How often do I need to stay at a Priority Club hotel to maintain my status?

The frequency of stays required to maintain status within the Priority Club, now known as IHG Rewards, can vary based on the level of membership you hold. Generally, the IHG Rewards program has several tiers: Club, Gold, Platinum, and Spire Elite. For most members, maintaining status typically involves earning a set number of qualifying nights or points within a calendar year. For instance, to retain Gold status, a member usually needs to complete a minimum number of qualifying stays or accumulate sufficient points. Platinum members often need to achieve a higher threshold, while Spire Elite status usually requires even more stays or points. Members are encouraged to consistently utilize IHG hotels, as this not only helps in retaining status but also allows them to earn additional rewards and benefits. It is advisable for members to regularly check the current IHG Rewards webpage, where they can find detailed information specific to their membership level and the requirements associated with it. Keeping track of stays and points can ensure one’s status is maintained throughout the year.
