Yes I think you need to have some Accor points in account to see points requirements for hotels

I am trying to apply for SC Ultimate but due to my PIN code being non-metro it doesn't even allow to submit the application. The nearest SC branch is a bit far (~100 km), is there any way get SC ultimate?

just confirmed with them on phone, for saver remaining amount has to be prepaid and cannot be done at checkout. For flexi this option is available

saver

looks like it does include taxes. but not able to book without paying remaining by card, so I guess will have to call them to keep the remaining amount pending to club it with on premise expenses and pay together at the checkout

I'm actually not that pro at this game. had cv points in my account so booked with that bom-bkk business for 52k. does seem high but I had no better use of cv points so went ahead with this.

Qantas does show bangkok air flights but it's 10,000 points which seems too high. only ~200 Rs taxes though
