Elite hotel benefits \u2014 ranging from welcome amenities, bonus points, early check-in and late checkout, free breakfast, to the occasional free room upgrade \u2014 really do improve the hotel experience and make one feel rewarded.<\/p>\n<p>But, if you don\u2019t travel regularly, it can be difficult to collect enough nights within one hotel program to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/best-mid-tier-hotel-elite-status\/\" rel=\"noopener\">reach elite status<\/a>, let alone across multiple programs. There's also the issue that <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/use-points-at-hotels-with-no-rewards-program\/\" rel=\"noopener\">chain hotels have a limited footprint<\/a> in some areas of the world. That restricts the number of destinations where you can earn and enjoy your elite status. It might also be a reason to push you into another chain where you have no status if the chain you're loyal to has no presence.<\/p>\n<p>But what if you could enjoy all of the best things about being an elite without actually having to put in the leg work?

In an attempt to replicate it, many have launched luxury hotel programs. Entities like American Express, Capital One, Chase, Bilt, Citi, and also Visa and Mastercard have started offering elite-like perks through proprietary programs to some of their most exclusive cardholders.<\/p>\n<p>Many times, these programs are offered to cardholders of high-annual-fee, ultra-luxury travel credit cards. Cardholders gain access to luxury hotels all over the globe and receive complimentary elite benefits similar to what you\u2019d receive as a top-tier elite member within these hotels' own loyalty programs. To enjoy these perks, all you need to do is book your hotel reservations through the issuer's travel portal.<\/p>\n<p>Many of these programs have been around for years, while others have launched very recently. They are all somewhat similar with a few key differences, but they are all worth a look.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Perks_of_luxury_hotel_programs\">Perks of luxury hotel programs<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Each luxury hotel program offers perks for booking accommodations through its travel portal. Common perks include space-available upgrades at the time of check-in, complimentary breakfast, an on-property credit to use during your stay, or free Wi-Fi, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>Below is an overview of luxury hotel programs accessed through credit card membership:<\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-511\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-511 tablepress-responsive\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1 odd\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\">Hotel Program Name<\/th><th class=\"column-2\">Guaranteed Benefits<\/th><th class=\"column-3\">Additional Benefits<\/th><th class=\"column-4\">What Can On-Property Credit Be Used For?<\/th><th class=\"column-5\">How to Book<\/th><th class=\"column-6\">Can You Book With Points?<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2 even\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\"><b>American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts<\/b><\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Daily breakfast for two people<br \/>\n<br \/>\nGuaranteed 4 p.m. late checkout<br \/>\n<br \/>\nComplimentary Wi-Fi<br \/>\n<br \/>\n$100 Experience Credit to be used at the hotel<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">5x points per dollar spent on eligible prepaid FHR stays<br \/>\n<br \/>\nRoom upgrade at check-in, subject to availability<br \/>\n<br \/>\nNoon check-in, when available<br \/>\n<br \/>\nUp to $600 annual prepaid hotel credit (up to $300 semi-annually) when paying with the <a data-ccid=\"4028089\" href=\"\/blog\/link\/CR-ThePlatinumCardfromAmericanExpress\" rel=\"noopener nofollow sponsored\">American Express Platinum Card<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a> (The Hotel Collection requires a minimum two night stay)<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Experience credit varies by property.

Make sure to do a quick comparison if you have multiple cards that offer you these benefits to see which one works best for you.<\/p>\n<p>There is significant overlap between collections, particularly in larger, less off-the-beaten-path destinations. You may find that you hold multiple cards that offer these additional perks just for booking through their travel portal.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, it may be worth checking the price to book directly with the hotel. If booking via one of these portals is more expensive, consider whether the price difference is worth it for the added perks. Would an extra $10 per night for daily breakfast for two make sense? Most likely. Would paying $80 more for these elite hotel benefits be worth it? Unlikely.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Final_Thoughts\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Elite benefits like complimentary breakfast and late checkout can significantly uplift your hotel stays. Getting those perks as a credit card benefit \u2014 rather than through hotel status earned either the old-fashioned way or <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/credit-cards\/hotels\/best-hotel-card-elite-status\/\" rel=\"noopener\">through a credit card<\/a> \u2014 adds another layer of value to cards like the <a data-ccid=\"4048084\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/credit-cards\/chase-ultimate-rewards\/sapphire-reserve\/\">Sapphire Reserve<\/a> and the <a data-ccid=\"4028089\" href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/credit-cards\/amex-membership-rewards\/amex-platinum\/\">Platinum Card<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As for the best program? That's a tough question to answer \u2014 the best program will be the one you have. Assuming room rates were similar (any significant difference and it\u2019s a no-brainer to choose the least expensive), we give an edge here to Amex Fine Hotels + Resorts for the guaranteed 4 p.m. late check-out, something none of the other programs offer as standard.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you want to enjoy additional perks while still earning hotel points and status with the program, consider The Edit by Chase. While there's no guarantee that hotels booked through these other programs will honor your elite status benefits or give you stay credit with your favorite loyalty program, it never hurts to ask if you can add your rewards number to the booking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you want the benefits of elite status within a hotel program but don&#8217;t happen to have that status, leveraging luxury hotel programs could deliver just what you&#8217;re looking for.
