Suggestions for using free nights ay Hyatt

[Dan]

Seems like a pretty straightforward equation.

Theres no value in paying for your nights? For example you earn 3x per dollar at Hyatt. Thats gotta count for something.

[Dan]

Once you factor that also need to factor the tax % on the paid portion versus whole rate, that both of those pay resort fees vs none on straight points, that both are eligible for suite upgrades, etc/

Say so in the first place and you'll get a faster answer
PH Aviara and HR Huntington Beach.

Thanx Dan..heard aviara is a little overrated ... Huntington Beach looks amazing... Any way to use someone's upgrades on my 2 hyatt card stays or will those only work on paid stays?

I researched all the Hyatts that are in the countries on my itinerary. Would love opinions on where to stay with my 4 free nights. I know people here love the Park Hyatt Paris (and could be I will too) but a friend did stay there and said it was really small (I guess like all hotels in Paris). I listed how many nights I'll be in each city including whether I'll be there for Shabbos.

Park Hyatt
Paris (5 nights incl. Shabbos)
Zurich (1 night)

Andaz
London (4 nights incl. Shabbos)
Amsterdam (2 nights)

Hyatt
Paris x2 (5 nights incl. Shabbos)

Hyatt Regency
London (4 nights incl. Shabbos)
Paris x2 (5 nights incl. Shabbos)

Hyatt Place
Amsterdam (2 nights)

What other points do you have? Best if we know all your options.

True. Was going to post individually in each hotel's thread, but I'll just bring it over to my planning thread.

If I use a free night and then switch to award booking w/ points for the other night, would they make me checkout and then back in? ANyone have any experience with that? TIA

For my stay, I have 2 nights from my cc and 2 nights from my wife's cc and then 1 night with points. On the phone they combined them all and said we won't need to checkin/out.

Is it worth it to "waste" my 2 free cc nights on the Andaz W Hollywood, or is it more worthwhile to sell it?
