I am thinking about going to Manhattan in a few weeks. I have SPG and HH points with Gold status in both of them. I also have an amex platinum card as well as a JP Morgan Reserve card.
What is the cheapest way for me to stay in one of the fancier hotels (ST Regis, etc....)?

Thank you

JPM Reserve and you're looking to save a few bucks on one of the fancy hotels?

ST Regis with Marriott points is a good deal @ 60k a night.

As @EJB said, St. Regis with Marriott/SPG points is good .

Transfer 30K points to Hyatt and stay at the PH.

That would be from UR points? Do you know how long it takes to transfer?

Thank you

Yes instant.

Service is a little subpar but I consider the PH to be the nicest hotel in NYC.

I hope you mean points hotel because it’s definitely not the nicest hotel in the city

I beg to differ

Thank you. Quick question. With my current luxury credit cards (amex plat, JP Morgran Reserve), do any of them give me any status with Hyatt? If not is there a benefit of transferring more points in to get the elite status for this stay? I would be doing two days so already 60K points.

Thank you
