I agree. I'm staying at the Excelsior in Thessaloniki this fall. I priced it thru Hyatt and then directly. It was cheaper to book directly. I suppose being a member of SLH and aligned with Hyatt, I paid it more attention than if not. But still, I'd like comparable prices whether I book on the SLH site or the Hyatt site.
