Among the many new offers added to our Current Amex Offers database today are offers for Hyatt brands Thompson and Park Hyatt as well as Hyatt partner SLH (Small Luxury Hotels of the World). These are certainly worth syncing up if you’ve got upcoming stays (and I always recommend syncing even if not just in case).
The Deal
- Amex Offers are out today for participating Park Hyatt ($150 back on $750 or more), Hyatt Thompson ($60 back on $300 or more) and Small Luxury Hotels of the World ($100 back on $300 or more). Enrollment required.

Quick Thoughts
All three of these offers represent rare opportunities for card-linked savings with these brands. Obviously if you have a stay with one of these brands in the coming months, it is a no-brainer to sync up corresponding offers.
Keep in mind that some participating properties may be available via Amex Fine Hotels & Resorts. While a prepaid stay at one of them probably will not trigger the Amex Offer, a stay where you pay at the property likely would work to stack those benefits with these offers despite the terms indicating that you must book directly. Alternatively, a booking through a Hyatt Prive advisor would also likely work for a participating Park Hyatt (I’m not sure whether some Thompson properties participate). For more on this, see Getting the elite experience without elite status from credit card and preferred partner booking programs.
With the SLH offer being valid in Europe, keep in mind that just as there are some exorbitantly expensive SLH properties, there are also some very reasonably-priced SLH properties across Europe (I’ve seen a few with nightly rates under 200 Euro), so although this is billed as a set of Luxury offers, you might not break the bank paying for a stay at a qualifying hotel — potentially making that sizable $100 back on $300 a very good deal indeed.

I was excited about $100 off $300 at SLH til I found that not a single SLH hotel in Malaysia is participating. We’ve got 3 stays there before the end of the year.
Can we utilize the plat credit for the SLH offer?
I think I already know the answer to this, but in the case of the SLH offer, is it possible to redeem it and earn Hyatt qualifying nights? Or does Hyatt consider booking directly with SLH a third party program, even if SLH has a box to enter alternative loyalty program information?
Came here to inquire about the same thing. The rates on the SLH are seemingly better than WOH, but I would prefer to get qualifying nights and my WOHxSLH benefits on-site (like the early check-in/late check-out, free breakfast).
But as far as the offer itself goes, I don’t think Amex can tell if you reserved with WOH or SLH so long as you pay at the hotel during your stay.
I echo Jorge’s points. Going to try it out in Europe and raise hell if there’s an issue.
You can raise all the hell you want, but it says on the hyatt site to get hyatt elite benefits you must book through Hyatt at SLH. Likely, it’s the hyatt generated booking cofirmation that triggers the hyatt credits. An SLH booking code wouldnt be recognized in Hyatt systems, but try it, prove me setting and raise hell…
