What happened
Invited IHG One Rewards members who register can earn Diamond Elite through 2027 after 10 paid qualifying nights from September 30 to December 31, 2026. Standard Diamond Elite requires 70 elite nights.
A separate targeted promotion credits an extra elite night per paid night in the same window, capped at 10 nights or at 5 bonus elite night credits. Registration must happen before the stay. Award nights and Points & Cash stays do not qualify. Bookings through OTAs are ineligible. Qualifying stays are paid nights at a participating IHG hotel on a qualifying rate with spend over $30 per night or the local equivalent. Only one room per night is credited.
Bonus elite nights count toward 2026 status and Milestone Rewards but not as rollover nights. Diamond Elite can take up to 6 weeks to post. A promo-code error means the account is not targeted. Register first if invited, then complete 10 paid qualifying nights by December 31, 2026.
