ALL – Accor Live Limitless Elite Status

Let’s review all of the major benefits of ALL – Accor Live Limitless elite status:

MyResorts Benefits

In addition, if you’re staying at a resort property in Asia or Oceania, you’ll get the following additional benefits through the MyResorts program:

ibis BUSINESS Card

Accor also offers a fee-based ibis BUSINESS Card for €90 (~$105) annually. Benefits include a 10% room and restaurant/bar discount, guaranteed room availability up to 48 hours before your stay, and all the benefits of ALL Gold status at over 2,000 ibis, ibis Styles, and ibis budget hotels.

Value of ALL – Accor Live Limitless Elite Status

ALL Silver offers little in the way of hotel benefits, but some of the selling points of this tier include late checkout (subject to availability) and a welcome drink.

ALL Gold gets you category room upgrades (subject to availability, excluding suites), a welcome amenity upon check-in, and early check-in or late checkout.

ALL Platinum is where it really starts to get interesting because you’re entitled to 2 Suite Night Upgrades, as well as premium Wi-Fi, early check-in, late checkout, complimentary breakfast every day at Asia Pacific properties, access to Executive Lounges (excludes Fairmont Gold), complimentary soft drinks from the minibar, ironing services, and hotel restaurant and bar benefits.

ALL Diamond is the top-tier status that gets you complimentary breakfast on weekends worldwide (in addition to daily breakfast at Asia Pacific properties), 4 dining and spa reward vouchers (worth €25 (~$29) each), and the ability to gift someone Gold status.

Bottom Line: ALL Platinum is probably the best tier to pursue. You’ll get the most incremental perks, including breakfast in Asia Pacific, check-in and checkout benefits, as well as access to Executive Lounges and 2 Suite Night Upgrades.

Earning ALL – Accor Live Limitless Elite Status

ALL – Accor Live Limitless status is earned on a calendar-year basis. You can earn all elite status tiers except Diamond status based on stays in a calendar year. ALL Diamond requires a significant amount of eligible spending during your stays to qualify and cannot be achieved through stays alone.

For example, if you want to qualify for Platinum status, you must either stay at least 60 nights in a calendar yearor make €5,600 (~$6,520) in eligible purchases during your stays every year. That’s because you’ll earn 25 status points for every €10 (~$12) spent. You need 14,000 status points to qualify for ALL Platinum.

Stays at Mama Shelter, Adagio, Adagio Access, ibis, and ibis Styles are not eligible to accrue status points.

If you generally tend to book fewer stays but spend more at the property during each stay, it might be easier to qualify based on status points via purchases.

On the other hand, if you tend to book lots of stays but spend less during each stay, it’ll probably be easier to qualify based on nights.

Here’s how many status points you’ll earn by brand:

With all that being said, here’s the minimum required spending to qualify for each elite tier, assuming you are earning 25 status points per €10 (~$12) spent.

Once you’ve earned elite status, you’ll keep it for the remainder of the current calendar year and through the end of the next year.

How To Earn Reward Points

There are plenty of ways to earn Reward points, and the most obvious is to book stays with its brands.

Earning Points on Stays

Base Points: ALL – All Accor Live Limitless members earn 5 to 25 points per €10 spent. Classic members earn 5 points per €10 (~$12) spent at Adagio Access, Jo&Joe, and Greet properties. That goes up to 10 points per €10 spent at Mantra, Peppers, BreakFree, Art Series, and Adagio properties. Classic members also earn 12.5 points per €10 spent at Ibis, Ibis Styles, and Mama Shelter. Lastly, Classic members will earn 25 points per €10 spent at all other Accor brands.

Branded and Partnered Credit Cards

Capital One Miles Credit Cards

Capital One miles can be transferred to ALL – Accor Live Limitless in around 36 hours at a ratio of 2:1. This is a decent use of Capital One miles for hotels because you can get around 1.1 to 1.2 cents per point in value, compared to the standard 1 cent per point of value.

However, you’ll get better value redeeming your Capital One miles for business or first class flights.

Recommended Capital One Cards

Business owners can also choose from a few Capital One business credit cards.

Citi ThankYou Points Credit Cards

Citi ThankYou Points can be transferred to ALL – Accor Live Limitless at a 2:1 ratio. That means it will take 2 Citi ThankYou Points to make 1 ALL Reward point.

This is an okay, but not great, deal since we value Citi ThankYou Points at 1.6 cents each.
