Renowned Hotels & Resorts: the luxury program on United’s cards
Renowned Hotels & Resorts is the successor to Chase’s Luxury Hotel & Resort Collection, and it answers a question the recent card shuffle created: when the Sapphire Reserve got The Edit, where did the old luxury program go? To the United side of the house. Renowned rides on the United co-brand cards — United Club, United Club Business, United Quest, and Presidential Plus — and books through Chase Travel, same as The Edit.
The package
The stay benefits are the familiar curated-program set: daily breakfast for two (at some hotels delivered as a breakfast credit), a property credit that runs $100 to $150 depending on the hotel, and a room upgrade with early check-in and late checkout when the hotel can manage it.
Unlike The Edit, there is no program-wide minimum stay — the package applies whether you stay one night or seven. That’s why Renowned prices on this site are per night, while Edit prices are two-night totals.
The $200 credit
The top-of-the-line United Club and United Club Business cards add a statement credit on top of the stay package: up to $200 back each anniversary year on prepaid Renowned bookings. The other eligible United cards get the on-property package without that credit.
Worth knowing
Renowned is the smallest list among the programs we track, and it overlaps heavily with The Edit — many Renowned properties are Edit hotels wearing a second label. If you hold both a Sapphire Reserve and a United card, check the same hotel on both tabs before booking: the portals price independently, and the credits differ.
- Which cards get Renowned?
- The United co-brand cards: United Club and Club Business, United Quest, and Presidential Plus. The Sapphire Reserve doesn’t — its program is The Edit.
- Is there a minimum stay?
- No. The package applies from a single night, which is why Renowned prices here are per night rather than two-night totals.
- Is this the old Luxury Hotel & Resort Collection?
- Effectively yes — same idea, new name, new home. The LHRC was a Sapphire Reserve benefit; Renowned belongs to the United cards.
- Which cards get the $200 credit?
- Chase attaches it to the United Club and United Club Business cards, up to $200 per anniversary year on prepaid Renowned bookings. The United lineup was reshuffled recently, so check your card’s own benefits page before counting on it.
