It seems like they are going to be worth it. Double points and 25,000 gift plus probably going to offer free breakfast for 2 as a new tier benefit option.

The hotels now have some information on the changes but it appears to be embargoed. The lady at the FD when checking in tonight was very tightlipped other than saying it's "Exciting changes", when I asked what they were she said they couldn't say yet. I'll have another go in the morning when settling the bill

Sorry about breakfast - I thought the question was about points.

Another brick wall. I checked in somewhere else a couple of hours ago and the lad at the FD didn't know what I was talking about, he did say the FD Manager is on duty in the morning. She is quite chatty so I'll drop it in to the conversation if she is at the desk.
I'd imagine if the amenity is continuing there will have to be something for the new level that offers a higher amount of points than platinum currently does.
As for special recognition at ICs I can't see it for as long as AMB is on the scene.

As I mentioned in another thread that hopefully if Ambassador continues the new IHG Diamond level includes free or discounted Ambassador membership.

Without more confirmation, I am hesitant to call it Diamond level just yet.

This is based on one individual who posted the above in quotes -- "Diamond."

Tell me more...
Anything else of importance and/or when they might disclose additional benefits in advance of the July 1 unveiling?
I now have read various rumors that the new benefits are to take place on 7/1/15 to 1/1/16. Don't have a handle what is accurate though.
