This promotion is a total mess!
I was looking into the 2500 bonus point offer this morning, with a view to booking the Ibis Styles Southbank for a one night stay on the $72 RHR rate (I should get to 30 nights in 2026 this way when combined with my other bookings, enabling me to retain platinum when I renew Explorer).
However, the
T&Cs seem to imply in places that only the 'Advance Saver' rate is eligible (or standard non-refundable rate if booked between 3-15 days out), and many hotels are marked 'Special Offer' if searching from that offer page with the rate itself described as 'Saver' (not 'Advance Saver'). Decided to roll the dice on booking the Ibis Styles Kingsgate for $78.40 on the ALL Accor+ Explorer Advance Saver rate (not marked 'Special Offer') and will whinge to customer service if the bonus doesn't come through.
Having said that, I hope you do get the points though.
