Accor recently revitalised its two subscription cards – the ALL PLUS ibis card and the ALL PLUS Voyageur card.
Targeted at repeat Accor customers and valid across 21 brands, we wanted to take a closer look at ALL PLUS Voyageur to see how HfP readers could gain value from the card.
Tomorrow we will be reviewing a hotel in Hong Kong I booked using the ALL PLUS Voyageur card.
What is the ALL PLUS Voyageur card?
The ALL PLUS Voyageur card is a subscription card that offers various additional benefits to regular Accor customers in exchange for an annual fee of €199.
The card benefits are:
- 20% discount across 11 luxury and premium brands and 15% off at ten midscale and economy brands (discount valid on all public rates, not just Best Flexible Rate)
- discount valid against up to two rooms per stay
- guaranteed room availability up to two days before arrival
- 20 free status nights in Accor Live Limitless
The majority of Accor brands take part, although not all. Here’s a list of brands that are involved with the Voyageur card:
- Luxury: Sofitel, SO/, Sofitel LEGEND
- Premium: Grand Mercure, MGallery, 21C Museum Hotels, Mondrian, Mövenpick, Pullman, The Sebel, Adagio Premium
- Midscale: Handwritten Collection, Adagio Original, Mercure, Novotel, Tribe
- Economy: ibis budget, ibis, ibis Styles, greet, Adagio Access
The 20 free status nights given with the card get you instant Silver status in Accor Live Limitless (key benefits are a welcome drink and the possibility of late check out) and means you only need to do another 10 nights to get Gold status.
How does the card work in practice?
To help us really understand the value of the card, we were given a Voyageur membership by Accor to try out. I needed to book a night at the AKI Hong Kong – MGallery during my visit to Hong Kong last month so I documented the process of using the card during the booking process.
You need to insert your membership card number when searching for hotels on the Accor homepage. Click ‘special rates’ in the search options and pop it in where it says ‘Membership and loyalty programme’.
Here is the price without the Voyageur cardnumber:
…and here it is with it applied:
I was shown four pricing options:
- 20% Saver Rate (ALL PLUS Voyageur) – £369
- 20% Saver Rate (ALL PLUS Voyageur) + breakfast – £403
- ALL Membership Rate – £425
- Flexible Rate + breakfast – £515
You can clearly see the Voyageur card saving. I picked the option with breakfast and completed the rest of the booking as normal.
You can read my review of AKI Hong Kong tomorrow.
Conclusion
If you are the sort of person who does regular Accor stays at participating brands you could get real value from the ALL PLUS Voyageur card.
The card also offers a good way of leapfrogging your way to Gold status in ALL – Accor Live Limitless – which comes with a room upgrade and the possibility of both early check-in and late check-out – with just an extra 10 night stays.
