Agreed, I often look at Prive, but as a Globalist I rarely can find a way to make the math work, given the vast overlap of benefits and the fact that the rate is based off the standard rate rather than more competitive rates. Many here will say that the Prive "free night offers" (e.g. 3rd or 4th night free) make the math work, but 1) you will not earn the EQN on the free night and that is obviously worth something and 2) given the free night offer is based off the standard rate, it sometimes isn't that much better than more corporate or Leverage rates and I'll also earn EQNs for all nights in that case.

bcosinteno, who keeps the Prive thread up to date has stated a few times that Hyatt is working on making the Prive program more attractive to Globalists, but alas, nothing ever seems to come of that...
