Quick Thoughts
If you have any upcoming stays at a Crowne Plaza, this can be a good way to save up to 20%, or earn you bonus points worth even more than that if you value Membership Rewards at greater than 1cpp.
IHG Rewards Club launched their fall promotion yesterday, so this Crowne Plaza Amex Offer might be a great way of helping save you money towards completing one or more of your tasks. I think I’ve seen people mention elsewhere that one of their tasks required a Crowne Plaza stay, so this offer would be even more perfect if you have that same task.
You can currently earn up to 12% cashback when booking paid Crowne Plaza stays through a cashback portal, or 5 miles per dollar when booking through the American Airlines AAdvantage eShopping portal.
If you have a variety of Amex credit cards, you can load both the statement credit and Membership Rewards versions of the offer. I tried the multi-tab trick but it didn’t work with this offer like it did with the Marriott Amex Offer.

There really have been a lot of hotel amex offers lately: marriott, spg, hampton/hilton, and now ihg. I wonder if it means anything.
[…] as it’s the start of the month, there have been several new Amex Offers today (e.g. Crowne Plaza and Walmart Online […]
I have the “Crown Plaza Stays” as one of my IHG Challenges, but it requires *2* Stays.
So…the obvious question is whether the $250 can be cumulative or has to be all one charge?
Unfortunately the terms of the offer don’t state whether or not 2+ charges will count. Based on past experience with hotel offers though, they do tend to allow for more than one transaction.
Interesting – thanks for the update. I found one particular Crown Plaza as low as $68/night after taxes so it would probably be more advantageous to just go that route anyway. I’ll have to see how our travel plans play out over the next few months, whether a mattress run would be better or if we can work reasonable Crown Plaza stays into a planned trip. Either way, thanks for the perspective! I know it’s not a guarantee but helps a lot in deciding how I want to place my bets so to speak 🙂
