ITC Gold Tier Status Match - A Status Match You Should Not Miss

For frequent travellers, genuine status match opportunities are rare and even rarer when they come from a premium Indian hotel group. This time, ITC Hotels has launched a Club ITC Status Match that’s not only free but genuinely rewarding.



If you hold Gold or higher status with any major hotel or airline loyalty program, you can now match to Club ITC Gold, no additional stays or spend required.



Offer Details



Benefits of ITC Gold Tier


Here’s what you receive as an ITC Gold member:

  • 1 complimentary Suite Upgrade voucher
  • 25% discount on spa treatments
  • 20% discount on all-day dining
  • 30% discount on laundry services
  • 10% discount on Sleep merchandise


These perks apply across ITC Hotels, Welcomhotel, and Fortune properties, making them particularly valuable for domestic travellers.



Eligibility



You’re eligible for the match if you hold a Gold or higher tier with any major airline or hotel program, valid through 31 March 2026.



Accepted programs include (but aren’t limited to):



  • Marriott Bonvoy Gold or above
  • Accor Live Limitless Gold or Platinum
  • Air India Maharaja Club Gold
  • KrisFlyer Gold
  • Qatar Airways Gold


How to Apply


  1. Sign up for Club ITC (if you’re not already a member).
  2. Upload proof of your current loyalty status. Your membership card must clearly show your name, tier, and expiry date.
  3. Wait for verification. Gold status is usually activated within a few business days.


Validity and Renewal


  • Gold validity: Until 30 June 2026
  • Extension: Stay 5 nights by 30 June 2026 to extend your Gold status until 31 December 2026
  • If not extended: You’ll be downgraded to Silver, which remains valid until December 2026


Why This Offer Matters



Unlike many regional programs that offer limited benefits, Club ITC Gold provides tangible advantages even for casual guests. The dining and spa discounts alone can offset the effort of applying and the suite upgrade voucher adds a real touch of luxury.



If you’ve got elite status with another program that’s sitting idle, this is the perfect time to make it work for you. Apply early, before the program is flooded with match requests.

So I called up ITC to check on this "no additional cost for accompanying spouse" benefit under the Gold Tier. So apparently,.some hotels do have a difference in rate when booking for single occupancy vs double occupancy. Case in point: ITC Grand Chola, Chennai. There's a difference of about 1500 post taxes. So as per the customer care, I can book with single occupancy and 2 people can stay (spouse only). However, I was told that breakfast will not be included for the second person in this case and has to be paid for. Breakfast at Grand chola is about 1800 post taxes.

I'm assuming in most hotels this breakfast charges will trump the difference in single vs double occupancy charges (unless you are not planning to have breakfast at the hotel)

So, net net, this benefit is pretty useless
If this is the case then yes. So they are charging double occupancy on breakfast by not providing breakfast as complimentary to second person.

Yes i too spoke with them and got the same response, this feature not worth it.
 
It is only good for upgrade and bit more green point than previous tiers that is all. Anyway I may stay for few days and let me see what the gold tier experience is it. What they can offer
