Get a one-time $20 statement credit by using your enrolled eligible Card to spend a minimum of $100 in one or more purchases online at hotels.com/giftcards by 10/29/2023.

Offer Terms
Enrollment limited. Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid only on physical or digital (eGift) Hotels.com gift cards purchased through US website hotels.com/giftcards. Excludes Gift Registry, Corporate/Bulk gift cards and all other purchases on hotels.com. Only one gift card allowed per booking on Hotels.com. Usual booking terms and conditions apply (see site for details). All bookings are subject to availability. Offer is non-transferable. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. You may not receive the statement credit if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as qualifying for the offer. For example, you may not receive the statement credit if (a) the merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or (b) the merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or (c) you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet. Purchases may fall outside of the offer period in some cases due to a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction (for example, the purchase date for online orders may be the shipping date). Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 10/29/2023, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items/services from your qualifying purchase have been shipped/provided by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your purchase as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account. The enrolled Card account must be active, not past due, canceled, or have a returned payment outstanding to receive the statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Amex Offers are available for varying and limited periods of time and are dynamic and personalized. If you navigate away from the Amex Offers page, you may see different offers when you return. For questions regarding your Card Account, please call the number on the back of your Card. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

I don't recommend anything Hotels.com. I cashed out some points a few years ago for these gift cards and have yet to use them. Prices with taxes and fees are way higher on Hotels.com than other sites.

Not to mention it's a 3rd party booking site. Have an issue with your booking and the hotel will tell you to call Hotels.com.

This isn't true at all. Maybe you were seeing special package rates or something on other third party sites, but for generally offered nightly rates, hotels.com is around the same price as booking directly with the hotel, or a little better, and basically equivalent to Expedia (same company now). They even have a lowest price guarantee, or at least they did.

The bigger problem with hotels.com is that they just devalued their reward night system, with their merger to Expedia's rewards. Previously it was 1/10th of each night back in value. Now it's about 1/50th I think. It used to be nice for business travelers to stay in boutique hotels and still earn reward nights, and not have to stick with one chain.

I completely disagree. I checked Hotels.com vs Agoda on a recent trip to Asia and it was double, sometimes triple the cost for the same room type. My reasoning for not using the gift cards was the major difference in price. Perhaps they have similar rates with other booking companies for some countries in the West, but they were much higher in places like Thailand and Vietnam.
