There are exciting new targeted Amex Offers on US-issued American Express cards that can reduce the cost of stays at Marriott hotels across North America, including in Canada.
For those of us who dabble in US credit cards and have an offer available, this is an easy opportunity to secure a meaningful discount on a Marriott hotel stay through to November 23, 2024.
Marriott Amex US Offer: Spend $375, Get $100 at North American Hotels (Targeted)
There are great new targeted Marriott Amex US Offers available on a range of American Express US products.
On personal cards, you can earn a $100 (all figures in USD) statement credit upon spending at least $375 at Marriott properties in North America (Canada, the United States, Mexico, and the Caribbean) before November 23, 2024.
If you have the offer available on your account, be sure to register first, and then you’ll be eligible for up to 27% off a Marriott stay this fall.
This time, there’s a handful of brands that are excluded from the offer, including: Design Hotels, Homes & Villas by Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott Executive Apartments, Marriott Grand Residence Club, Marriott Vacation Club, Protea Hotels, Vistana Residence Network, and Vistana Signature Network.
With Amex US, if you have more than one card to your name, you’ll probably end up receiving an Amex Offer across multiple accounts at first.
However, once you add an offer to one of your accounts, it’s typically no longer eligible to be added to other accounts. That means you should be careful about which card you add the offer to.
Ideally, you’ll be able to register your Amex US Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant Card, Amex US Marriott Bonvoy Bevy Card, or Amex US Marriott Bonvoy Business Card, as these cards earn the highest possible return of 6x Marriott Bonvoy points at Marriott hotels. It’s worth noting that all cards have excellent welcome bonuses available.
Because the credit is applied on the Amex side, the discount will kick in based on the final amount charged by the hotel. That means you can combine it with, say, the ongoing Edmonton’s Best Hotels promotion and still trigger the credit.
Remember that the offer’s expiry date refers to the transaction date of your hotel stay, so any hotel stay that ends on or before November 23, 2024, should work.
Enhance Your Stay with Marriott STARS and Luminous
If you don’t have Marriott Bonvoy elite status, or even if you do but you wish to further elevate your stay, booking a luxury hotel stay with Prince Collection through the Marriott STARS or Luminous preferred partner programs gives you additional benefits for no extra cost.
Luxury hotels, such as the St. Regis Toronto, The Ritz-Carlton Toronto, and The Ritz-Carlton Montreal can be booked via Marriott STARS.
Book a hotel stay with Prince of Travel through Marriott STARS and enjoy exclusive additional benefits at no cost to you, including:
- Daily breakfast for two guests
- Room upgrade, subject to availability at check-in
- $100 (USD) property credit
- In-person welcome and personalized welcome amenity and note
- Third, Fourth, or Fifth Night Free at select properties
Meanwhile, a wider range of properties, including the W Toronto and the W Montreal, can be booked via Marriott Luminous.
Book a hotel stay with Prince of Travel through Marriott Luminous and enjoy exclusive additional benefits at no cost to you, including:
- Daily breakfast for two guests
- Room upgrade, subject to availability at check-in
- Early check-in and late check-out, subject to availability
- Welcome amenity
- $100 (USD) property credit at select properties
- Third, Fourth, or Fifth Night Free at select properties
The Marriott STARS or Luminous rates are the same as the best available flexible rates, which can be higher than prepaid rates, member rates, corporate rates, etc., that you may have access to.
In this case, you’ll want to weigh up the savings on those rates and how much you value the benefits of booking through STARS or Luminous. Either way, you can take advantage of the current Amex Offer in the US to get up to a 27% discount on your stay.
Conclusion
American Express US has rolled out a new targeted Amex Offer for up to 27% off at Marriott hotels in Canada, the US, Mexico, and the Caribbean.
Many Amex US cardholders should see an offer in their accounts, as long as you’ve held your card for a few weeks and have started seeing Amex Offers roll in.
Be careful about which card you choose to register the card on. Ideally, you’d add it to one of your Marriott co-branded cards to earn the most Bonvoy points and stack with any annual credits on the card.
Don’t forget to register for this Amex Offer on your dashboard, and then start planning your Marriott hotel stays before the offer expires on November 23, 2024.
Looking at my Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant Card right now and I don’t see these offers.
Interesting how I never get any of these amazing offers on any of my 4 bonvoy cards. Curious if anyone knows how AMEX targets who gets these and who doesn’t?
Do you have much spending on your amex account in the USA? In Canada, I’ve tended to get the bonvoy offers on premium cards like the aeroplan reserve.
In the US I tend to get bonvoy offers on bonvoy and hilton on hilton. I have *some* spending on each card, and use other offers such as on Rover. I also have regular spending on a US business card.
One trick for the US amex offers. There is a max of 100 offers on a US amex card. So sometimes you don’t see the good bonvoy offer even if you have it. To solve this, add a few random offers to your card, then reload. (Make sure you go back to the right card, as reloading tends to refresh). You will find new offers, including the premium offer if you had it.
I have used a similar offer in the past to get a Marriott gift card at a local hotel, but the T&C this time indicate that room reservations must be made directly with Marriott or through the app. “Reservations must be made online at Marriott.com, via the Marriott Bonvoy® App or by calling 1-888-236-2427.” That’s too bad, but it is still a good deal if you have a paid stay in mind.
