The Park Hyatt Paris, $300 cash won't get you a room there. It'll probably get you a room at the Radisson Blu. So if i have a choice to spend $300 for a room at the Park Hyatt Paris, or Radisson Blu, I would choose the Park Hyatt.
The Wardof in Rome cost about 85k points a night...about 250-$300 MS cost. But you can book a night on Hotels.com for $250.00 So I would just pay cash for it, or use points from Arrival+ / Venture to erase the charge.
