Save At Leading Hotels Of The World With Amex Offers (Targeted)

The Amex Offers program frequently has promotions for hotel stays, which can save you money or earn you bonus points for stays you’d make anyway. Amex has just rolled out its latest targeted hotel offer, which could be worth it for a stay at a boutique luxury property.

Spend $700+ with LHW, earn 15K points

There’s a targeted Amex Offers deal for stays at Leading Hotels of the World (LHW) properties:

• Earn 15,000 Amex Membership Rewards points when you spend $700+ across one or more transactions
• This is valid when you pay for your stay between September 9 and December 8, 2024
• This is valid for stays at participating properties in the United States and abroad, and you can find the full list of eligible properties here
• The terms state that you need to book directly at lhw.com or by calling 1-800-745-8883 to qualify for the offer
• All room charges, including taxes and fees, should qualify toward this offer
• Registration is required

As you can see, the terms state that you need to book through lhw.com or by phone to qualify for the offer. Since LHW is a collection of independent hotels, I wouldn’t be surprised if booking direct with the hotel (or even through Virtuoso) would qualify for the offer as well, since either way you’ll generally be settling payment directly with the hotel.

This offer is going to be most common on cards earning Amex Membership Rewards points. Personally I value those points at 1.7 cents each, so to me, those points are worth $255. It’s also possible that there’s a version of the offer for $150 cash back rather than 15,000 bonus points, though I’d consider the latter to represent a better value.

What is Leading Hotels of the World?

Leading Hotels of the World is a collection of independent luxury hotels, with nearly 400 properties around the globe. Chances are that you’re familiar with some of LHW’s properties, even if you didn’t know they were associated with the group.

You should think of Leading Hotels of the World as more of a hotel marketing group than as a single hotel group. LHW doesn’t manage its hotels, but rather markets a group of otherwise independent luxury hotels. As a matter of fact, many properties of smaller hotel groups (like Airelles, Rocco Forte, etc.) belong to LHW.

Think of Leading Hotels of the World as being along the lines of Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH), which Hilton has a partnership with. For example, I’ve reviewed both the Ritz Paris and Les Airelles Courchevel, and both belong to LHW.

Also keep in mind that Leading Hotels of the World has its own Leader’s Club loyalty program.

Bottom line

There’s a new targeted Amex Offers deal that can earn you 15,000 Amex bonus points when you spend $700+ at select LHW properties in the coming months. This is potentially a good offer for those into luxury hotels.

Do you see this Amex Offers deal on one of your accounts, and if so, do you plan on taking advantage of it?
