We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    The Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts (FHR) is a benefit available with cards like The Platinum Card® from American Express and The Business Platinum® Card from American Express. When you book through FHR you’ll get perks similar to elite status benefits, like:

    These benefits apply to 1,000+ hotels worldwide, and right now there is a targeted Amex Offer where you can earn a 16,000 Amex Membership Rewards points bonus when you make a single purchase of $800+ on a prepaid hotel booked through the Amex travel site by September 30, 2019. This is in addition to the 5X Amex Membership Rewards points you’ll earn for booking a prepaid hotel through the Amex travel site with your Amex Platinum or Business Platinum card.

    If you’re eligible, you’ll have to log in to your Amex account to add the offer to your card. If you’re not sure how to do that, check out our step-by-step guide on Amex Offers for detailed instructions.

    Some of the FHR properties are also part of major hotels chains including Waldorf Astoria (Hilton), Ritz Carlton (Marriott) and Park Hyatt hotels. When you book through the FHR website you’ll still earn hotel points and be able to take advantage of your elite status perks. But that isn’t the case if you book through the Amex travel site, which is what the offer specifically says you need to do in order to qualify.
