Back in October we booked the Intercontinental Hotel using priority points for 2 nights, Oct. 11 and 12th. It was 30,000 points per night but they have other combinations using points plus cash.
I always do this kind of thing early, knowing we can cancel with no penalty if the "group" opts for a different hotel. This hotel does seem to be in an excellent location and recently had full renovation. This is info:
