Holiday Inn Lisbon was the second of four IHG hotels we stayed in central Lisbon during our two weeks in the city. Be aware there is another IHG hotel, Holiday Inn Lisbon Continental in the same area about 1.2 km away near Metro Pequeno Campo. We stayed at both hotels. The distinguishing feature of Holiday…
My recent trip to Europe included 11 hotel nights in Portugal, 9 in Greece, 2 in Spain, 1 in Canada and 1 in California. 20 of those 24 hotel nights were at IHG hotels. 12 of those 20 nights at IHG were booked using IHG points after I arrived in Europe due to necessary changes…

Airline frequent flyer programs were much simpler for me to understand than hotel loyalty programs when I started collecting miles and points over 20 years ago. The problem with figuring hotel loyalty programs for a leisure traveler is the lack of experience when you have no necessity to spend 50 to 100 nights a year…
