I have the spend $300/get $60 offer on my SPG Lux. I planned on using my $300 Lux credit for our already booked Swan stay during Spring Break. Is a Marriott GC good for all/any charges at hotels, including restaurants, resort fees, etc?
Also I booked Swan pre merger, with 5th night free on points. Any idea if there’s a way to adjust the reservation and pay 1 night with GC and the rest on points and still get a free night?
It's a Marriott gift card. It lists the Marriott properties on the back. I'm still wondering if it can be used at an SPG property? If you find out anything will you please post?
Judique has a good point about the properties that don't allow use of a Marriott (or RC) gift card. Specifics can be found here. The Swan is a strange case since it was an SPG property before and it looks like all the other pre 8/18 SPG properties are excluded, but the Swan and Dolphin don't fit into any of the brands mentioned on the FAQ. Probably need to call the Swan and ask if they accept the Marriott gift card.
@CyndiLouWho I think you need to have 4 award nights to get the 5th night free. Can you add on another (6th) night to be paid for with the gift card?
Okay. I checked my AU's account and sent her off to buy me lunch and a $300 Disney gift card at Best Buy.
But, I also found another $300/$60 Marriott offer on her AU's card account. I added it and may try another gift card. But, this time I read through the whole thing and it says room charges only and gift cards excluded. Was that always there? Anyone remember? I did the offer on my Lux. This offer is on the SPG personal or as they describe it - the consumer card.
I know it was also on my SPG personal account, but disappeared when I used it on the Lux.
The offer on my Lux says ‘excludes gift cards’
I used the 60 off 300 Marriott offer on my Amex Biz Plat 3 days ago, just buying a Marrriott gift card (no stay) and received the $60 credit. My offer also says 'excludes gift cards' but it still worked anyway.
