The Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express is one of the Nerds' favorite hotel cards. It offers up to 5 Starpoints per dollar on purchases at participating SPG hotels, 2 Starpoints per dollar at Marriott Rewards properties, and 1 Starpoint per dollar on all other purchases.
You'll also get a signup bonus: Earn 25,000 Starpoints® after you use your new Card to make $3,000 in purchases within the first 3 months. Terms Apply. (This offer is no longer available on our site) But what really sets the Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express apart is its high value per point. The annual fee is $0 for the first year, then $95.
