4 days in San Antonio, Texas on the river walk, intercontinental hotel.

Booking was $1,100

$300 Amex hotel credit
$250 free night
$100 property credit
$240 breakfast credit ($60 per day)
$100 Resy credit

Yes, I had to spend from the “coupon book”. But at the end of the day, this is $990 of real world goods and services, that did NOT come out of my bank account.

It could be argued that I would not spend $60 a day for breakfast, but I am certainly going to eat breakfast somewhere right?

It could also be argued that I don’t need to spend $100 in the hotel bar, but I would anyway.

And this is before any of the perks or benefits or statuses, or free vacations. I cannot tell you how happy I am with the value of this card.
