Conclusion
I was just in Sri Lanka, where most of these Cinnamon properties are located, but I have never stayed at one.
GHA now has more than 40 participating hotel brands under this umbrella, which allows GHA Discovery members to earn and redeem their D$ and enjoy some elite benefits.
Terms and Conditions of this promotion:
The Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts DISCOVERY Dollar (D$) Promotion (the “Promotion”) applies to qualified stays at The Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts by GHA DISCOVERY members. The Promotion allows members to earn the same number of Base DISCOVERY Dollars (“Base D$”) on completed eligible stays in addition to the Base DISCOVERY Dollars earned on that completed stay.

Participation conditions
To participate in the offer, members must complete a qualified eligible booking within the promotional period (06 January 2025 – 06 February 2025) and complete the eligible stay related to that booking within the required stay period (06 January 2025 – 30 September 2025). The eligible stay must be completed and the member must be checked out on or before 30 September 2025 for the Promotional D$ to be awarded. Ongoing stays with a checkout date after 30 September 2025 will not receive Promotional D$.
Bookings made prior to 06 January 2025, will also not be considered towards the promotion.
Bookings must be made through the following channels: cinnamonhotels.com, ghadiscovery.com, GHA DISCOVERY app or directly with the hotel.
“Net Eligible Spend” for the purposes of this Promotion is the revenue shown on the member’s check out folio on an Eligible Stay (excluding taxes and service charges) on which the member is eligible for earning Base DISCOVERY Dollars. Net Eligible Spend excludes any amount on the folio that is paid for using DISCOVERY Dollars and may also exclude spending at hotel outlets such as restaurants or spas where these are excluded from earning Base DISCOVERY Dollars.
Each booking and stay within the promotion period is evaluated individually, and eligible spend is NOT combined cumulatively across stays for rewards.
“Ineligible rates” do not qualify for earning Promotional D$. “Ineligible Rates” shall include, without limitation: (1) third-party online retailer rates, such as Expedia.com, Booking.com, Hotels.com, Orbitz.com, Priceline, Travelocity.com, etc. (“OTAs”) (2) tours series rates and charter rates (3) room rates for airline staff and crew where rooms are pre-booked and paid for by the airline or directly; (4) travel-industry staff rates; (5) other discounted rates; (6) any complimentary, free, traded or bartered night stays, or any stays in connection with gift certificates or other awards or vouchers. First stays on ineligible rates may receive DISCOVERY Dollars on a promotional basis, but these stays will not count towards tier qualification; subsequent stays on an ineligible rate will not receive D$ nor will they count towards tier qualification.
Promotional D$ are awarded in addition to the Base D$ that are issued as a result of completing the eligible stay. Promotional D$ are subject to a limited expiry term of Six (6) months from the date of issuance and are therefore excluded from the Base D$ expiration rules. Any Base D$ earned on a member’s stay will be subject to expiration based on standard tier-based expiration rules. This offer is subject to availability and blackout dates may apply. Promotional D$ or Promotional Tier Night credits can be earned on a maximum of two rooms per night.
This offer is subject to change or withdrawal without notice, cannot be transferred or exchanged for other forms of compensation, cannot be combined with any other offer or promotion unless explicitly stated and is subject to availability. D$ are not redeemable for cash.
