Accor Hotels Hotel Loyalty 2012-Q2 promotions

Accor Hotels March 20-26 Global Sale

A|Club members and Accorhotels.com newsletter subscribers have the opportunity to book discount rates at hotels globally through several regional offers from March 20 to March 26, 2012. The promotional offers are regionalized and discounts from 30% to 50% off and 2-for-1 rates are offered. The discounts are based on BAR which is typically the best flexible cancellation rate. AAA and senior rates are typically 10% to 20% off BAR.

Accor Hotels Regional Discount Rate Offers link.

The catch is the big savings comes with big risk. These rates require full hotel stay prepayment at time of booking and no cancellation or changes are allowed. These Private Sale rates are nonrefundable.

Typically I avoid prepaid nonrefundable rates, but these deals might be to your liking if you feel your dates are set and the rate is low enough.

The Bangkok US$17 rate intrigued me. I didn’t search too hard, but found a $27 per night rate for All Seasons Bangkok Siam for a 3-night stay April 25-28, 2012.

The interesting thing here is all seasons branding tagline does not seem to apply for this booking:

No way will we charge a little extra here and there!
At all seasons, all-you-can-eat breakfast and access to the internet are included in the room price.

All Seasons is ranked a midscale hotel chain by STR Global.

Pullman is an upper upscale hotel brand like Westin, Hyatt, Hilton and Marriott. The rate for Pullman Bangkok King Tower is $70 per night. That looks like a good deal to me, but a quick look at Bangkok rates indicates this rate is about half of other hotels like Conrad, InterContinental, Le Meridien.

 

France: 50% off stay April 27-May 28.

Accor Hotels is a French based hotel chain and there are over 1,500 Accor brand hotels in France alone. In Europe there are nearly 2,500 hotels. This is the hotel chain to know when you are traveling the cities and countryside of Europe. Although in Spain there are now more Marriott brand hotels than Accor after the acquisition of AC Hotels by Marriott.
