Fortunately, when I finally reached the front desk manager, he was able to move me to their top category room, the Sherlock suite. There is only one of these and it is 433 sq ft.This is the one room in this hotel that I would recommend to anyone from the luxury hotel forum. It's still small for a suite, but it is (in the words of Mark Twain) the only room in the entire hotel that you can "...swing a cat in, without doing damage to the cat."
That's really too bad because the service, furnishings, and amenities at the hotel are at the luxury hotel level.
I was looking at this hotel yesterday. The photos on Hyatt’s website look great, but I always look for travellers’ videos on YouTube of exact room types.
LoyaltyLobby did a room tour and it looked tiny, just like you describe. The suite also appeared to be on street level wity cars parked by the window
