[QUOTE=nologic]I am not sure what "games" you are talking about, but they are very strict about their policies and they are very good at upselling; the last time I was there (last month), the front desk people were going thru a training course in "upselling" during their non-duty hours -- so they take upselling seriously.

here's an example of a "game" - i was offered a GC room or a suite on a lower floor, i chose the GC, but after seeing the room i called down and asked if i could have a suite. they told me they had no more suites available - they sold all of them within the 5 minutes it took me to go up to the room, so i called hyatt reservations in USA and booked a suite and then had a conversation with the director of rooms. their defense was that the reservations do not have access to the actual room inventory at the hotel.
