Points

A three-night weekend stay would cost you 155,000 points and $135.

Cash

The cash rate for that three-night would be 953.15, but you need to deduct the scam fee of $135 to make the rates comparable. The cash price is $818.15.

Conclusion

The value of a point used towards this award is the previous standard, around 0.5 cents each (0.52 to be exact). It is nasty that you are required to pay a scam fee when using your IHG Rewards points for stays at the Venetian.
