Fabulous Fridays: Earning IHG Rewards Club Points & Discounts On F&B Spend In Asia Through December, 30 2022

This week our Fabulous Friday is about a current promotion that IHG Rewards Club is running in Southeast Asia and South Korea, offering IHG points and up to 20% discount at participating hotels.

IHG has sent out an email about the promotion this week and I decided to put it to the test last night, visiting one of my favorite outlets in Bangkok – the Bar Yard rooftop bar at the Kimpton.

Under this new promotion which is copying the mechanism of Hyatt and Marriott, IHG Rewards members can earn 250 points per US$25 worth of F&B spending and receive discounts between 15-20% depending on the property/outlet (on food only).

You can find further details about this promotion here on IHG’s website.

There’s more to a meal than just food. Dine with us or order a self pick-up from our participating restaurants and bars across Southeast Asia and South Korea, and save up to 20% off your bill. Plus, earn 250 IHG® Rewards points for every USD $25 spent*. Turn any meal into an occasion to remember, with our IHG® Rewards Dining Privileges.

Dine, save and earn until 30 December 2022 when you present your membership card or virtual card on the IHG® App.

To view the full list of participating restaurants and bars, click here.

The list doesn’t contain every single IHG hotel but there are many included that are worthwhile to visit.

I really like the Kimpton Hotel in Bangkok and it’s nearby my home so quite easy to visit and try this campaign, especially to see if the points post as promised.

We went and had a decent amount of food and a few drinks, then when it came to the bill the staff was well aware of the promotion which surprised me in a positive way.

The discount is absolutely minimal. For the Kimpton, the discount is 15% and it’s applied to food only. Alcoholic beverages are not considered for discount unlike with Marriott Bonvoy.

The discount is irrespective of the status level with IHG. You’ll get the same amount of points and discount no matter if you’re a basic member or a Spire Elite.

After settling the bill I promptly received an email from IHG:

This is extremely fast and efficient. To be honest I didn’t expect it to go this smooth but let’s give credit where it’s due – this was a good experience and a great dinner before I’m off to Korea tomorrow.

I can remember when the only program that offered points for walk-in (non-staying) guests was Starwood Preferred Guest and they used manual forms to credit the points through an internal department of the hotel. It often took weeks, sometimes months for these points to show up. IF they ever showed up.

Since most of these transactions are now digitalized it’s just a consequence that credits show up instantly.

Conclusion

IHG has opened a new campaign where members who walk into participating hotels in South East Asia and South Korea can earn points and receive a discount on dining. The promotion will last until December 30, 2022 and you have to check the list which hotels are participating for this campaign (not all do).

I put it to the test and visited an IHG Hotel last night, having dinner at the Kimpton Bangkok, and it worked perfectly. I would make sure to have the link to the promotion ready to show the staff when you visit the outlet. In my case, they knew all about the campaign which isn’t a given based on my experience.

These are the complete Terms & Conditions:

The IHG® Rewards Dining Privileges discount is applicable at participating restaurants and bars at IHG® hotels and is available from 01 January – 30 December 2022 to all IHG® Rewards members dining at IHG® hotels located in Southeast Asia and South Korea with or without a stay at the participating hotel.
