What hotels are in The Reserve by Citi Travel?

The Reserve exclusively contains premium 4.5- and 5-star hotels.

Citi Travel contains a large selection of both chain and boutique hotels. Citi Travel is consistently adding to this list, and has recently added Omni as the first major Reserve and Hotel Collection partner. This exciting addition has brought in 49 properties across both Collections, including the renowned Omni PGA Frisco Resort, where guests can experience the luxuries of the resort and the life of a professional golfer, among other lavish offerings.

What are the benefits of The Reserve?

The Reserve gives you all the benefits of the Hotel Collection, plus some deluxe extras.

When you book a hotel with The Reserve rate at checkout, you will receive daily breakfast for two, complimentary Wi-Fi, a complimentary $100 experience credit (which can be used on many on-property purchases ranging from food to spa treatments), early check-in and late checkout privileges based on availability, and the possibility of a complimentary room upgrade based on availability. The experience credit varies by property.

Citi Travel is also an excellent way to experience certain hotels with additional perks that might not be available when booking directly. And, if you book with Citi Travel using a credit card that earns ThankYou® Points, you can earn additional points that you can redeem for even more travel.

How do you book hotels with The Reserve by Citi Travel?

To reserve your room, begin by logging onto Citi Travel or on the Citi Mobile® App using your Citi Online User ID and password. Once there, enter your destination, travel dates, number of guests and number of rooms. On the results page, each property will have a tag indicating which tier of the program it corresponds to – look for the ones that say The Reserve.
