Amex Launches New Marriott Bonvoy Cashback Deals

If you're planning a hotel stay in the coming months, I've got some excellent news for Amex cardholders. American Express has just launched two valuable cashback offers for Marriott Bonvoy properties that could save you up to £100 on your next stay.

As I was checking my Amex offers this morning, I spotted these two Marriott deals that vary depending on which card you hold. Let me break down what's available and how you can take advantage of them.

The Offers: £75 or £100 Statement Credit

There are two different offers currently showing in the Amex app:

1. £75 statement credit when you spend £200 or more at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels

2. £100 statement credit when you spend £500 or more at participating Marriott Bonvoy hotels

From what I can see, the £75 offer appears on most cards, including the Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card, while the more generous £100 credit is showing up primarily on the American Express Platinum Business Card.

Both offers are valid until 18th June 2025, giving you plenty of time to plan a stay. They're limited to in-store transactions only, which means you'll need to pay for your stay directly at the hotel rather than pre-paying online.

Key Terms to Be Aware Of

As with all Amex offers, there are some important conditions to note:

• These offers are valid once per card

• The offer applies to participating Marriott Bonvoy properties only (more on that below)

• The transaction must be completed by 18th June 2025

• Payment must be made in-store (at the hotel)

• The £100 offer is limited to the first 50,000 cardmembers to save the deal

Which Marriott Properties Participate?

American Express has provided a comprehensive list of participating Marriott Bonvoy properties across Europe. I've reviewed the PDF document, and it includes hundreds of hotels across:

• Austria

• Belgium

• Finland

• France

• Germany

• Ireland

• Italy

• Luxembourg

• Netherlands

• Spain

• Sweden

• Switzerland

• United Kingdom

This means whether you're planning a city break in Paris, a beach holiday in Spain, or a business trip in London, you'll likely find a participating hotel that suits your needs.

Maximising the Offer

For those of you who hold multiple American Express cards, this is a perfect opportunity to stack benefits. Here's how I plan to make the most of this deal:

1. Save the offer to all eligible cards in your wallet

2. If planning a longer stay, consider splitting the payment across multiple cards to trigger each offer

3. Combine with any ongoing Marriott Bonvoy promotions for even greater savings

4. If you have Marriott Bonvoy status (like I do with Titanium status through my Amex Platinum Business), remember this stacks with your usual elite benefits

Is This a Good Deal?

Absolutely! The £75 back on £200 spend represents a 37.5% return, while the £100 back on £500 gives you a 20% discount. Both are excellent values for hotel stays.

For context, I recently used my Marriott Bonvoy American Express Card at a Marriott property in Dubai and earned over 35,000 Bonvoy points from that single trip. Adding a £75 or £100 statement credit would make those stays even more rewarding.

My Recommendation

If you're planning any hotel stays between now and June 2025, I highly recommend saving these offers to your American Express cards immediately. With the £100 offer capped at 50,000 cardmembers, you'll want to secure your spot.

Even if you don't have immediate travel plans, saving the offer costs nothing and gives you the flexibility to use it should an opportunity arise in the next few months.

Have you received these offers on your Amex cards? Do you have a Marriott stay coming up where you can use them? Let me know in the comments!

Note: As always, offers may vary by cardmember. Check your American Express app or account to see which offers are available to you.
