Good summary. I suppose the stand-alone "Hyatt" flag is transitional. I used to frequent two former members -- Hyatt Dulles and Hyatt Fair Lakes -- that are now Regencies, and one very nice former Regency -- Paris Madeleine -- that is now just Hyatt. I don't understand the latter move; it seemed fine as a Regency (though I suppose had no Regency Club? -- is that a requirement?). Let's hope this brand sticks around long enough to get me a Brand Explorer tick.
