Last Chance: Book Hyatt Award Night, Get Up to 25% of Your Points Back

Let’s get straight to the point…some of the links on this site pay 1TattedPassport a referral bonus for anyone that is approved.

2020 has been challenging for the hotel industry. Numerous reports have documented the weeks (and months in some instances) where many hotels saw single digit occupancy rates. Hotels have made small efforts to increase their occupancy rates, but similar to the airlines, they have been lacking in creativity.

If you have been steadily increasing your points stash, you may want to consider the next promotion by Hyatt as they are offering up to 25% rebate on stays. Let’s look at the details.

HYATT PROMOTION DETAILS

Right now, Hyatt is offering a rebate up to 25% on award stays. This promotion is split into two offers:

  • World of Hyatt members can save 15% when they REGISTER HERE
  • Those with The World of Hyatt Credit Card can can save an additional 10% (for a total of 25%), when they REGISTER HERE
  • YOU HAVE TO REGISTER BETWEEN July 8 and September 1, 2020
  • Only points redeemed between July 8 and October 8, 2020 (“Promotion Period”) will be eligible for this promotion.
  • Bonus Points will post directly to your World of Hyatt account (not as credit card statement)
  • Free parking
  • Exclusions: Not valid at Hyatt Residence Club resorts, M life Rewards destinations, Small Luxury Hotels of the World hotels or Lindblad Expeditions.

It’s worth noting that to be eligible for these offers, the entire stay must be completed during the Promotion Period.

The terms recommend that you “allow 6 to 8 weeks after your point redemption has been completed for your Bonus Points to appear in your World of Hyatt account” though in my experience, the points have posted to my account much faster.

HOW DO I GET HYATT POINTS

Hyatt points are relatively easy to accumulate. I recommend obtaining a Chase Sapphire card or the cobranded Chase Hyatt card.

Chase Ultimate Reward (UR) points can be transferred from Chase to Hyatt at a 1:1 rate. For example, 60,000 UR points = 60,000 Hyatt points therefore Chase Sapphire cards are good options.

The Chase Sapphire Preferred Card (CSP) has the following sign-up bonus: Earn 60,000 bonus points after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.
The Chase Sapphire Reserve Card (CSR) has the following sign-up bonus: Earn 50,000 bonus points after you spend $4,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.
The World of Hyatt Card has the following welcome bonus: Earn up to 50,000 Bonus Points – 25,000 Bonus Points after you spend $3,000 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening plus an additional 25,000 Bonus Points after you spend a total of $6,000 on purchases within the first 6 months of account opening.

FINAL STAMP

Unlike some other hotel chains, Hyatt never charges a resort fee on an award night and free nights also count toward elite tier status. A 25% rebate only sweetens the pot.

If you have travel on the calendar or are considering a trip, I would definitely recommend registering for this promo. And as always, even if you don’t have travel scheduled go ahead and register, it can’t hurt. Don’t waste your points by simply not registering for the promotion.

Are you planning to take advantage of this promotion?
