Up to $300 Annual Hotel Benefit

$300/yr

This perk gives up to $300 off one or more prepaid hotel bookings of at least two nights through the Citi travel portal. You must pay with your card, points, or a combination to trigger the discount. Any unused portion applies to later eligible bookings in the same year but cannot roll into the next. Canceled stays restore the credit, yet it must still be used before year end. The discount applies only at booking, not at checkout.

Pro Tips

  1. 1Use the credit on mid or high cost stays where a $300 discount makes a meaningful dent in the bill.
  2. 2If a booking costs less than $300, the unused balance remains available for another stay that year.
  3. 3Canceled bookings return the credit, though it keeps its original year end expiration.
  4. 4If you also hold the Citi Prestige Card, note that this hotel credit cannot be combined with the Prestige fourth night free benefit.
