I have 2 sign up bonus nights available, I would like to use it. (searching for a thread where Hyatt Hotels are discussed) any great hotel in the NY, NJ, area? would even drive  2-3 hours.

Thanks

it definitely is, but I rather don't want the city. I would much rather go out to a much more quieter neighborhood.

If I'm waiting for a free night to come through, can I book the hotel with cash in the basic room type and cancel when I get my award, expecting the base room to now be available as an award night?

According to a Hyatt phone rep, you can book the basic room with cash, and when the free night posts, have them apply the free night to reservation.

If you're diamond, they let you book it even without points/free night and then once it posts you just call them to apply it.

Doing it the cash way may cause you to have to pay a little bit (even though you'll eventually get a refund).

Wife is diamond- but the certain are coming in on my account.

Why with cash would I have to get a refund? The hotels usually allow a booking with nothing down until a few nights before the stay no( or whatever the specific hotels policy is)

It depends on the hotel. I was once about to book a cash res and later Convert it but they wanted two nights upfront. Every hotels policy is different.

They didn't let me do that.

Why? Your card isn't charged at the time of booking.

I've done it three times already. Maybe I need to teach you how to be more persuasive.  :P

For some hotels, they charge you for 1 or 2 nights at time of booking. Speaking from experience. And no, it wasn't for a locked in reduced rate that isn't cancelable.

Booking a room on 20-03-2016. Anyone have a 1-night certificate available? Willing to pay $200 OBO. I responded to another seller before, but just checking to see if anyone else is offering. Thanks in advance.
