Bagging a brilliant hotel deal is one of travel’s quiet joys. It is the moment the rate refreshes, you hit Book Now, and a future memory clicks into place at a price that feels almost cheeky. But cost alone is only half the equation. The most rewarding hotel deal folds convenience, perks and little luxuries into the headline rate, stretching value long past check‑out. That holistic approach sits at the heart of ALL Accor+ Explorer – a membership designed to let you experience more for less, even when you’re travelling close to home.

Think of ALL Accor+ Explorer as your multi‑tool for better trips: one part preferential rates, one part status fast‑track, a dash of dining magic and a generous sprinkle of Reward points. With a single annual fee you essentially preload your travel budget with savings, meaning each subsequent booking feels like dipping into an already‑funded holiday jar.

Below, we unpack the seven ways the programme transforms an ordinary discount into the hotel deal worth talking about – then booking again and again.

1. Redefine what “deal” really means

A rock‑bottom price on an aggregator may look tempting, yet it rarely arrives with flexibility or loyalty rewards. With ALL Accor+ Explorer you receive 15 % off rooms across 4,500 + hotels worldwide while still earning Reward points in ALL Accor. Add instant ALL Gold status – complete with welcome drinks, priority check‑in, late check‑out* and potential upgrades – and that “cheap” web‑only rate suddenly seems rather ordinary.

2. Double up on free nights

Few phrases thrill a traveller more than free night. ALL Accor+ Explorer gives you two Buy‑One‑Get‑One‑Free stays each year, effectively handing you two complimentary nights simply for booking direct. Use them to linger an extra evening on Bondi Beach or turn a two‑night business dash to Bangkok into a long weekend. Set a diary alert every six months so those vouchers never slip through the cracks.

3. Savour the savings between meals

Dining can quietly overtake accommodation in a holiday budget. ALL Accor+ Explorer reins that in with 30 % off meals and 15 % off drinks for you and up to nine guests at 1,600 + hotel restaurants around Asia‑Pacific. Think laksa lunches in Singapore, rooftop tapas in Manila or an indulgent degustation in Melbourne, all minus a third of the bill. Suddenly that tasting menu you’ve been eyeing feels perfectly reasonable.

4. Time your trip like a local

Mid‑week arrivals, shoulder‑season escapes and public‑holiday bookends remain timeless ways to unearth a sharper hotel deal – and Red Hot Rooms accelerate the process. These Flash Offers reach up to 50 % off, saving even more from your Member‑exclusive rate. Switch on notifications in the ALL app; availability can vanish in minutes.

5. Let status remove the small print

Many online bargains come wrapped in caveats. Explorer’s 30 Status Nights credit on day one vaults you straight to Gold, unlocking perks most “deal” shoppers never see: premium Wi‑Fi, room‑allocation priority and a warmer welcome at reception. Saving time, queues and stress is a form of value comparison engine can quantify.

6. Bundle experiences, not just beds

Modern travellers chase stories over souvenirs. Member‑only packages curated by ALL Accor+ Explorer weave rooms together with unforgettable moments: perhaps a guided street‑food safari before a night at MGallery Saigon. The best hotel deal is the one you reminisce about long after the suitcase is back in the loft.

7. Stack your rewards

Your ALL Accor+ Explorer benefits layer neatly over ALL Accor Reward points. Picture a three‑night stay at Pullman Phuket Panwa Beach Resort. You pay for two nights thanks to your Buy-one-get-one-free voucher; meanwhile, the paid portion still earns Reward points, dining discounts trim the bar bill, and late check‑out buys a final lazy swim. Redeem those points later for another getaway and the virtuous cycle begins anew. Value today, value tomorrow.
