Y'all are getting off topic. The question was looking for ideas about hotel points, not airlines.

Well, the Marriott Rewards card is a baby Ritz card, works at the same hotels. 1 free night (in certain categories) plus 50,000 points. This would be the obvious fallback if you were getting the Ritz to go with Marriott-family hotels.

 

The Hyatt card has a smaller spend requirement and you get 2 nights in any category hotel, no bonus points on the signup.


If it comes with 1 free night what are the 50k bonus points get me? could they be used for night stays?


Yes, the 50k points can be used with varying levels based on the category of Marriott hotel you stay at: Lower category, more nights. Higher category, fewer (or one) nights. You will also earn points (same type of deal) when you pay at Marriott hotels with the card. The points work similar to a frequent flyer program: earn and save for future nights credits.
