The Edit $250 and the 2026 select-hotel $250 both apply to one prepaid Chase Travel stay of two nights or more. The select-hotel credit ends December 31, 2026. It goes by the booking date, so book by then and the stay itself can be later. Check the terms in your account.

Check the rate first

Chase Travel often charges more than the hotel’s own site, so compare before you book. If you find it cheaper within 24 hours of booking, ask Chase for a price match: it has to beat their price by more than $5 a night, for the same room and refund terms.

Two nights that went wrong from the start

u/Visible-Pay-7988 on r/ChaseSapphire, April 2026

  • Breakfast
  • $100 credit
  • $250 credit posted

Their take: A big disappointment: friendly staff could not make up for a dirty, poorly maintained room and bad food, and they wish they had used their credits elsewhere.

Details
Booked
Booked through the portal to use both the Edit credit and the IHG credit; a basic high-floor room, on the 14th of 15 floors.
Check-in
A friendly agent, who warned that breakfast might be too crowded to get a seat.
Room
The first room was dirty, with stains, hair and thick dust. After a call to Chase, a manager moved them; the second room had leftover food in the fridge, an empty conditioner bottle, a sticking sliding bathroom door and air conditioning that failed on the second night and was never fixed.
Welcome
A chocolate dessert on a tray crusted with old food.
$100 credit
Used for dinner at the hotel, which they found bland and overpriced.
Breakfast
Watery eggs, soggy turkey bacon and dry corned beef hash.

Clean, well appointed and good value

u/Altruistic_Gas_7030 on r/ChaseSapphire, April 2026

  • Breakfast

Their take: A great value for where it sits on the price scale, though not something they would pay full price for.

Details
Room
A decent size for New York, very clean and well appointed.
Breakfast
Service was a little slow, but very reasonable as an included benefit.

Clean and comfortable, with tempered expectations

u/bombasticfox on r/ChaseSapphire, April 2026

  • Breakfast
  • $100 credit
  • $250 credit posted

Their take: Happy with what they got for the price after credits, and planning to return; the building shows its age and service can be slow.

Details
Paid
Used $500 in Edit and IHG credits.
Welcome
An assortment of fruit and water.
$100 credit
Spent on cocktails and appetizers; the burrata salad was a standout.
Breakfast
Free; some items were meh, while the lox, tiny tater tots and yogurt parfait were addictive.
Room
Clean, with a comfortable bed and striking architecture, but they could hear the neighbors through the walls.

A fine hotel and a good value

u/StrategyThink4687 on r/ChaseSapphire, April 2026

  • Breakfast

Their take: Not top-tier luxury, but a good value in a fantastic location.

Details
Breakfast
Brunch was fair and free; crowded, but the line moved quickly.
Room
A standard room of a very nice size for New York.

A Broadway weekend mostly paid for by credits

u/TheKobayashiMoron on r/ChaseSapphire, July 2026

  • Breakfast
  • $100 credit
  • $250 credit posted

Their take: The stay was great: the hotel knew exactly how the Chase benefits work, breakfast was included and the property credit covered most of a dinner, even though the rate had risen by the time they rebooked.

Details
Paid
Two nights first booked at $801.08, almost all of it offset by three credits ($250 Edit, $250 IHG and the $300 annual travel credit); a family emergency forced a refunded cancellation, and by the time they rebooked for mid-March the rate had climbed to $1,024
Before arrival
The credits posted a couple of days after booking, once the charge did, and the reservation appeared in the IHG app
Check-in
Staff were well versed in the Chase program and every credit and benefit came through
Breakfast
Included, at $50 per person a day, which they reckon saved them $200
$100 credit
Put toward a dinner of around $150 one night

Last weekend of March, a solid stay

u/ThatDudeChase23 on r/ChaseSapphire, April 2026

  • $100 credit

Their take: A pretty solid stay in a great spot near 5th Ave and 47th; they would stay again.

Details
Breakfast
Told at check-in that breakfast gets busy after 9am; the longest wait was about 35 minutes.
$100 credit
Used on in-room dining; the tip and delivery fee are added on top.
Room
The air conditioning was not working on arrival but was fixed within about 15 minutes; the sliding bathroom door is heavy but worked fine.

Booking tips from cardholders

  • This cardholder booked two nights in late May through Chase and found the price only a few dollars above booking direct. The $250 hotel credit plus about 20k points covered the rest, so nothing came out of pocket.

    u/ABencks on r/ChaseSapphire, May 2026 · Read the thread ↗

  • They split 4 consecutive nights into two reservations: the first paid with $500 plus points to trigger both the Edit credit and the hotel credit, and the second with $250 plus points for the second Edit credit. Points went at 1.65x, and the credits showed up the next day.

    u/tero194 on r/ChaseSapphire, April 2026 · Read the thread ↗

  • Checking a random week in July and in September, they saw a rate of $2,500 for a 4 night stay here, which still looked expensive to them even after counting $750 in card credits.
