    Does the stay + night mean book one night, get one free? Or one free night?

    • hfwangau on 10/04/2023 - 19:14
      +1

      no, you don't have to book more than 1 night, it's just getting 1 night for free (e.g. you book for an overnight stay, you don't pay anything)

      • tabboo on 10/04/2023 - 19:15
        +3

        Right, so I can book a stay in a 5 star place for one night, and it becomes free? Looking for something for my anniversary

        • bauser99 on 10/04/2023 - 19:18

          Subject to availability, so if you are trying to book a 5 star hotel during a weekend or other busy periods you need to book well in advance. Akin to finding business class seats on Qantas using frequent flyer points!

        • arctan on 10/04/2023 - 19:19
          +1

          Actually I remember now, you do get the free night at Sofitel darling harbor but if you want the better room with good view you have to top up.

        • hfwangau on 10/04/2023 - 19:19
          +11

          Pretty much, the simplest way to find your hotel for free stay is from:

          1. https://www.accorplus.com/au/

          2. STAY - > search with 'Stay Plus' (Yes)

          • Indomie5 on 10/04/2023 - 19:49

            @hfwangau: Can you confirm if I can use it for "Garrya Nijo Castle Kyoto" ?

            • hfwangau on 10/04/2023 - 19:52
              +2

              @Indomie5: checked for 1st May, you cannot use at 'Garrya Nijo Castle Kyoto', but can use at 'Mercure Kyoto Station'.

        • nijatk on 10/04/2023 - 19:22
          +1

          yes, google “stay plus night” and get the details. Works like an airline reward seat, so there’s only so much available on any night and it covers the cost of a standard room (no upgrades/suite etc). i’ve used to stay at the Sofitel Darling Harbour, so definitely not limited to economy hotels.

        • Hugh G Rection on 10/04/2023 - 20:11

          wow, 5 star hotel. that is very fancy.

    • BruceJack on 10/04/2023 - 20:43

      Free night generally capped at $200~. Need to pay excess.

      • b0b0 on 10/04/2023 - 21:22

        Disagree

        • Meconium on 10/04/2023 - 21:25

          Proof?

          • b0b0 on 10/04/2023 - 21:30

            @Meconium: Do you have the proof of the cap? or is it just a case of not being able to find availability at the high tier hotels?

            I have booked room at Sofitel before using the free night, I can share screenshot of that but I really can't be bothered sorry… Seems like other members have done it too. Try harder:/

            (It was also my anniversary so they threw in a free champaigne)

          • sherbules on 10/04/2023 - 22:03

            @Meconium: I just booked a sofitel sydney room (for november) using this deal with no cap, $0. The original price was over $400!

      • bauser99 on 10/04/2023 - 21:26
        +2

        Not true - I used the free night at Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour several times where room rates are > $300 - having said that, obviously availability is limited so for to 5 star properties you need to book well in advance. Note the free night will only get you into the cheapest room, if you want a better room or a suite you'll have to pay the difference.

  • Micky14 on 10/04/2023 - 19:27
    +29

    Or you can buy Malaysia version.
    https://www.accorplus.com/my/benefits/
    1090MYR ≈ 372AUD for 2 free nights.

    • I like freestuff on 10/04/2023 - 19:32

      Found this in their T&C's though:

      "If your membership includes more than one Stay Plus night, please note that only one Stay Plus complimentary night can be used per stay. Multiple Stay Plus complimentary nights cannot be used during the same stay."

      https://www.accorplus.com/benefits/more-nights/stay-plus-ben…

      Not sure if you could just book two 'seperate' bookings right after each other though if you wanted two nights in a row.

      • Micky14 on 10/04/2023 - 19:42
        +11

        I found this when I bought the Malaysia version too. And you can't also use it consecutive booking. Luckily my husband has 1 free night via Amex platinum card. So I can make a A.B.A booking for 3 nights.

        • heathy on 10/04/2023 - 20:26
          +1

          Any issues at check in? Do you just let front desk know that you would prefer to not move room twice?

          Thinking that my wife can book the B night in cash?

            +1

            @heathy: Haven't traveled yet, but yes, just let them know in advance. I emailed them.

            Yep, I think that will do.

          • nightelves on 10/04/2023 - 22:31

            @heathy: Hotels is Australia did not mind you booking consecutive stays using the stay plus benefit. However I found that hotels in S.E.A often enforce this rules so I would not advice doing this under your name. I was caught out last time in Vietnam doing this.

        • nightelves on 18/04/2023 - 20:51

          So in the app it wouldn't let you book consecutively?

      • georgegeorge31 on 11/04/2023 - 07:44

        Still trying to work out if this or the HK one is better? Surely this one is but you just have to use the two free nights individually at different times. But it’s still a better deal right?

        Or am I missing something?

    • Hugh G Rection on 10/04/2023 - 20:03

      damn, this is a better deal. i should have waited, i got this same deal back in january i think.

    • Schumi5 on 10/04/2023 - 20:15

      Is it just the Malaysian VPN that's needed or would I need to to put a Malaysian address etc.

        I used my AU phone number and address when I bought it.

                  @freedomofspeech: I'm 99% sure you don't need to apply for it. I did it years ago, so. I'm not 100% It's basically a debit card that uses funds already in the account, so it should be for everyone.

      Almost better getting 2 HK membership. As you get the two night plus 50% food discount for 4 people.

      • lickjimmy1 on 11/04/2023 - 06:44

        Good call. I'm assuming they allow this when 4 people are dining together ?

      • bluepop on 11/04/2023 - 17:50

        You can pay for a supplementary membership for this. When i did the HK one it was only $30 more

    • r0xz on 11/04/2023 - 00:11

      just signed up from MY, but I can't see the 2 free nights benefit, and even searching for "Stay Plus" doesn't bring up any results. Any idea?

I've jumped to a live chat yesterday afternoon and the rep told me that my account was previously deactivated (stopped using them many years ago but they still kept my email & details for some dodgy reason, not good!) and they need some time to manually 'fix' (whatever that means) my account in the back end.

    • Helmutson on 25/04/2023 - 11:36

      Trying to sign up through Accor Plus MY but it will not let me as an existing member. When I type in my email address (used for existing membership) it recognises it and asks that I sign if first. When I sign in it redirects me to a renewal page which does not allow the Explorer Plus option and also defaults to Australian pricing.
      I'll wait till the existing membership expires (in 4 days) and I'll try again. Otherwise I'll use a different email and get them to link my points/accounts at a later date.

  • Capitalshark on 10/04/2023 - 19:43

    Surprised the benefits are limited to Asia and Au/NZ pretty much whether you buy the HK or AU one. no good for my upcoming Europe trip, especially since they are a Euro company

    • bauser99 on 10/04/2023 - 19:46
      +1

      Indeed Accor Plus only covers Asia Pacific, not good for Europe!

    • bluepop on 10/04/2023 - 19:53

      You can book hotels on their app for Europe and they are about $10 a night cheaper than elsewhere with Accor Plus. But the Accor hotels arent necessarily the ones youd want to stay at.

    • johnyBgood on 10/04/2023 - 21:44

      If i search Paris hotels filtered with "stay plus" it shows a couple of hotels. Does that mean i cannot use the 1 night complimentary from this deal in these hotels in Paris?

      EDIT: NVM, read the facts and cannot find France in the list of countries.

      since you selected the 'TRAVELLER' option which doesn't include the free night, you will need to select 'EXPLORER' option

  • Hargen on 10/04/2023 - 20:00

    Last week I booked Quay Suite in Melbourne for this week that normally retails for $350 AUD a night, so the free night definitely is worth quite a lot if used well (Sofitel Melbourne on Collins is also available that retailed for similar price)
