My Offer
Personally, I’m underwhelmed with my Accelerate Offer. I’ve only actually followed through with these offers once before, to the tune of 31,400 points for 2 stays, one of which I already had planned. Unfortunately, I’m not so lucky this time around. Check out my offers below:
When all is said and done, I’d have to stay a bare minimum of 5 nights, across 2 stays for all the points. One of those stays would have to be in May, and one would have to be in a Hotel Indigo or Even hotel. My total haul would be 42,500 IHG points. That puts me at 8,500 IHG points earned per night, or a value of $42.5 per night (I value IHG points at a conservative half cent per point).
With no hotel stays coming up in May or June, this one just doesn’t cut it. Check to see what your offers for Accelerate Q2 2018 are on the IHG site. Hopefully you did better than me!

do you know if advance purchase stays count as qualifying stays for Acelerate?
No mention of that in the terms on my offer, so I think they will qualify!
I’m a bit better than Q1, I needed to stay 35 nights as my second goal… Wasn’t even close.
