I feel even more than that, the service, Diamond breakfast and other hotel amenities such as the pool and fitness area make the points difference more than worth it.

I guess I just wasn't too impressed with the club lounge at the GHS. Not that it wasn't impressive in its views and the spread wasn't bad, but the funky architecture of that hotel puts me off. Somehow there are way too many long hallways and strange angles. I'd imagine it's to maximize external viewing area around trhe central tower, but if you've tried the Chinese restaurant or been to the spa/fitness area, you'll know what I mean. It's somewhat awkward.

By theway, I openly admit I'm nitpicking here. GAS far outdoes any Grand Hyatt in NA as far as I'm concerned.
