Our Take
Based on recent AwardWallet user redemptions, World of Hyatt points are worth 2.19¢ each. At this rate, the 500-point Hyatt new hotel bonus is only worth around $11, so it's not worth going out of your way to visit these hotels. But if you can stay at one of these hotels in the next couple of months, then it's a great way to sweeten your visit.
When you book, don't forget to use a The World of Hyatt Credit Card to receive 4X points. This card also offers Hyatt Discoverist elite status and many other perks.
- Earn 30,000 Bonus Points after you spend $3,000 on purchases in your first 3 months from account opening. Plus, up to 30,000 More Bonus Points by earning 2 Bonus Points total per $1 spent in the first 6 months from account opening on purchases that normally earn 1 Bonus Point, on up to $15,000 spent.
- Enjoy complimentary World of Hyatt Discoverist status for as long as your account is open.
- Get 1 free night each year after your Cardmember anniversary at any Category 1-4 Hyatt hotel or resort
- Receive 5 tier qualifying night credits towards status after account opening, and each year after that for as long as your account is open
- Earn an extra free night at any Category 1-4 Hyatt hotel if you spend $15,000 in a calendar year
- Earn 2 qualifying night credits towards tier status every time you spend $5,000 on your card

I am missing a Hyatt staying; thanks for sharing it.
Big fans of Hyatt as well! Nice article!
No award pricing included in the chart? Would be nice to know at least what categories these are
Ah, good idea. That’s going to take a bit of research, but we will see if we can add that to the chart.
Big fan of Hyatt stays. Thanks for sharing.
great deal im goning to keeo it in mind for my trip on february
Hyatt still has the best hotels rewards program notwithstanding the recent devaluation. Anything to earn extra hyatt is good in my book.
Alas, none are in places where I’d use them this year.
Wow. Is this in addition to AAdvantage giving 1000 miles for each Hyatt stay?
For qualifying stays, yes!
Sorry, but dynamic pricing on Hyatt points redemptions have reduced the value of the points even further.
It is great that ZRH now has two hotels directly connected to the terminal.
Good program. I just would like to see more options for staying located in South America
Personally, would not go out of my way for 500 points. At 1,000 points, maybe…
May I ask how you come up with 2.25 cents each? I know it’s an average but what properties are you looking at to get huge value? And we’re not talking inflated prices like the cash price of a hotel in New York on New Year’s Eve right?
Fabio – see here. https://awardwallet.com/point-mile-values/hyatt This comes from data pulled on reservations tracked in award programs where people store their info with AwardWallet and/or submit their reservations to the AwardWallet “trips” section to keep an agenda of their travel. It’s an average of any bookings our users have made.
500 points adds up if you have multiple stays planned.
Free breakfast as an incentive option would be nice.
This looks fab, I hope I can take advantage of it – thanks for the tip
I guess they are just trying to get people to try the new hotels in their network. 500 points is not a lot that would make me change my hotel preference though.
Not the biggest incentive to stay but every little helps
As you surmised it’s not worth 500 points to go out of your way to book but nice if you were staying anyways!
Good deal. Thanks.
500 of something for nothing if you were going to stay anyway. Pretty good deal
Not a huge incentive, but hey, if you’re gonna be staying there anyway, might as well get the extra 500 points…..Hyatt is still the best major hotel points program around despite their smaller selection of hotels worldwide.
New properties is a good thing. Keep them coming and expand your footprint!
Looks like a good deal. Seems like most of the Hyatts i’ve stayed at recently have been great experiences.
Never a bad thing to get some free points
Gee, 500 whole points. If it was a little higher, might be somewhat enticing
I agree, would this really move the needle for anyone?
Talk about timing…I stayed at Hyatt hotels in one of the cities on the list, and at Hiltons on two others just last month. (Charlotte, Phoenix, & Houston) Redeemed some other amazing promotions such that I don’t feel FOMO, but this would’ve been sprinkles on the icing had I known about it.
Nice extra bonus but I wouldn’t go out of my way to stay there for the bonus.
Great tip! I’m planning a trip to NYC and this is a very useful data.
I am planning a trip to NYC in December so I might be trying the Hyatt Place New York / Chelsea. Thanks for the tip! 🙂
Hotel Figueroa is a cool place. I’ve stayed there a few times. Nice boutique hotel in DTLA.
Thanks for the tips. I’ll travel travel to Nashville next month.
I hear Hyatt is very good to their members especially the elite. While there are limitations on this promo, I’ll still check them out.
Hyatt has one of the best rewards programs IMO, the points are worth more than other hotel brand points, and they do treat members well. The customer service I’ve received has been excellent. They always try to accommodate my requests and answer emails really quickly, often within a few hours. They don’t have as many properties as other brands, but are adding new ones all the time, they run a lot of bonus promos, and if you have an American Airlines Aadvantage account and link it to your WOH account, they give you Hyatt points for every AA flight. I’d highly recommend the World of Hyatt card if you become a member. The annual anniversary free night reward alone is worth more than the $95 annual fee, plus you get Discoverist elite status and your Hyatt points won’t expire.
Still a pain in the backside to do any real travel,,,, Is 500 points worth the aggravation
Hyatt is my go-to for booking award nights since they have a set chart.
Look forward to Samui again some day
I have stayed at Hyatt place LAX. prolly not the best experience but still acceptable.
I certainly would have stayed at some of these hotels if my travel plans had taken me to those locations. There are a few in the midwest, but none where I have been working. I’ll always choose a Hyatt if I can and I’m glad to see their footprint growing.
May I ask how you come up with 2.25 cents each? I know it’s an average but what properties are you looking at to get huge value? And we’re not talking inflated prices like the cash price of a hotel in New York on New Year’s Eve right?
Hi Darren, the average is based off of 18,630 bookings as of today. The numbers DO include inflated prices like New York on NYE. But with over 18K award data points, pricy dates shouldn’t be a big factor in the overall average. You can see a breakdown by Hyatt brand here: https://awardwallet.com/point-mile-values/Hyatt
Mile value averages are weighted by the number of points redeemed. For example, an award that gets a value of X cents per point on 100,000 points redeemed has twice the impact (on the average) as redeeming 50,000 points.
I see this offer from Hyatt pretty often, never have been able to cash in on it though.
A quite poor promotion.
Especially because the goal is to promote the new hotels that normally don’t have any customers.
Some of those eligible dates seem speculative. For example, Hyatt Place Vadodara shows eligibile dates as Jul 1 – Sep 30, yet the hotel is not open for business until mid-Nov.
So that’s how they get you :/ Good catch on that. Seems Hyatt needs to update its promotion dates.
I really enjoy staying at Hyatt Centric. It can be a bit barebones, but it’s always in the center of the cities’ action, and i love that!
I guess it is better than nothing. If you have stays in any of the hotels in the areas that they have bonuses on, this will not change any stays though.
New hotels can be a bit of a gamble so I like the idea of a small incentive like this.
I’ve definitely read a couple of horror stories about things like the AC not working at a new hotel.
I just stayed in a new hotel recently without knowing it was new (I just booked a hotel in Amarillo based on price/location – no clue it was new). I show up and the pool is still under construction. Quite frustrating to say the least.
It is welcome news that even award stays are qualified for the bonus.
I really like Hyatt’s program as I feel i am getting the most out of my points. With marriott, there is so many blackout dates on certificates and award bookings
2.25 cents each? I guess it’s splitting hairs but I baseline them at 2 cents each. Anything more is outstanding and I don’t book anything less.
Congrats to Hyatt on being able to expand at a time when other hotels have been contracting by selling properties.
Too bad this is such a short window to stay. Hopefully there are some good bonus opportunities in the second half of the year as things open up again.
Hyatt Hotels are great, I liked this prootion a lot!
I am really a fan of Hyatt hotels, and with extra benefits like this, it makes it easier to justify searching them out. I only with there were more Hyatt house locations across the US.
There are some wonderful properties on the list, but it is still a bit early for us.
I didn’t think that I would have the opportunity to stay at any of these hotels, but there’s at least one that is in an area where I work. I’ll have to keep that in mind. I usually stay at the Hyatt place but I can stay at a Hyatt House if it means some extra points.
Great offer, but I don’t think we’ll be staying in a hotel just yet.
I feel the same, I wonder when it’ll feel normal again?
AwardWallet is a great service and a convenient way to earn AA miles. Thanks
Thanks for the list of participating hotels. I might be able to take advantage of this offer!
