I love a good Peninsula experience, and have a little bucket list item that consists of staying at every Peninsula hotel in the world. There aren’t many, 12, mostly in Asia, and I’ve stayed at 3 of them so far ( New York, Beijing, and Bangkok). This offers goes until 12/31/24, Merry Christmas!
Take a look at our reviews of the Peninsula Beijing and Bangkok. The one in Beijing is unbelievably nice and crazy affordable
If you’re unfamiliar with Peninsula they are a very small, uber lux brand with just 10 properties in the world. Here’s a list and when they opened ( thanks Wikipedia ).
- The Peninsula Hong Kong – 1928
- The Peninsula Manila – 1976
- The Peninsula New York – 1988
- The Peninsula Beijing – 1989
- The Peninsula Beverly Hills – 1991
- The Peninsula Bangkok – 1998

Personally, I’d take the 10k Membership Rewards, as I utilize them to transfer into partners and get a value way higher than $100. That’s just me…

We keep an up to date spreadsheet that lists the best ever offers: You can find that spreadsheet here.
Historically 80k is a very, very good offer and hit in both 2022 and 2023. In 2021, we saw the offer hit an all time high of 100k. Who knows if that will ever come back.
Main Cast:
Cards that earn flexible points and should be used on the bulk of your purchases.
Supporting Cast:
Cards that earn fixed points in the currency of the airline/hotel and can not be transferred at attractive rates. These cards yield benefits that make it worth keeping, but not necessarily worth putting a lot of your everyday spend on.
The Chase Sapphire Preferred® is exceptional starter card and offers transferrable Ultimate Rewards, and pairs well with other Chase cards.
If you carry this card alongside Chase’s cashback cards like the Chase Freedom Flex® and Chase Freedom Unlimited® or the business versions: Ink Business Cash® , Ink Business Unlimited® you can combine the points into Preferred account and transfer into hotel and airline partners
