What is Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts (FHR)?

Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts is an exclusive hotel program for American Express Platinum and Centurion cardholders. When you book a participating property through Amex Travel, you receive guaranteed perks at no extra cost: room upgrade on arrival, complimentary breakfast for two, a $100 on-property experience credit, noon check-in, and 4pm late checkout.

How does the $300 Amex Platinum hotel credit work with FHR?

Amex Platinum cardholders receive a $300 annual credit on prepaid hotel bookings through Amex Travel. FHR bookings are made through Amex Travel, so the $300 credit applies directly. Combined with the $100 F&B experience credit included in every FHR stay, your total savings on the first night alone can reach $400 or more.

Can I combine an award flight with an FHR hotel stay?

Yes. Award flights and FHR hotel bookings are completely independent. Book your award flight through your airline loyalty program, then book the FHR hotel separately through Amex Travel. You get the free flight via points and all FHR benefits on the hotel — including breakfast, room upgrade, and the $100 on-property credit.

How many hotels are in the FHR program?

The Amex FHR program covers over 1,000 properties globally. Fluxora tracks 133 curated FHR properties across 19 cities, with real nightly rates, category breakdowns, and effective prices after applying Amex credits.

Do I need an Amex Platinum card to access FHR benefits?

Yes. FHR benefits are exclusive to American Express Platinum and Centurion cardholders. You must book through Amex Travel using your eligible card — booking directly with the hotel will not include FHR perks.

What is the $100 experience credit at FHR hotels?

Every FHR stay includes a $100 experience credit usable at the property toward dining, spa, or other on-site services. The credit is applied automatically to your folio during checkout. Some properties offer a higher credit — up to $150 — in place of the standard $100.
