You can now earn extra Le Club Accorhotels points and collect badges by virtually checking in to the hotel using their Facebook app during your stay. You can access Le Club Accorhotels web page for their Places app here.
All you need to do is to install the Facebook application, connect it with your Le Club Accorhotels account and do a check in during your stay. You won’t earn points if you are not staying at the hotel as well.
The Le Club Accorhotels will validate the Facebook app check in info with your Le Club Accorhotels account and post badges and some extra points.
It is unclear for me, what is the number of points that you can earn from this?
Conclusion
Starwood has offered extra points by checking in using Foursquare couple of times in the past, but Accor is the first hotel chain (haven’t seen any other offering this before) doing this with the Facebook. Just make sure that the app doesn’t spam your Facebook wall.
I hate sharing my facebook account with companies…
this is so intrusive
Create a spare one with barely any info – just for promos
That’s how facebook got 800 million users by people having several accounts 😉
Likely!
Well I don’t actually share any of my personal info on FB, but I once had 20 accounts for promos when I was still in school.
FB actually shut most of them down. I only have 3 – 4 open accounts now.
20 accounts is bit extreme.
2 little questions: is it possible to check-in once during a stay? is check-in qulifying for bonus points only for one person that booked a room?
You need to check in under the Facebook app that is linked to the Le Club Accorhotels account that the reservation is under. You cannot get these points for two accounts.

Does any body could tell me please how long it takes that the points your earned by Places app will be transferred to your Le club account? is it immediate or takes sometime?
Thakns
500 points per check in or what?
Here is the badges that gives you points on the Places App.
When I try to get the Places app it says “not available in your country” (the US). So can we check in through our facebook page? Do we need to have the regular facebook app to check in or can we just do it using our internet browser?
You can also check in using web. See one of the comments here: http://loyaltylobby.com/2016/11/29/new-le-club-accorhotels-places-app-badges-free-points-with-stays/
