IHG Cyber Monday: Earn 5x Rewards Points on Hotel Bookings
IHG One Rewards has reintroduced its lucrative 5x bonus points Cyber Monday promotion, available for hotel bookings made today and tomorrow (Monday and Tuesday). This offer allows members to earn significantly enhanced points for cash stays completed by December 31, 2025. All registered members will earn at least 50 base points per dollar spent, while top-tier Diamond Elite members can achieve an impressive 60 points per dollar before taxes. This promotion is particularly valuable, offering a return of approximately 26.4% of the post-tax amount paid, or 31.7% of the pre-tax amount, based on an IHG point valuation of 0.4p.
A key benefit of this Cyber Monday offer is its simplicity and generosity compared to IHG's ongoing ‘up to 3x' autumn promotion. Unlike the autumn offer, which excludes bonus points on the first stay and caps total bonus earnings at 70,000 points, the 5x bonus applies to all eligible cash stays booked on Monday or Tuesday, with no bonus point cap. Registration is mandatory before booking, though members already enrolled in the ‘up to 3x' autumn offer are automatically opted in.
However, there are specific limitations. Bookings must strictly occur on Monday or Tuesday, and stays must be completed by the end of 2025; nights extending into 2026 will not qualify for the 5x bonus. It's also important to note that these substantial bonus points do not contribute towards elite status qualification. The article suggests rebooking existing flexible IHG reservations if prices haven't increased, or even considering moving December stays from other hotel chains to capitalize on this deal. An additional benefit for targeted American Express customers is a £75 cashback on £300 of cumulative IHG spend, which can be stacked with this points offer.
