I have received complimentary upgrades to suites on both revenue and reward stays. And yes, these are (complimentary) upgrades without using the Diamond suite upgrade certificates.

Based on the master threads for the properties, as well as my experience, I would add the Hyatt Regency Chicago and the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay to the list of hotels that routinely upgrade Diamonds to at least junior suites, when available. My experience also supports the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place and Hyatt Regency Orange County.

Ok - people - I've just deleted quite a few posts that were not contributory to the subject and were basically personal attacks.

KNOCK IT OFF!!!! - and this goes for other threads also.

Sorry for hijacking the thread. I am currently trial Diamond valid until Nov, 2010 with 4 diamond suite upgrade certificate expire 2/2011. Does anyone know if I can use those certificate after Nov, 2010 but before 2/2011 if I drop from Diamond?

For mine, the GH Singapore upgrades on awards which I have gotten on two separate occasions. Both Hyatt Regencys in Chicago did it on paid stays, and both were around ~$80 rates.

That's great to hear. Thank you both very much! Currently trial Platinum, have 13 stays planned in the next couple months, 2 more to go before getting Diamond. Can't wait!

I also have on 2 separate award stays - however, this may have changed since the reopening of the 2nd GC in the back tower.

I have been upgraded 3 times at HR Albuquerque. This week I was upgraded to Presidential Suite. Very nice! HR Scottsdale/Gainey Ranch also does upgrades.

Got upgraded to a full suite at HR Century Plaza on the penthouse level (19) the other day on a AAA rate. Past stays have been regular rooms on FFN redemptions, so it was an unexpected surprise to get a suite on a paid rate. Comp Equinox fitness & spa access ($20 for non-dia's) is a definite perk^.

Past suite upgrades w/o use of confirmable suite upgrades have occurred at Grand Champions in Indian Wells and regularly at HR Orange County. I see others regularly geting suite upgrades at HR Mission Bay, but I've yet to experience one in over 5 stays:confused:

The b'fast was complimentary as a Diamond member.

Apparently this property is starting to upgrade more diamond customers. The suites are pretty cool.

To those who haven't had the good fortune, don't be a hater, just keep trying.

This is not always true. I have been upgraded before check-in to a suite before without using a certificate.

I'll offer a counterpoint to the Grand Champions Indian Wells. I was given a golf course view on the third (non-RC) floor. Check in agent acted it was great upgrade. Hotel didn't seem crowded but the self-parking was full so valet was comped for the weekend.
