How to Get Marriott Gold Elite Status for £90, Without Staying 25 Nights

If you love staying at Marriott hotels but don’t have an Amex Platinum card, here’s some great news for you.

You can now earn Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite status for just £90, instead of completing 25 nights or holding the Platinum Amex.

Why this is a big deal

Gold Elite status normally requires 25 nights per year or a premium credit card like Amex Platinum (£650/year). But with this new offer from CitizenM, you can unlock the same benefits for a fraction of the price.

CitizenM recently joined the Marriott Bonvoy portfolio, which means their mycitizenM+ membership (£90/year) now includes Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite.

What You Get with Marriott Bonvoy Gold Elite

When you book directly through Marriott, you’ll enjoy:

  • 25% Elite Bonus Points on your stay

  • Enhanced Room Upgrades (when available)

  • 2 p.m. Late Checkout

  • Welcome Gift of extra points

  • Ultimate Reservation Guarantee

  • Exclusive Member Rates

What You Get with mycitizenM+

If you love design hotels and city breaks, the mycitizenM+ membership gives you:

  • 15% off retail rates on all direct bookings

  • Up to 30% off during sales

  • 15% off food & drinks

  • 15% off meeting rooms

  • Free coworking

Together, this is one of the most affordable ways to enjoy elite status across Marriott and CitizenM properties.

How Long Does the Status Last?

Your mycitizenM+ membership is valid for one year from the date you sign up.

If you joined during a special promotion, such as a free trial (for example, two months free), that trial period is added to the start of your membership.

This means your total membership could last up to 14 months, two months free, plus 12 months paid.

During the free trial period, you can cancel anytime with no obligation, and your paid 12-month period won’t begin unless you decide to continue.

Final Thoughts

Even with the £90 annual fee, this offer is still fantastic value, especially if you stay at Marriott hotels a few times per year. You’ll easily make your money back through room upgrades, late checkout, and bonus points.

If you’ve been wanting to test out Marriott’s loyalty programme or simply enjoy elite benefits without elite prices, this is the easiest way to do it.

You can sign up directly on CitizenM’s website and link your Marriott Bonvoy account to unlock your Gold Elite status automatically.
