IHG Hotels Canada Government Rate Plan

IHG Hotels, like all the others, have negotiated rates for government travelers that sometimes also include leisure travel.

IHG affiliated hotels in Canada offer discounts for eligible government employees who travel on official business. These rates are eligible for points, elite benefits, and night credits.

You can access this offer on IHG’s website here.

Note that, unlike the US Government rate, Canada is only available for those on official business (the US one is also valid on eligible employees’ leisure travel).

Here are the rate requirements:

To receive your discounted rate, be sure to present your official identification or work orders when you check in at any of our participating hotels; many of which also offer special amenities for government travellers, such as free continental breakfast, free local phone calls and other services included in your government hotel rate. Provincial and/or Territorial Governments participating in the Government of Canada Hotel Program should select the Government of Canada option for booking outside of their province/territory.
