For San Diego where I spend four hotel nights each week, there are only three full service Hyatts.
The lowest rates I am seeing for the next month are in the $140-$150 range (usually at Islandia).
All the other major chains have multiple properties in both full service and liited service sectors, and I can always get around $110 or less.
I am not trying to turn this into a Hyatt thread as the main topic here is
the concern about top tier members leaving the program due to devaluation
Hilton could have done things a lot better but they have been dysfunctional ever since relocating to the East Coast
The Hyatt Islandia is now the best Hyatt in San Diego and called Hyatt Mission Bay Spa and Marina
The breakfast fantastic in the Red Marlin or highly satisfactory in the club lounge not as good less choices.They are generous with suites and the staff go out of their way for you typically.I eat at the red Marlin frequently for dinner and I never eat in hotels unless typically staying at the property.
Don't forget if you book on stay certificates you can stay for about 120-125 per night regardless of rates.Do one stay on regular revenue so you get stay credit though if u seek it
Any questions I can assist just PM me See Hyatt forum for more info
Cheers
