Firstly, one voucher entitles you to one-night upgrade only. By contrast, with Marriott you are given a five-night upgrade voucher at 50 nights and another one at 75.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More importantly, this voucher applies to a very selective brands only, and a few countries are completely excluded &#8211; this includes France, where the Accor group is headquartered. It&#8217;s fair to say the voucher was a TOTAL JOKE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it appears that <a href=\"https:\/\/all.accor.com\/loyalty-program\/legal\/terms-and-conditions\/pdf-snu.en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Accor has quietly changed their terms and conditions<\/a>. There is now a definitive list of participating brands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/accor-suite-night-upgrade-applicable-brands.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/accor-suite-night-upgrade-applicable-brands.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7472\" width=\"400\" height=\"113\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/accor-suite-night-upgrade-applicable-brands.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/accor-suite-night-upgrade-applicable-brands-300x85.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/06\/accor-suite-night-upgrade-applicable-brands-768x217.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a shame that mid-range brands like Novotel and Mercure are excluded, but the inclusion of Raffles and Fairmont is very welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, it no longer mentions any country-wide exclusions. A list of non-eligible hotels are provided instead. However, note the disclaimer at the bottom saying that this list is non-exhaustive and may change anytime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to when it came out at the beginning, I must say this is some big improvement. However, the voucher still cannot be redeemed online. You must phone Accor&#8217;s customer service, so they will get in contact with the hotel, and it may involve a lot of back-and-forth with an unpredictable outcome. I don&#8217;t understand why they cannot implement a system just like Marriott, but well, this is Accor we are talking about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Accor introduced their refurbished loyalty programme All Live Limitless last year, and one enhancement to Platinum&#8217;s benefits were two suite night upgrade vouchers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7556","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-accor-all-limitless"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7556","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7556"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7556\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7634,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7556\/revisions\/7634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7556"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7556"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7556"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
