Yes, it's discrimination per the definition of the word:

treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit

However, they should be at full liberty to do this, and it's not wrong any more than e.g. certain passport holders having to apply for a visa, or restaurants which have a dress code.
