The Edit is one of those Chase perks that sounds amazing—luxury hotels, free breakfast, late checkout, and up to $500 back each year. The catch? It’s really hard/difficult to use. The eligible Edit hotels are buried inside Chase Travel, there’s no master list of hotels, and most of the ones you do find are painfully expensive. It’s a great idea with a lot of potential, but terrible usability… until now?
EditMaxxer is a tool designed to let you quickly see all the Edit hotels in both a map/list + shows you the lowest pricing throughout the year.
If you have a Chase Sapphire Reserve®, Sapphire Reserve for Business℠, or J.P. Morgan Reserve card, you have an annual credit for stays with The Edit. Prior to the recent Sapphire changes, I had barely heard of The Edit and had little to no reason to use it.
What Is The Edit?
The Edit is essentially Chase’s version of American Express’s Fine Hotels and Resorts program.
It’s essentially a collection of “luxury hotel” bookings that include a bunch of perks like daily breakfast for two, a property credit, and late checkout when available. In theory, it’s a nice benefit. However, the prices of Edit hotels tends to lean somewhat astronomical.
How Do I Find Qualifying Edit Hotels?
To find qualifying Edit hotels, you need to do the following:
- Login into Chase Travel (https://www.chase.com/travel)
- Search for a “Stay” (hotel stay); note: for the credit to apply, the stay must be at least 2 nights long
- Look for “The Edit” badge in the top left of the hotel
To help narrow the number of hotels, you could also toggle the “Points Boost” button to only show eligible Points Boost hotels. However, while all Edit Hotels are eligible for Points Boost, not all Points Boost hotels are Edit hotels. See the example below where the "NH Collection Grand Sablon" has Points Boost, but is not an eligible Edit property:
Is There A Way To See All Edit Hotels through Chase?
Yes, there is now a way to see a list view of all the Edit hotels, but you must have a qualifying card that has an Edit credit . You need to:
- Login to your Chase account with your card that has The Edit credit
- Click on Chase Travel
- Scroll down until your see "Discover The Edit by Chase Travel"
- View all stays; you can now filter by region and curated collection.
With this list, we can see that there are roughly ~1,400 Edit hotels worldwide, but:
- The filters for this list are not particularly intuitive/user friendly
- There is no map view
- You still can't see the Points Boost value for each of the hotels
- The platform is not particularly fast
- No pricing data
If you’ve poked through Edit hotels, you’ll notice that many of them are pretty expensive. That means it’s hard to answer a basic question: Where can I actually get a good deal with my $500 Edit credit?
Our Solution: The Edit Hotel Map - "EditMaxxer"
The EditMaxxer is the best and only tool out there with real pricing data on the Edit hotels. It allows you to compare the lowest nightly rates across all 1,400 hotels so that you can maximize the value of your Reserve's Edit credit.
Here’s how it works:
- You can view the hotels on the map freely
- No account is required if you just want to see the next 14 days of prices, but if you want to access pricing for the rest of the year, you’ll need to create a free account
- Once you're logged in, you can access the full year of pricing data, including powerful filters like Points Boost
What Are The Average Prices Of Edit Hotels?
As of our date pull from January 07, 2026, here are some stats on Edit hotel pricing:
- The average price across all 1,400 hotels is $1035/night
- The median price across all 1,400 hotels is $978/night
- The lowest average priced hotel is the Moire Hoi An at $185.15
What Are The Cheapest Edit Hotels?
Based on the data we’ve gathered so far, the more affordable Edit hotels on a per night basis are in:
- Washington DC (Viceroy)
- Sydney (Hotel Indigo Auckland)
- Las Vegas (MGM Grand, Park MGM)
- Cincinnati (21C Museum Hotel)
- Da Nang (Moire Hoi An)
While Vegas comes at no surprise (there are several combos where you can get 2 nights covered entirely by the credit), we found it very interesting that Washington DC and Sydney have pretty reasonable rates.
I used my Edit credit at the Park MGM for a 2 night stay. It cost me just $270 to book through The Edit and my entire $250 credit for 2025 was used.
What’s The Best Way To Use The Edit Credit?
Even if you’re staying at Edit hotels in the cities where they’re cheaper, you’ll typically find yourself paying a bit out of pocket (whilst earning 8x on Chase Travel using your Chase Sapphire Reserve®. There’s a pretty nice “trick” you can do to maximize your credit whilst also leveraging points boost.
All Edit Hotels are eligible for the maximum end of Points Boost, meaning when redeeming points at Edit Hotels through the portal, you get 2 cents per point.
What you need to do is select the “Use Points” and adjust the “Points to Redeem” such that you leave exactly $250 to be charged to your card. If you do that, then $250 will be charged to your card, and the Edit Credit will be eligible for that portion.
So for this booking, it costs $741.79 total, but breaking down the credits:
- $250 Edit Credit
- 24,590 points used (2 CPP Points Boost, worth $491.79)
With this method, you can score some pretty valuable bookings!
