Hyatt\u2019s acquisition of Mr & Mrs Smith has become one of the most significant recent expansions of the World of Hyatt program. Around 1,000 Mr & Mrs Smith properties now participate in World of Hyatt, giving members far more boutique and luxury hotel options around the world.<\/p>\n

But the integration comes with trade-offs. Members can earn and redeem Hyatt points at participating properties, but elite benefits are limited, award pricing is dynamic, and many familiar Hyatt perks don\u2019t apply.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you need to know before booking a Mr & Mrs Smith stay through World of Hyatt.<\/p>\n

What Is Mr & Mrs Smith?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Mr & Mrs Smith is a curated collection and booking platform for independent luxury hotels around the world. Its portfolio includes more than 2,300 boutique hotels, resorts, and villas, ranging from treehouses and safari lodges to beachfront retreats and city hotels.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, around 1,000 of those properties currently participate in World of Hyatt<\/a>, with additional hotels expected to join over time.<\/p>\n

Unlike traditional Hyatt brands like Park Hyatt or Andaz, Mr & Mrs Smith doesn't operate under a single set of brand standards. Each property is independently owned, so the experience can vary significantly from one hotel to the next.<\/p>\n

Locations of Mr & Mrs Smith Properties<\/span><\/h2>\n

The best way to view all participating Mr & Mrs Smith properties is to head to Hyatt's Hotels & Resorts map and filter<\/a> by the Mr & Mrs Smith brand. You can also browse properties on the Mr & Mrs Smith website, but that will display the entire portfolio \u2014 including hotels that don't participate in World of Hyatt.<\/p>\n

Benefits at Mr & Mrs Smith Hotels<\/span><\/h2>\n

You'll still receive several World of Hyatt benefits at participating Mr & Mrs Smith hotels. However, because these are independently operated properties, some perks are unique to each hotel, while others differ from the benefits you'd typically receive at a traditional Hyatt brand.<\/p>\n

Smith Extra<\/span><\/h3>\n

When booking a participating Mr & Mrs Smith property, you'll enjoy a complimentary “Smith Extra.” This perk is listed on the property's booking page and varies by hotel. For example, one luxury treehouse in Sweden<\/a> offers guests a complimentary two-hour visit to its tree sauna.<\/p>\n

Every participating property offers its own Smith Extra, so be sure to check the booking page to see what's included with your stay. What extras, you ask?<\/p>\n

World of Hyatt elite benefits<\/span><\/h3>\n

World of Hyatt Globalist members staying at these participating Mr & Mrs Smith hotels receive a room upgrade if available at check-in.<\/p>\n

For those of us who have grown accustomed to all the niceties of being a Hyatt Globalist<\/a> \u2014 from free daily breakfast for up to two adults and two children, waived resort fees, free parking when on a points stay, and many other perks \u2014 stays at Mr & Mrs Smith will feel like a bit of a letdown from that perspective. No other elite in-hotel benefits are extended to Hyatt members.<\/p>\n

You'll also note that none of your hard-earned Milestone Rewards<\/a> can be used at these hotels. Guest of Honor Awards<\/a>, Suite Upgrade Awards, Club Lounge Access Awards, and more importantly, Free Night Awards<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 whether earned through status, your credit card, or Brand Explorer<\/a> \u2014 can't be used at Mr & Mrs Smith hotels either, unfortunately.<\/p>\n

World of Hyatt point earnings<\/span><\/h3>\n

You'll earn the same number of points at Mr & Mrs Smith properties as you do at other Hyatt-branded properties. Members earn 5 base points per dollar spent, and you can earn more with Hyatt elite status<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you use The World of Hyatt Credit Card<\/a> (Rates & Fees<\/a>), you can earn up to 9 points per dollar spent \u2014 5 base points plus 4 bonus points for staying at Hyatt hotels and resorts.<\/p>\n
