They ran this promo back in May and I missed the offer. I believe this is the one of the best, if not the best bonus offer for this specific card.

recommend looking places you want to go first, then decide if the card is right for you.
It's hard to get a room at a decent property domestically for 50k. Handful of real options.
wow.. how many points do you guys have to think that 50K night certificates are hard to redeem... Five 50K certificates is hands down better than 100K points... I'm having a hard time figuring out why 100K pts would be better unless you ONLY stay at Ritz Carltons or All Inclusives for 1 night.
A typical free night certificate from most credit cards is only 35K pts/night. 50K/night certificates, and they give you five is pretty amazing...

I used mine at the Swan Reserve for a few nights too! Had to top off a few K points a night but still worth it, especially for Early Entry, Extended Hours, and Free Parking at the parks!
Used the other couple certificates I had at the Royal Hawaiian in Hawaii.
Pretty amazing value for a $95 annual fee card.
How was your experience at the royal Hawaiian? Thinking of spending my free night awards there
I was just telling my GF that if this offer comes back around to get it...I got in on it last time and I keep the card for the free night with the $95 fee each year. I have no problem using the 50k nights or even the free 35k night annually.
How was your experience at the royal Hawaiian? Thinking of spending my free night awards there
It was good. Location is great. I guess it comes down if you like "Character" and "History" in your hotel rooms. Personally, I generally prefer more modern rooms like their sister property right next door, the Sheraton. Both hotels share the same amenities and share the same beachfront and pools. All amenities are close enough to each other that it really doesn't matter.
Generally, Royal Hawaiian is more expensive in cash and points.. and often times over the 65K limit, so it made sense for me to book it since I did want to try it. I knew future trips would generally be easier to book the Sheraton since even a 35K certificate could possibly be doable or just cheaper in general.
I still don't see how it's "limited" for most people. 50K can get you most non-extravagant hotels. You can top off 15K like you said for 65K/night, which is pretty high end. Does it work for every single room.. of course not, but it will work for MOST rooms...
What criteria would you use to make it limited? The only way it would be limited if it wasn't enough points to book a room correct? The only criteria that I can see would be a hotel room above 65K which would absolutely be correct, but for most people, this won't be a problem.
Where did I say the certificates have limited use for "most" people?
I'm not talking about "extravagant" hotels. For example, Residence Inn Ocean City, MD is 74K a night in the summer. The certificates can't be used even with an ability to top off. Will some people have no problem booking a place they're interested in with the certificates? Yes. Will everyone? No. Point is people need to do their homework before assuming they will be able to use the certificates at a particular hotel at a particular time of year.

Most hotel credit cards are terrible because hotels always charge so many points for a free night. 50k seems unlikely. Most room rates are double or triple, MINIMUM!
And then beyond the redemption, they are also terrible for earning, even if you have status on the point earning you still have to go like 20+ times before you earn a free night!
Airlines, which have much smaller margins somehow give flights away so much more frequently through lower priced awards relative to earning. Hotels can't/refuse to figure it out.
Have you ever stayed at a Marriott? Most properties are under 50k points.

You clearly have no idea what the Bonvoy points per night are.
You would be hard pressed to find nights that cost 150K points (supposedly triple the 50K per your comment).
A regular Marriott night in a popular city will cost about 35K points or so at most.
Is this worth getting if the only plan is to do it for the bonus and then cancel the card? I just completed the Chase Sapphire 90k deal, does it hurt your credit to keep doing these?

1. Anyone know when this will offer will expire?
2. Is there an easy way to tell if you are over the Chase 5/24 rule?
