If you have an Emigrant Savings account with 10k you can get their Cashback mastercard that pays you 1.4% of all purchases every 6 months and deposits it directly into your account just like the interest.

Cash back is good but nothing comes close to the Starwood Preferred guest for maximizing value. You get 10k points for sign-up and the first year is fee free ($35 a year after that). You earn 1 point per dollar spent but the real value comes at redemption. Hotel stays start at 3k points a night. I booked a recent trip for 3k points a night. The lowest price for the room after some research was $140. This puts the value of each point over at 4.5 cents. No black dates either. If there is a room available it cane be booked. Can't use a hotel stay? You can convert 20k points to 25k miles on most airlines.

I am a credit card whore and avoid annual fees like the plague. This is the only card that I will happily pay an annual fee for.

Is Starwood good at any hotel or is Starwood a chain?

I believe it works on other hotels. See the footnotes at http://web.ncf.ca/be960/reviews/creditcard.html#10 for details.
