Priority Club Insider

What’s the difference between the Priority Club loyalty club and the Ambassador program?

So much confusion, so here are few pointers:

Priority Club Status and hence benefits applies to:*

• Crowne Plaza Hotels
• Hotel Indigo
• Holiday Inn Hotels
• Holiday Inn Express Hotels (or Express by Holiday Inn)
• Staybridge Suites
• Candlewood Suites

Ambassador and Royal Ambassador status and hence benefits only apply to:

• Intercontinental Hotels & Resorts

What about the Points?

• Points earned in any hotel go towards your Priority Club status

How long does the Ambassador Status last?

• One year from when you join – this does not synchronise with your Priority club year which always runs from January to December

* There have been reported instanstances where some  Intercontinental Hotels have given upgrades to Platinum members without ambassador status – this is not a normal benefit and should be seen as a bonus!
