Value verdict
FHR is the clearest perk package here for US Platinum holders, especially when a 'night free' offer is running. Otherwise book direct at a flexible rate and re-check prices.

Insider value tips
- FHR: book Pay Now (prepaid) to trigger the Platinum $300 semi-annual hotel credit; a refundable prepaid rate still qualifies (credit is clawed back if you cancel).
- Breakfast for two at hotels of this level is often a meaningful daily cost; a package that includes it is worth more than a slightly cheaper room-only rate.
- Book a flexible rate early, then re-check weekly and rebook if the price drops.
Who it's best for
Couples and adult travelers; we haven't verified dedicated kids' facilities here.
