IHG Status - nights?

[Rocks]

I am trying to ascertain how IHG status and calculations work but the website is less than clear,

They say that points don't expire but i am wondering how 'nights' are calculated and whether they expire

If anyone has some experience I would be interested to hear.

Just trying to ascertain whether working my way through levels or if I need to be doing a lot of trips anually

Thank you!

Reward points don't expire but status nights are based on the calendar year.

Points don't expire is a benefit of Silver and above. For a club member points will expire after 12 months of inactivity.

That said, yes, its the number of nights stayed over a calendar year.

Thank you both . Probably not worth me trying to increase status this year then with current Silver Elite status?

I am Platinum with Accor but was looking at also chasing status with IHG or Hilton

IHG Platinum status can be bought for $225 USD/year and you also get a free weekend night at an Intercontinental to boot:
