Exploring the ALL Accor Signature Absolute Membership: Is It Worth the Investment?

I am Accor Plus gold and my wife is Accor Plus silver
the room price on mine is 45000 for 6 nights in Hong Kong and on hers it is only 40000 for the same 6 nights in the same hotel in Hong Kong.
How is this possible?
Not sure about it, but it is a good observation. Need to check this for more number of instances to conclude anything

This should not happen. Please see in some apps rates are exclusive of taxes and in others inclusive of taxes
I am platinum and always gets rates inclusive of all taxes but my son is gold and is getting rates exclusive of taxes

Are you the same card prof on the YouTube channel?
 
Currently there is Black Friday discount going on for 15%. Anyone planning to buy this membership? How will you use it to get maximum returns?
I already purchased one and planning to buy more with family and friends
I am going to use it for my stays and future vacations. I like to travel in lean season, so either rates are low or redhot rooms are available.

I assume this spend belongs to travel catagory. This will earn 5x reward points on Atlas credit card.
It means for 1,00,000 Rs spend we will get 5000 miles or 10000 Accor points or 18000rs value. Quite good.
 
Starting from zero is fine. Everyone starts from zero from every Jan anyways.

What I am saying is, you are staying 10 nights + 20 coming from Accor plus renewal will take you to Platinum if you are Gold already
Nope. If you are gold for any reason other than nights (achieved gold last year or received gold from status match etc), you start from zero nights and you get platinum only with 60 nights (can include Accor plus, but total must be 60 nights). The only other option is to get 14k status points.

what price u purchased this membership? Even without discount, 1st Jan is best time to purchase this correct ? if target is to achieve Platinum, as status points will expire in December even if i get this 15% discount.
 
just for general information--
For Accor hotels, booking room nights last minute during the first 14 days prior to check in are expensive (regular prices or more than regular prices)

But around 30 days prior to check-in you will get the lowest rates. (Upto 30% cheaper than regular prices)
More than 30 days prior to check in, the rates will be the regular prices.
Everyone kindly give your inputs on this debatable topic

If I am Gold by purchasing signature now, will it reset on 1st Jan'25? Reset to Classic or Silver?

Okay... I have 19 status nights for this year and I am Accor gold. I will check with Accor plus lady who calls up for renewals if I will get upgraded to Platinum by renewing Accor plus again this year. Will update

Renew it online whenever you get a good deal or discount.
These offline agents on phone need to be paid a salary and need to earn commission

My Accor plus is ending on 30th Nov. So either I will have to pass the renewal this time or pay cash... mostly I am thinking of passing and renewing early next year so that all status nights don't get lost, but I will go back to Silver
 
Signature will not make u gold in this.. if u r gold now then next yr u will be gold
Here is my scenario - Haven't stayed in Accor. So classic.
Planning to stay from Jan and would stay atleast 15-20 days in the year. Considering the current Black Friday offer it comes 83k instead of 97k.
Does it make sense to buy now or from Jan, considering the status points earned for Nov and Dec will expire but I save Rs 14k,

Signature works on elite points basis, not elite nights. If you can wait until August for gold status and you usually spend a lot, Signature will work well.
If you need status by nights, Accor plus is probably a better choice.
