The problem is it’s hard to beat Marriott prices between BRGs and discounted gift cards.
I'm not seeing raving reviews for the Hyatt in the Hyatt forum - and I'm not seeing regular suite upgrades. I'm not seeing rave reviews for the Hilton Hawaiian Village either - or comped upgrades to suites....And Kelly Sanders doesn't directly manage any the Highgate properties on Oahu and I'm not seeing comped upgrades at those properties on TA.
Hotel Occupancy in November on Oahu was 53.4% - expect a small bump for New Years - and I'd expect January to be as dismal - the hotels are on life support - and only have a fraction of the staff they had before.
I don't think people will see regular suite upgrades at any of the Oahu properties for any program until occupancy goes way way way up and they start overselling regular rooms and upgrade the elites.
