Hotel credit cards with Late Check-out benefits.
I'm sort of over Marriott Brands. At this point the only reason I stay there is I need late check-out quite often.
Is there a hotel branded credit card that would get me "guaranteed" late checkout? I don't care about luxury brands, but I do stay in many different cities across the US.
Thanks.

Within that chain, the 4:00 p.m. late check-out benefit is available solely to Marriott Bonv∘y Platinum Elite members and above.
The only credit card that can get that status is Marriott Brilliant AmEx, at $650 per year.

Basically, if free late check-out is something you value, Hilton, especially in the US, is not the hotel brand family for you (and neither is IHG). If you also value a US footprint that has properties everywhere, you're basically stuck with Marriott.

It appears that IHG offers the same "subject to availability" 2PM check-out feature to all One Club members, no status required. I would research in the IHG forum to learn if status increases availability.
