INSIGHT

Hyatt's Suite Advantage For Families

  • Hyatt stands out for families because of suite award pricing and larger room footprints compared to many brands.
  • Published suite award rates make planning point redemptions predictable for family space needs.
ADVICE

Use Hyatt's 50% Second Room Plan

  • Call Hyatt to ask about their family plan rate which can book a second room at 50% off the standard cash rate.
  • Be prepared that not all properties participate and agents may be unfamiliar, so call again if needed.
ADVICE

Book What You Need, Don't Gamble On Upgrades

  • If you need guaranteed space, book the suite or extra room rather than relying on elite upgrades.
  • Use published suite award rates to plan points spending instead of gambling on upgrades.
