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 for $70 with remarkable service

u/Professional-Still54 on r/ChaseSapphire, July 2026

  • Breakfast
  • $100 credit
  • Better floor or view
  • Early check-in

Their take: Everything exceeded their expectations, especially the service, and they would happily return; the out-of-the-way location is the only real downside.

Details
Paid
$70 for two nights after the Edit credit, the IHG credit and Points Boost
Check-in
Arrived around noon and checked in early
Upgrade
Called an upgrade, but it was only a higher floor
Welcome
Fruit, which did not arrive until the next day, plus a 60 Yuan voucher for IHG Platinum members
Room
The best hotel mattress they have slept on; a bathroom with a TV built into the mirror, a rain shower and a very large square tub; the toilet is in its own room
Breakfast
Buffet mixing Chinese and Western food, with dishes changing daily; great
$100 credit
Usable at the bar but not on room service; a burger and a drink nearly used it up
Location
Roughly 30 mins by car from the main area, though malls, cafes and restaurants are close by

Two overlapping bookings, two property credits

u/RazzmatazzNovel7341 on r/ChaseSapphire, July 2026

  • $100 credit

Their take: Excellent service but a poor location, and the promised upgrade did not feel real.

Details
Booked
Two separate Edit bookings, one each for them and their partner, covering three nights with the middle night overlapping
$100 credit
Each of them got a $100 property credit because they checked in separately
Welcome
A 60RMB voucher for IHG Platinum members

Two nights in January for 10k points and the Edit credit

u/RazzmatazzNovel7341 on r/ChaseSapphire, January 2026

  • Breakfast
  • $100 credit
  • Early check-in
  • Late checkout

Their take: A comfortable and very cheap stay with breakfast, an 11AM check-in and a 4pm checkout offer, though the New Bund location is far from the main sights and quiet at night.

Details
Paid
2 nights for $452.12, paid with points boost as 10k points plus $250 in cash for the Edit credit to cover
Check-in
Checked in at 11AM
Breakfast
Free hotel breakfast
$100 credit
US$100 (700RMB) for the restaurants and bar; they and their companion each booked a room, and each got the credit
Upgrade
The hotel said they had been upgraded, though it did not feel like it; the room was about 50 square meters with a square bathtub big enough for two
Late checkout
4pm was offered
Points
After they emailed the hotel, their IHG number was added and the stay showed about 5600 IHG points, still pending afterwards
Watch out
The New Bund location is a business district that goes quiet after 10pm, so it is the subway or Didi to reach the Bund; a 60RMB IHG Platinum voucher could not be combined with the $100 credit
