AmEx and Chase both offer the perk to cardholders
, and Centurion cardholders have access to"FHR." Benefits of booking through FHR include a room upgrade when available, daily breakfast for two, guaranteed 4 p.m. late check-out, early 12 p.m. check-in when available, free wifi, and a property amenity credit, which is usually a general hotel, spa, or food and beverage credit worth a minimum of $100.On a recent visit to Vegas, I had my usual comped rooms for two nights, with the final night of my trip, a weekday, unplanned and unbooked.
Much to my excitement, I found a room rate through FHR of only $79. After including taxes and the resort fee, for which Vegas is infamous, my total for the night was just shy of $140. Staying at a resort as nice as Delano for less than $150 is a great deal outright, but when the benefits granted by FHR are included, it becomes a steal.
It's difficult to apply a dollar value to early check-in and late check-out. However, I knew I would get the full value out of both the breakfast credits and food and beverage allowance. In this instance, the breakfast came in the form of two $30 credits to Delano's upscale cafe, Della's Kitchen. The credits could also have been used via room service.
It's important to note that the property amenity credit category can change periodically. People value these categories differently, so be sure to note this before booking a stay. One way to potentially navigate around a suboptimal amenity credit is to check a comparable program: Chase's Luxury Hotel and Resorts Collection.Chase's Luxury Hotel and Resort Collection
Like American Express' FHR, Chase's LHRC is a network of partner hotels that, when booked through the program, offer special privileges during the stay. Chase's Luxury Hotel and Resort Collection can also only be accessed by select Chase cardholders. According to
