Capital One is growing its travel portfolio. The latest addition? Another hotel collection available for even more cardholders.

Earlier this year, Capital One launched the Premier Collection, a luxury hotel program exclusively for Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card holders. Today, Capital One is introducing another hotel offering: the Lifestyle Collection.

Capital One says this new program focuses on boutique, premium hotels that “offer trendy, modern design and access to great dining, arts, and culture.” It’s also open to more cardholders than before, including the fan-favorite Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card.

Here’s a closer look at the new Lifestyle Collection from Capital One Travel.

The Lifestyle Collection From Capital One

Capital One’s Premier Collection provides elite-like benefits on hotel stays, including daily breakfast for 2 guests, a $100 “experience” credit to be used at the property, and room upgrades when available. This is Capital One’s competitor against American Express’ Fine Hotels + Resorts and Chase’s Luxury Hotel & Resort Collection.

In contrast, the new Lifestyle Collection is less luxury-focused, though it’s still a curated array of premium, independent hotels. Eligible cardholders who book Lifestyle Collection properties will enjoy these perks:

  • A $50 experience credit to use toward rooftop drinks, signature hotel restaurants, room service, or other activities during your stay
  • Room upgrades, when available at check-in
  • Early check-in and late checkout, when available
  • Complimentary Wi-Fi

When it launches later this year, the new Lifestyle Collection (bookable only through Capital One Travel) will be available for customers with the following cards:

For those with the Capital One Venture X card, you’ll earn 10x miles per $1 spent on these bookings. Meanwhile, those who hold the Capital One Venture card, Capital One Spark Miles card, or Capital One Spark Miles Select card will earn 5x miles on reservations.

The best element is the flexibility offered by the Lifestyle Collection, as there’s no minimum stay requirement within the program. This is a clear advantage over Amex’s competing program, The Hotel Collection, which requires a 2-night minimum stay. That said, individual hotels may have their own minimum stay requirements.

In addition, those who hold the Capital One Venture X card can use their $300 annual credit for bookings made on Capital One Travel toward Lifestyle Collection stays.

Final Thoughts

Capital One’s new Lifestyle Collection will be available to more customers than its premium sibling, the Premier Collection. The Lifestyle Collection will include several recognizable independent hotel brands, such as Virgin Hotels, The Standard, and Design Hotels. However, it will also feature boutique properties like The Ludlow in New York City.

Capital One cardholders will gain access to the Lifestyle Collection later this year, available exclusively through the Capital One Travel platform.
