FAQ

IHG questions

Do I need a IHG One Rewards account?

No. The member rate is what IHG quotes an anonymous visitor who is not logged in; it comes back as its own rows with member_only: true and under lowest.member. Points come back the same way, without any login.

What does a IHG shop cost?

1 credit live, a quarter of that from cache; errors and unknown codes are free. On the Free plan's 250 credits that is 250 shops a month; on Growth (15,000) 15,000. A /calendar night is 0.1 credit through IHG's native calendar.

Where do I find IHG hotel codes?

GET /hotels?chain=ihg&q=<city or address> returns IHG's own property codes around a place, nearest first — CHIMM is one. Codes are the chain's internal identifiers, not shared with any other chain.
