Aside from the hotel brand, one of the biggest differences between these two cards comes down to your earning rate. The Hilton Honors American Express Card earns 7x points on Hilton purchases, 5x at US restaurants, gas stations and supermarkets and 3x on all other purchases. The Marriott Bonvoyâ„¢ American Express® Card earns 6x points at participating hotels and just 2x points on all other purchases.
