U.S. Consumer Platinum Card Members may receive up to a total of $200 in statement credits each calendar year, across all Cards on the Account, when using their eligible Platinum Card on eligible, prepaid Fine Hotels + Resorts and The Hotel Collection bookings made through American Express Travel (meaning through amextravel.com, the Amex® App, or by calling the phone number on the back of your eligible Platinum Card).

To receive the statement credits, an eligible Card Member must make a new booking using their eligible Platinum Card through American Express Travel that is prepaid (referred to as “Pay Now” on amextravel.com and the Amex App), for a qualifying stay at an available, participating Fine Hotels + Resorts or The Hotel Collection property.

Bookings of The Hotel Collection require a minimum stay of two consecutive nights. Eligible bookings must be made before December 31st, 11:59PM Central Time, each calendar year to be eligible for statement credits within that year. Statement credits may not be received or may be reversed if the booking is cancelled or modified.

haha... down to $75 and still no buyer. with availability only on overpriced high end hotels, it seems it's pretty useless with only a month left to go. I tried to find one with less than $300 a night for a weekend gateway but couldn't find any in my city.
any taker at $70?

Are you implying that you need to stay before January? Because why is it that hard to find something for 2022 under $200?

These are exclusively for use on premium priced hotels. If you find one below $200 please share.

Right, it dawned on me that stay doesn't have to be completed by 12/31... just needs to be booked by 12/31 11:59pm Central in order to received the credit for given year. Plus I was searching wrong... i was searching for just 1 night and that won't give you "Hotel Collection" choices... only FHR. I searched for 2 nights and found several charging less than $150 a night even in December and since I needed a couple of elite night credit at Hyatt to re-qualify for Globalist, i made a booking for like $140 net after $200 credit at a nice boutique downtown Hyatt (Motif Seattle, a Destination by Hyatt Hotel) . Plus I get $100 credit and on top of it and being a Globalist, I get free breakfast and waved resort/destination fee. It turned out to be a great little mattress run.
