ConocoPhillips has operations and partner meetings across the West Coast, and San Francisco is one of those cities where hotel rates can eat through your per diem fast. The InterContinental sits in SoMa, which puts you close to the Moscone Center and the Financial District without the congestion of Union Square. Code 262552 knocks the rate down real enough that you might actually stay under your company's nightly cap here.
The Property
The InterContinental San Francisco is a 550-room tower at 888 Howard Street, right in the heart of the SoMa district between the Moscone Convention Center and Yerba Buena Gardens. The neighborhood is a mix of tech offices, galleries, and restaurants, with Market Street and the Financial District about a 10-minute walk north. SFO is roughly 17 minutes by car without traffic, though BART from the Powell Street station is a cheaper and often faster option.
Rooms at this InterContinental start around 375 square feet for a standard king, which is generous by San Francisco standards. Expect a proper work desk with good lighting, an ergonomic chair, and reliable Wi-Fi that comes complimentary for IHG One Rewards members. Club InterContinental rooms on the upper floors add lounge access with complimentary breakfast and evening appetizers, which can be worth the upgrade if your corporate rate applies to that category.
The hotel has a heated indoor lap pool and a well-equipped fitness center on the spa level, both open early enough for pre-meeting workouts. Luce Restaurant on the ground floor serves Italian-influenced California cuisine and is a solid choice for client dinners without leaving the building. There is no airport shuttle, but the concierge can arrange car service, and the BART station is a short walk away.
Moscone Center is literally across the street, which makes this hotel the default for anyone attending Salesforce events, RSA Conference, or GDC. The Financial District and Embarcadero are about a 15-minute walk or a quick rideshare. For dinner off-property, Benu and In Situ are within a few blocks, and the Ferry Building Marketplace is about a mile east for a morning coffee run.

A standard king at the InterContinental San Francisco often lists around $350 per night, but entering code 262552 at booking drops that to roughly $298. You will earn about 2,980 IHG One Rewards points on that stay, worth approximately $14.90 in future redemptions, which brings your effective net cost down to $283.10 and your total savings to about $66.90 per night. Over a three-night trip, that is roughly $200 back in your pocket between the rate cut and the points.

Stack Your Savings
If you have IHG One Rewards Platinum or Diamond status, the corporate code and your elite benefits apply simultaneously. That means you still get your room upgrade when available, late checkout, welcome amenity, and the bonus points multiplier on top of the discounted rate. Diamond members earn 100% bonus points, so that $298 night would actually yield closer to 5,960 points instead of 2,980.
The IHG One Rewards Premier Credit Card from Chase earns 10x bonus points per dollar on IHG stays, which stacks with your base earning. On a $298 night, that is 2,980 base points plus 2,980 card bonus points, totaling 5,960 points before any elite multiplier. The card also gives you automatic Platinum Elite status and a fourth reward night free on award stays of four or more nights.
IHG regularly runs Accelerate promotions and seasonal point bonuses, usually every quarter, that reward you for completing a certain number of stays or nights. Register for these before your trip on the IHG app under the Offers section. Booking midweek and avoiding major convention dates in San Francisco (especially Dreamforce in September) will also help ensure the corporate rate is available and competitive.
Bottom Line: Depending on the season and room type, ConocoPhillips employees can expect to save between $42 and $105 per night at the InterContinental San Francisco using code 262552, once you account for the rate discount and IHG One Rewards point earnings. The hotel's location next to Moscone, its solid 4.4 rating across nearly 4,700 reviews, and the ability to stack elite benefits make it one of the strongest business hotel picks in the city. If San Francisco is a regular stop for you, the points alone from a few stays here can cover a free night down the road.
