Hey there, fellow travellers and foodies! If you’re anything like me, you love a good deal, especially when it comes to travel and dining. That’s why I have to share my love for Accor Plus – it’s like a secret weapon for anyone who enjoys exploring new places, and indulging in delicious food all while enjoying amazing discounts.

Let me take you through the perks of Accor Plus from my own experiences, and why I think it’s totally worth it.

What is Accor Plus?

In case you haven’t heard, Accor Plus is this amazing hotel, dining, and lifestyle membership program from Accor Hotels. They’ve got properties all over Asia Pacific, and being a member opens up a world of savings and exclusive benefits.

Accor is also a partner with Qantas (and you know I’m a Qantas point girly) so you can enjoy the perks of both memberships together! 

Why I Love My Accor Plus Membership

1. Sweet Savings on Stays

First off, the member rates are unbeatable. You get 10% off public room rates, I’ve stayed at some incredible places, from the luxurious Sofitel to the cozy, budget-friendly Ibis and we love Pepper’s apartment-style hotels for the perfect family getaways. Trust me, the savings really add up, making those spontaneous weekend getaways or luxurious resort trips a lot more doable.

2. The Magic of Stay Plus

Here’s one of my favourites – the Stay Plus benefit. Every year, you get a complimentary night at participating Accor hotels. Yes, you read that right. Free night! I used mine for a staycation at the Pullman Hyde Park in Sydney, and it was pure bliss. This perk alone makes the membership pay for itself.

3. Delicious Dining Discounts

If you love food as much as I do, this perk will have you swooning. You get up to 50% off your food bill at over 1,400 hotel restaurants. Whether it’s a fancy dinner or a casual brunch, the savings make dining out so much more fun. Plus, there’s 15% off drinks in Asia, which is perfect for happy hour lovers.

4. VIP Treatment

As an Accor Plus member, you automatically get Silver status in the ALL – Accor Live Limitless loyalty program. This means extra perks like bonus points on stays, welcome drinks, and more. It’s a nice little upgrade that adds extra sparkle to your travels. No more waiting in long lines after a tiring journey and kick off your holiday with a drink in hand. I know I’ve been so happy for this after hours of travel.

5. Unwind with More Escapes Packages

Accor Plus also offers member-exclusive packages like the More Escapes. These packages are perfect for unwinding, featuring all-inclusive dining options, spa treatments, and more. It’s everything you need for an unforgettable holiday wrapped up in one convenient package.

This is awesome if you just want everything to be sorted for you, and your only consideration is which swimsuit to pack! A nice change for us mums 😉

6. Access to Red Hot Rooms

Another of my favourite perks is the access to Red Hot Rooms, where you can save up to 50% on hotel or resort accommodations. These offers are exclusive to Accor Plus members and provide great savings on a wide selection of Accor hotels. It’s perfect for those last-minute travel plans when you want to score a fantastic deal.

It can also be a great way to see new places you might not have seen before. Just like snagging reward flights, I have been to some incredible places I’ve never even considered before!!

7. Exclusive Events and Experiences

From gourmet dinners with top chefs to VIP access at major events, Accor Plus members get invited to some pretty cool happenings. We got to experience the incredible Accor VIP suite at Accor Stadium for the recent Matilda’s game, only possible thanks to our Accor membership!

How I Make the Most of My Membership

Plan Ahead and Save Big

I always keep an eye out for member sales and book my stays early. This way, I get the best deals and make the most of my Stay Plus night.

Explore New Places

If you’re just looking for an epic deal and can be flexible, then keep your eyes on the Red Hot Room offers you get in your inbox!! You can get up to 50% off stays at some of the most incredible luxurious locations.

With so many hotels across Asia Pacific, Accor Plus gives me the perfect excuse to explore new destinations. Each trip is an adventure waiting to happen, with the comfort of knowing I’ll have a great place to stay.

Dine Out and Enjoy

The dining discounts are a game-changer. We love trying out new restaurants, and with Accor Plus, I can do it more often without breaking the bank. It’s great for date nights, family dinners, or just treating yourself.

Plus the perk of not having to leave the hotel 😉 especially if you have kids – sometimes it’s just easier!!

Be Rewarded

Make sure you link your ALL account and Qantas Frequent Flyer. By linking your accounts you can get rewarded when you fly on Qantas flights and stay with Accor in Asia Pacific. That’s in addition to the usual rewards of your current programmes. Earning you rewards more often and more quickly to put toward your next trips!!

Is It Worth It?

In my opinion, absolutely! If you travel often or just love a good staycation, Accor Plus is a no-brainer. The savings on accommodation and dining, the free night’s stay, and all the little extras make it incredible value.

Even if you have just a weekend away planned, utilising your membership can save you hundreds of dollars!!

Span that across just a few trips in the year and you will be absolutely laughing. Already this year, we have easily saved hundreds if not thousands across room rates and dining. As well as the value of the points we have accrued across Accor and Qantas!!

Final Thoughts

Accor Plus has genuinely enhanced our travel experience, as we travel often, the perks and savings have been phenomenal. It’s like having a VIP pass to some of the best hotels and restaurants out there.

As a family, hotels can often get expensive, or don’t have enough room! But the expansive range of hotels, including Peppers and Mantra apartments and resorts, offer great options for us. Add in the membership perks, and it makes the holidays much more enjoyable and affordable.

And until July 21, 2024, you can get BONUS 2000 REWARD POINTS when you join as an Explorer member!!
