Your experiences with Chase's Hyatt CC...

[wacdenney]

I use my Hyatt card regularly for work travel.  There are two conferences I go to every year that are at a Grand Hyatt and I appreciate the small perks more than anything.  The stuff like early and late check in and out and room upgrades.  The Hyatt properties are nice and they always treat me very well.  Also the anual free night is a very nice perk.

No experience with this card yet, but it is on my list of cards I'm thinking about getting next year. It looks like a solid card as far as hotel cobranded cards go. The 1 free night at category 1-4 is a nice perk, and the local Hyatt downtown normally runs $175 a night, so that gains $100 a year vs the annual fee.

Open, 

I read an interesting article today  (TPG)

Hyatt is offering Diamond status matches via Twitter 

The person screenshot their SPG account and sent it via Twitter and within 24 hours Hyatt got back to them and matched the offer

Hyatt is stepping up the game

This adds tremendous value to the card and the Hyatt brand as well IMHO

Out of hotel cards, Hyatt points are pretty good, especially compared to Marriot/Ritz. I have mine open for free night + platinum status, same goes for IHG.

Right, excellent offer!  The moment I saw it, I made the request via email.  

I'm considering shifting some of my business travel to Hyatt.  The Hyatt sounds very appealing, and I'll likely app for it for the 2 nights and annual free nights.  Unfortunately, I'm not very well versed on Hyatt's program and its nuances.

I am a freshly minted Diamond level member due to that status match mentioned above. I already have the Hyatt card but am new to it and still need to figure out where to use my two free nights. Now with Diamond level perks, should be enjoyable!

Matched my Spire Elite status I gained through my IHG card. Somehow my bonus points for card sign up counted towards elite status when they no longer are supposed to. Ended up with over 130,000 points from that sign up, one stay, and spire bonus. 

I have had had a great year with hotel cards so far, actually I've only had them a few months so I'm doing extremely well lol.

Right, pretty generous!  

If SPG devalues as I expect post integration, I'll likely shift the majority of my stays over to the Hyatt.

I'm surprised that Hyatt is matching Spire Elite with Diamond. As far as I understand, Spire Elite is much easier to get than Hyatt Diamond. I guess they want to win customers over?

It just keeps getting better 

If you did manage to get upgraded to Diamond, however, I have some VERY good news. Rather than just receiving four Suite Upgrade Awards valid through February 28, 2017 (when the matched status expires), you’ll receive four additional upgrades that you can redeem through February 29, 2016. So you’ll get four upgrades within 24 hours of the status match, plus another set of four in February of next year.

For those with Amex Plat card, IHG and Hilton you may be interested in this offer as well
