I booked the InterContinental Real San Pedro Sula Hotel using 7,800 American Airlines AAdvantage miles on useaamiles.com. The going rate for this hotel was $200, so I definitely got more than 2cpm out of my American miles. I had called the property beforehand to add my IHG membership number to the 3rd party reservation. I had absolutely no status with IHG and I added my IHG number for free internet during my stay. Part 1 of this review will cover the hotel room portion and Part 2 will cover the Ambassador evening appetizers and Ambassador Club Lounge breakfast.

There was absolutely no way of taking public transportation from San Pedro Sula International Airport to the InterContinental Real San Pedro Sula Hotel, so I had to suck it up for a $20 USD taxi. However, the hotel does provide a shuttle service from the airport to the hotel for a fee of $15.00 + 15% tax per person (more on that later).
During check-in, I asked the agent if there were any suites available (I have no status with IHG) and she offered me a Junior Suite for free. This was the first time I had ever asked for any type of upgrade as a non-status member and I’m glad I did. She also informed me that I had access to the Intercontinental Ambassador Club Lounge and the evening appetizers in the lobby restaurant.
The hotel does have a shuttle service to and from the airport. Service from the airport to the hotel is available “On Request”, meaning you have to call them in advance to send a shuttle to pick you up from the airport. This service is $15.00 + 15% tax per person. From the hotel to the airport, the scheduled times are 5:15am, 8:00am, 9:00am, 11:00am, 12:15pm, 2:30pm, and 6:30pm. This service is $10.00 + 15% tax per person.
I took a peek at the beautiful pool area before heading up to my room.
The Junior Suite was located on the InterContinental Ambassador level and I was still in shock on how she gave me the suite for free as a non-status member (more on that later).
The Junior Suite consisted of a large L-shaped sofa with lots of decorative pillows, a TV, large executive workdesk, and a King size bed.
The bathroom was quite small and contained a single basin sink with a bathtub/shower combo and a luxury bathrobe.
I had views of the MultiPlaza Mall which was adjacent to the hotel and also a beautiful mountain view of San Pedro Sula.
