If you stay at an Intercontinental ~twice a year I'd say it is. The weekend night alone makes it pay for itself

Yeah, just got an offer, as well

Is it only intercontinental thing?

Yeah, I checked. IHG has different tiers

Yes, for staying in Intercontinental Hotels and automatic Platinum elite status at other IHG properties.

Is Platinium worth it comparing to gold?
