I really need to be Chinese....not a single EU / Northern European or North / Central American hotel at 5000 points.

I can only admire the skills of IHG management.
They manage to kill the Pointbreaks without killing it.^ |

BYE BYE IHG: I've been top teir with you for over a decade almost two, spire since inception but this year I let my ambassador status expire and was borderline if going to make a push maintain spire? This list just helped me seal decision. The point breaks was the only value really left in your IHG rewards, but it is clearly gone now : (( so I'll take my spending to starriott where at least I'll be guaranteed some firm benefits such as the 4pm late checkout like I'm enjoying while writing this. Of course IHG please do keep sending me the promos for quarterly bonus as I do like your new kimptons, and will hope to find some use out of your points perhaps a roadside HIX similar to the one booking I actually did get out of this list Oh well it was good while it lasted... |
I think the two hotels in Panama City are good deals. I stayed at the HIX there and enjoyed it immensely. Both hotels are close to the metro, which is a very convenient way of getting around. Panama City has many really interesting sights, in addition to the CANAL, which is amazing. They use the US Dollar as their currency, which is a plus. The Museum of Diversity and the Old Town are musts. If you are Jewish, btw, there is a very large Jewish community in Panama City with about a dozen kosher restaurants. It's a very cosmopolitan place.

The HIX Jacksonville-Fleming Island is a pleasant enough property in a somewhat inconvenient location.

Same here...where is this new list ? |
This is indeed tge same old list it seems. Did they just extend that or not uploaded yet new properties? |
Have you tried clearing your browser’s cache and reloading the page or use a different browser? That’s how I got the list on my phone. Regarding the list, may be the only one but for me this is quite a good list. I’ve booked four nights for Newbury Park, London at 10000 points a night which I irrocially already had booked on the best flexible rate. The Crowne Plaza Edinburgh also looks good as IIRC it has just had a refit. Yes I agree that the 5000 point offerings are long gone for most but for a few more points you have got a better selection of better located properties. I don’t every recall anything inside of the M25 being on points breaks before. |

For a second you got my hopes up, thinking that the disappointing list I had seen was not the new list, but only the list of leftover old ones... But no... :-)
You can see if you are on the latest list as within the text at the top it says 'valid for bookings made up until 28th February 2019' rather than referencing November. |
Candlewood Valdosta Mall. Perfect timing as I need one night in December driving north.

Bottom half of the world misses out again, how IHG hates Australia, NZ and S Africa

The only one I could have used is the HIX Houston Beltway at 10k.
But then again, cash rate $57 (or $70 for a suite). Or I could just stick with my booking at the Candlewood next door, which is 10k all year round and has a kitchen in the room. |
