Overview

India's first hotel co-branded card. The maths is simple: one Free Night Award worth up to 15,000 Bonvoy points every year (welcome and renewal) against a ₹3,000 fee — if you stay at Marriott properties even twice a year, the card usually pays for itself.

Best for

  • Marriott loyalists who stay at Bonvoy properties at least 1–2 times a year.
  • Bonvoy members building Elite status — 10 free Elite Night Credits fast-track Gold.
  • Travellers who want a self-paying hotel card alongside a general miles card.

Not ideal for

  • Anyone who doesn't stay at Marriott properties — points and Free Nights have no value outside Bonvoy.
  • Note the card runs on the Diners Club network, which has patchier acceptance than Visa/Mastercard.

Plain math

A 15,000-point Free Night Award covers a standard night at properties like Fairfield, Four Points or many Courtyards — typically ₹8,000–₹12,000 in cash rates. One welcome night plus Silver Elite already exceeds the ₹3,000 fee.

Lounge access

12 complimentary lounge accesses per year within India (domestic and international terminals) using the card.
