 100% on the safe side, spending a bit more than $10k may be required.

funkydrummer Thank you, I appreciate the additional information on the program details. In normal, non Covid years, I would estimate my annual spend at close to $10k per year. So my spend level would be marginal for RA qualification, a significant percentage of my stays are in locations with neither Kimpton's nor IC's, and I have to spend $200 to play. Granted the BoGo certificate covers most if not all of that cost. For my stay patterns, it is similar for both IHG and Marriott. I spend enough that they care about me and want to keep my business; however, not enough to be considered a high spender (IHG RA or Marriott Amb).

Yes, but that's overall. There seem to be some areas (for example, Orange County CA) where every single Candlewood seems to be going poof.

And looking over the list quickly just by name, it looks like a lot of them in the Dallas area, and some other areas, are going poof too.

So are these 83 going to be in the right places to fill in these markets in which the Candlewood brand is (from this Sonesta action) pretty much disappearing? If they made plans for those 83 before this happened, they might not have put them in the right places to "fill in the holes".

And I wonder what Sonesta will do with them all. Will they create their own extended stay brand?
