Two January nights with every perk, after some nudging
- Breakfast
- $100 credit
- Upgraded
- $250 credit posted
Their take: A great stay they would happily repeat, and every listed benefit arrived in the end, though a few took some nudging. They add that with top-tier Hyatt status they would have simply booked direct.
Details
- Paid
- $1,861.33 for 2 nights ($816+/night), covered with 80,566 points and $250.01 in cash; direct was $789/night at the member rate or 70,000 points
- Before arrival
- The $250 Edit credit posted the same day as the charge; a call to the hotel linked the booking to World of Hyatt, and staff asked for an arrival time so they could request early check-in
- Check-in
- Arrived at 1:30pm and the room was ready at 2:26pm; the desk briefly missed the Edit booking, then handed over an envelope with the benefits
- Upgrade
- Upgraded to a city view king room, spacious and looking out on Carnegie Hall
- Welcome
- Missing until they called on day two; after first being told it wasn't included, a red wine, a chocolate bonbon and still and sparkling Evian arrived
- Breakfast
- Served at the 57th Street restaurant; their coffees were billed as not included, but the charge was removed at checkout without them asking
- $100 credit

- At checkout
- The only charge on the final bill was the dinner amount above the $100 credit, with no resort fee added
