- Targeted offer, must use an enrolled card
Our Verdict
Important to keep in mind this only works for prepaid hotel bookings and not flights and you also need to spend $600 in a single purchase. Would be so much more useful if it included flights as it’s much easier to get discounts on hotels and if you’re booking at the larger chain hotels then you need to book directly to get elite night credits, have your status recognized and earn points. I personally book my hotels normally through Hotels.com and I’m able to get 20%+ off without any issue and up to ~35% with discounted gift cards. This American Express discount is only slightly over 16.5% (more depending on how much you value MR points). Offer is slightly better on Platinum cards as they also earn 5x on amextravel.com purchases. Last time they offered this deal it was spend $500 and get $100 back, so this time around it’s not as good.
