The IHG might be a good fit but, doesn't Chase have a policy of 2 apps, not to mention approvals, within 30 days? I was instantly denied Mariott back in Jan/Feb.
I might be better served using Venture/V1 for hotels
Yes. And IMO IHG and Marriott are both good. I would look for the one with the best sign up bonus.

I am not sure what Chase's stance is on applications for their cards within a particular timeframe. IHG is my third Chase card in 2 months, so I can provide that datapoint at least. I would only make such attempts with pristine scores and reports (no bads) for best results/not having to recon.
As for using the Venture series for this purpose, I'll let others with the cards chime in. I'm not a fan of the Venture cards at all.
I was approved for the CSP and Freedom on 5/19. Then was approved for the United Explorer on 6/6/15. I was originaly told I was denined for more than 2 Chase aprovals in 30 days.. but the card just showed up yestereday.
So I dont know if it was an overlook on Chase part, but I was able to get 3 cards within the 30 days.

Everything with credit is individual. All we can really go by is anecdotal evidence here; none of us work for Chase.
That said, I'm sure the United Explorer being cobranded probably made the difference. Sometimes, cobrands and non-cobrands don't "count" the same way with regards to limits on approvals, etc.
