The Edit by Chase Travel℠ is a new credit card benefit of the card_name and card_name.  The Edit is a collection of over 1,000 hotels and resorts worldwide. Both cards come with an total annual credit of $500 for stays of at least two consecutive nights at The Edit properties.

How you use the $500 credit is a little tricky—you can’t just book one hotel stay and make use of the entire $500 in one go. The $500 credit has to be split into two different transactions. In 2025, the two $250 credits were semi-annual, meaning you could book one stay between January through June to receive that semi-annual $250 credit, and then you could book the other from July through December to receive the other $250 credit. But starting January 1, 2026, you can use both $250 credits any time you want instead of semi-annually, as long as both $250 credits are credited to two separate transactions. 

It appears that these credits are very similar to the Fine Hotels + Resorts® credits, and I have found those to be simple to use, so I feel confident that these credits will be beneficial to me. The one disappointing difference is that Fine Hotels + Resorts® allows people to stay one night and earn the credit, whereas The Edit requires a two-night stay. 

 

The Edit Perks

Unlike booking direct or through Chase Travel℠ alone, The Edit adds a layer of premium perks to your stay. Every booking comes with benefits like:

• Daily breakfast for two

• A $100 property credit (often for dining or spa services)

• Room upgrades when available

• Early check-in and late check-out (subject to availability)

• Complimentary Wi-Fi

• Welcome amenity

Note: The exact value of these benefits can vary based on usage and availability.

Again, card_name and card_name cardholders receive up to $500 in statement credits each year ($250 to be used for two separate booking transactions) when booking prepaid stays of two nights or more through The Edit. That’s a real offset against the card’s annual fee.

 

How to Book The Edit

• Go to Chase.com or open the Chase Mobile app.

• Log in with your credentials and go to your Chase Sapphire Reserve® or Chase Sapphire Reserve for Business℠ account.

Real-Life Example

Remember, you have to book through Chase Travel℠ and use your Chase Sapphire Reserve® or Chase Sapphire Reserve for Business℠ to pay for the stay. I’m considering a hotel I’d like to stay at for a staycation: the Thompson Denver. Let’s use my Edit credit instead of Hyatt points.

 

Thompson Denver

 

 

Let’s review the value and break it down in more detail. As a Chase Sapphire Reserve® cardholder, booking through The Edit entitles you to the following benefits at this hotel:

The total cash cost is $780, less the $250 Edit credit, which makes it $530 for two nights, or $265 per night. Once you add on breakfast for two for two days (value of at least $100) and the $100 property credit, it comes down to $330 for two nights—a great deal!  All of this is without even considering free wifi and a possible upgrade.

Note that two nights at this hotel on these dates would require a total of 40,000 Hyatt points booked directly with Hyatt, so this is a great alternative to not using your points sometimes and saving them for a different stay. 

 

Here is another Denver hotel I love, from the IHG hotel group:

 

 

The Kimpton would be only $410 after factoring $100 (approximately) for breakfast and the $250 Edit credit. But when you add the $100 property credit, the total comes to just $310, making it a solid deal.

 

Another Way to Book

You can combine the The Edit credit with points to have another booking option. Let’s check out my stay at the Kimpton above. Here’s the cost with just points:

 

 

But I can start lowering the points cost and paying with that $250 Edit credit that will be credited back to me. I love this way of using both methods for a win-win for me!

 

 

This hotel usually runs 37K+ IHG points a night to book so this is a great value. Instead of paying 74K+ points for a two-night stay, you can pay 29,000 with the Edit credit and Points Boost!

 

 

Another Related Benefit in 2026

Chase also recently announced that beginning in 2026, Chase Sapphire Reserve® and Chase Sapphire Reserve for Business℠ cardholders will be able to take advantage of an additional $250 credit for bookings of two nights or more at select hotel properties through Chase Travel℠, including IHG^® Hotels & Resorts, Montage Hotels & Resorts, Pendry Hotels & Resorts, Omni Hotels & Resorts, Virgin Hotels, Minor Hotels, and Pan Pacific Hotels and Resorts. While we don’t know yet whether this $250 credit will be able to be used in conjunction with the The Edit credits on the same stay, it’s another benefit to keep in mind when you’re thinking about how to get the most value out of all your hotel credits.

 

Bottom Line

Rates booking hotels through The Edit can sometimes be higher than booking directly with the hotels themselves, so it’s a good idea to compare prices. But in my examples, the prices were the same or better because of Points Boost. And while perks like upgrades and early check-in are great, they’re not guaranteed.

The Edit by Chase Travel℠ is worth exploring before you book your next hotel. With premium benefits built in, plus up to $500 in annual credits, it transforms ordinary stays into an even better deal—let us know what deals you find out there!
