Best travel rewards credit card with lowest credit score?

Hi all,

 

I was just wondering what is the best travel rewards credit card that can approve you with the lowest credit score. I love to travel and want to use for hotel stays. I know i wont be applying for anything anytime soon but once the time comes, i would like to know which card to apply for that has the best chances of getting approved.

It depends on what you want in a travel card: psedo cash back (arrival, venture, BoA Travel Rewards etc), partner cards (Citi Aa, Chase United etc), cards which transfer to a group of partners (Amex SPG, Amex MR, Chase UR, Citi TYP),  and what perks you are after (lounge access, free nights etc(

Would really like free hotel nights, or whatever i can use to get free hotels nights as easy as possible. No annual fee would be great but unless you have excellent credit i wont hold my breath for it. Just a card that i could get with an average fico score where i can earn free hotel nights.
