Hi all - recent Accor Plus Silver member thanks to Amex Platinum.

Have been searching the website for these advertised 'red hot rooms'. I've searched multiple hotels on multiple dates across multiple countries within the specified timeframes and I can't actually seem to find any rooms at the advertised (usually half price) rates?!

I can only see minimal discounts or usually just standard pricing even when searching months in advance for a random Tuesday night at an airport ibis hotel etc. Am I doing something wrong? Do these red hot deals actually exist?

Thanks in advance for your help.

They're pretty spotty by nature. They do list them on this page, but not all of them are on that list either. Otherwise, you'll just have to come across them by chance by searching on Accor (while logged in).

Thanks team - I ended up finding some 'Red Hot Rooms' randomly as mentioned when just doing a general search and noticing particular hotels were cheap....booked the Sofitel in Singapore for half price.

Still couldn't actually find any cheap rooms on offer for all the advertised hotels!
 
I booked a RHR deal for Sofitel in Singapore a few months ago. For some reason, for me the RHR would only show up if I was not logged in, but put my Accor loyalty number into the search. I only found it by sheer luck. It doesn't seem to be the case now, but perhaps that's also another avenue? Such is Accor's system...

Yes this is an ongoing issue with the Accor site .. try Incognito mode in your browser if not.
 
So frustrating that Red Hot Rooms can't be booked using Accor Points. What a great way to reward my loyalty! Even worse, it seems when the hotels have a RHR, it seems to cancel out their other cheapest rate so that if I want to use points it ends up being more expensive. Thanks Accor!
