Who this card is good for

The Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant® American Express® Card is great for frequent travelers who like to get the royal treatment at Marriott hotels. The card’s many perks could allow you to maximize your experience, and the welcome bonus and high points-earning rates can help you build up a rewards balance quickly.

But keep in mind that occasional guests might not have the chance to use these features enough to justify the annual fee. Even if you prefer to stay at Marriott, you might be better off with one of Marriott Bonvoy’s other rewards cards.
