I heard their programme is the closest to the old SPG. Marriott lacks promotions and once I hit 50 this year to get the 5 SNAs (with the 25-night credit), I'll stop staying.
I’m also going to pursue Hyatt status. The beauty of leisure travel is you can choose where you want to go, so a smaller footprint is of less consequence. I planned many of my trips pre-merger based on where the aspirational SPG properties were located. No reason not to do the same with Hyatt.
