Japan To Go Campaign Experience
I am wondering if any of you have experience using To Go Travel Campaign on chain hotel like Hyatt/Marriott/Ihg/Hilton?
I read from another post that for Marriott and IHG, we need to go to StayNavi to enter reservation to generate the discount. Would be interested to learn about Hyatt and Hilton.
Or any experience on using travel to go campaign (ryokan/Airbnb/local hotels) would be great. I am trying to learn to use this discount while it lasts.
Stay Navi is somewhat confusing so any pointer is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

It's "Go To Travel" not " To Go".
It is being suspended.
It may sound like Engrish, but I've heard that the government used it intentionally, for the Japanese general public to understand the meaning easily.

It was/is a domestic tourism campaign, where you would get about 30% off most hotel stays, tours, and maybe a few other things when booked and paid through a travel agent (including online). You needed to be a resident of Japan and traveling outside your home prefecture; I don't know how strict it was but of course they do check your ID at hotels when you check in.
It started last summer, was suspended for the New Year holidays, and then the suspension extended into February, and now until March 7th. It's unclear if it will resume, whether by March, later in the year, or never. But it will almost certainly be finished by the time international tourism comes back.
