I can’t remember the last time I paid for breakfast. Many credit cards will automatically give you loyalty status.

The only major hotel brand with a status that offers breakfast simply for having a certain credit card is Hilton. Even with Hilton, the credit maxes out at $18/person (2 people max) in the United States. Hyatt, Marriott and IHG all require a lot more than simply having a certain credit card - either a lot of spend, nights stayed, or a combo of both.

Incorrect, the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant gives you platinum status= free breakfast.

so does Amex platinum. It's infuriating when the buffet is overpriced because the hotel knows that they have to have it for people with status and they might as well rope in any suckers
