Our Verdict
This offer seems to be showing on all personal Amex cards but not business cards. This offer is showing on some cards but not others. It’s also now available via Twitter.
These hotel deals usually work so long as the charge is done at the desk of the hotel. Even gift card purchases often work despite terms the contrary. Save the offer now and keep it in mind for future stays.
I stayed at the Hampton inn for 3 nights in April 24 and up till today the credit still has not been applied. Is this normal?
Does anyone know if the $175 includes taxes or not?
It should include tax. So long as $175 is charged on the card it should work.
Spouse and I have Delta, 0 for 2.
Blue cash pref – yes
Everyday – no
I wish this worked for stays in Canada. 🙁
Anyone know if the same deal actually works for gift card purchase?
Is there any reason to assume this needs to be on a single stay, or could it be spread out over several?
To me it sounds more like a single stay, but not really sure.
Was added in 4/5 cards. Only the Hilton card did not have it.
Data point:
Blue Cash Preferred – yes
Old Blue Cash – yes
Delta – no
Hilton – no
if I added the offer on the main card, will purchase on the AU card trigger the offer?
Personal:
Everyday – yes
SPG – no (Duh! It is a competitor hotel chain)
Hilton – um, no. That makes sense since it already gets lots of points for Hilton spend.
Business – 0/3
Platinum – nope
Delta – nada
SPG – see above
Blue Cash Preferred – Yes
Hilton Surpass – No
Is there any way to switch this offer onto the Surpass?
