When I think of Fairmont hotels, images of grand chateau styled hotels overlooking breathtaking vistas and cityscapes come to mind. This image is primarily Fairmonts located in Canada, and while those properties are gorgeous,  Canada is still pretty locked up to foreigners. In the past, this Amex Offer has included Canada, but this time around, the deal is exclusively for the US and Mexico properties. Thankfully, Sofitel properties are also included.

I currently hold 7 Amex cards and pay over $1200 a year in annual fees. Amex Offers is a great way to knock down the total out of pocket cost to maintain card membership.

I had a wonderful Afternoon Tea at the Fairmont Edmonton a couple years ago and would definitely stay there if I were to return to the city once the country opens.

I stayed at the Fairmont Montreal pre-renovation and wasn’t too impressed, but I’ve heard really good things post reno, and would be interested to return.

Qualifying purchase means a purchase at a participating Fairmont Hotels & Resorts and Sofitel Hotels and Resorts property made during the offer period with your enrolled American Express Card and which is in an amount of at least $500 USD as posted to your account, following conversion from a foreign currency, if applicable, in accordance with your Cardmember Agreement. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled Card account must not be cancelled or past due to receive statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 9/30/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer. POID: K279:0001
