GHA Discovery Loses Rydges Effective December 1, 2021

A LoyaltyLobby reader forwarded us an email that they had received from GHA Discovery, announcing that the Rydges hotels will exit the system on December 1, 2021.

There have been 51 Rydges hotels in Australia and New Zealand that have been part of GHA Discovery, but benefits are not honored for stays booked after December 1.

Conclusion

This is undoubtedly a blow to the GHA Discovery as they lose roughly 10% of their hotel portfolio overnight when Rydges exits on December 1, 2021. They do, however, have NH Hotels joining in 2022 with around 360 hotels.
