Until then, the existing three-tier system remains in place.<\/p>\n<p>If the new pricing results in a lower award cost for an existing reservation, Hyatt will automatically refund the difference in points. If pricing increases under the new structure, existing reservations will not be repriced upward.<\/p>\n<p>Award nights start at 3,000 points per night for Category 1 properties at the lowest tier and can reach 75,000 points per night for Category 8 properties at the highest tier. Members can also redeem additional points to book club-level rooms or suites, or use <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/world-of-hyatt\/book-suite-upgrades-points\/\" rel=\"noopener\">points to upgrade<\/a> an existing reservation.<\/p>\n<p>In many cases, booking a club room outright with points offers better value than upgrading after booking. However, upgrading to a standard or premium suite can make sense at higher-category properties where cash rates are especially high.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_249159\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-aspectratio=\"900\/475\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-249159 size-large lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Standard-Rooms-Old-v-New-900x475.jpg\" alt=\"Award Redemption Rates\" width=\"900\" height=\"475\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Standard-Rooms-Old-v-New-900x475.jpg 900w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Standard-Rooms-Old-v-New-750x396.jpg 750w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Standard-Rooms-Old-v-New-768x406.jpg 768w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Standard-Rooms-Old-v-New-1536x811.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Standard-Rooms-Old-v-New-2048x1082.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><center><em>Credit: Ben Nickel-D'Andrea<\/em><\/enter><\/figure>\n<p>Hyatt maintains a separate award chart for its all-inclusive resorts.

between the low and high end, Fee Night Awards aren't affected by Hyatt's redemption levels (previously peak and off-peak) pricing. Category 1\u20134 Free Nights Awards are valid at any hotels in those categories, regardless of the points pricing in effect. The same applies to Category 1\u20137 Free Night Awards.<\/p>\n<p>To maximize value, aim to redeem these certificates at the top end of their eligible category. For example, using a Category 1\u20134 Free Night Award at a higher-priced Category 4 property will typically provide more value than redeeming it at a low-cost Category 1 hotel.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"How_To_Achieve_World_of_Hyatt_Elite_Status\">How To Achieve World of Hyatt Elite Status<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>World of Hyatt offers three elite status tiers:<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"\/hotels\/world-of-hyatt\/hyatt-globalist\/\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-582\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-582 tablepress-responsive\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1 odd\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\">Membership Tier<\/th><th class=\"column-2\">Nights<\/th><th class=\"column-3\">Base Points<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2 even\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Member<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">-<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">-<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3 odd\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/hotels\/world-of-hyatt\/hyatt-discoverist\/\">Discoverist<\/a><\/td><td class=\"column-2\">10<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">25,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4 even\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/hotels\/world-of-hyatt\/hyatt-explorist\/\">Explorist<\/a><\/td><td class=\"column-2\">30<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">50,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-5 odd\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/awardwallet.com\/hotels\/world-of-hyatt\/hyatt-globalist\/\">Globalist<\/a><\/td><td class=\"column-2\">60<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">100,000<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-6 even\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Lifetime Globalist<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">-<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">1,000,000 Lifetime Base Points<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n<p>Members can qualify for elite status based on either qualifying nights or base points earned in a calendar year.

For many travelers, that growth only strengthens the long-term appeal of the World of Hyatt program.<\/p>\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-wrap wp-faq-schema-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span id=\"FAQ\">FAQ<\/span><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span id=\"Do_World_of_Hyatt_points_expire\">Do World of Hyatt points expire?<\/span><\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Yes.
