If someone is considering Raffles in APAC for a 2N stay, don't burn your points. Buy a membership worth 19.5k and get value of more than 1,00,000₹ instead of burning 50,000 extra points.
This will hold well only if you do budget Accor stays.
2 Stayplus was a revaluation IMO
🤔 Am I the only one who does not find much use for the complimentary Buy One Get One (BOGO) nights that come with an Accor Plus Explorer membership?
I currently have 2 unused BOGO nights from my Explorer membership, and, it looks like they may go unused.
The dilemma 🤔 :
✅ I already have around 2.6 lakh Accor Reward points
✅ Another 50k HSBC points are waiting for the next Accor transfer bonus offer 😜
✅ Hotels for all of my vacations until December 2026 are already booked using Accor and Marriott points
So whenever I look at an Accor property, my first thought is: Why spend real cash when I can redeem points instead? 🤷♂️
❌I don’t see any point making cash booking on Accor (which is mendatory for the BOGO offer) as I have so much Accor points.
✅✅✅ Personally, I found the earlier version of Accor Plus more valuable, where one complimentary night was provided without requiring a paid stay. That benefit suited my travel pattern much better.
❓For those who also have a good number of Accor points, do you still find good value in the current BOGO nights benefit?
If yes, I’d genuinely love to know how and where do you it, and why do you find value in it. Share in the comments 👇👇👇
