I have an upcoming stay and read the entire thread. I saw some common themes, and thought it would be useful to start a wiki. Please feel free to update or correct anything. I haven't stayed here, so the information is based on the contents of the thread:
- Diamond Suite Upgrades are NOT available at this property.
- Diamond members receive a complimentary full breakfast for up to 4 guests.
- The beds are very firm platform beds. I saw a few posts where a foam pad for the top of the bed was requested.
- Docked cruise ships that may obstruct the view from the Harbour view rooms.
- The hotel is 4 stories.
The concierge desk offers a weekly tour of the Rocks on Saturday.
Link that shows when cruise ships will be docked opposite the hotel:

Recently but I'm sure it's like any other award booking, and not all units made available for awards. I looked three months in advance during winter months and found these rooms available with points and cash.

? Probably wishful thinking for a Hyatt Explorist.Did you actually book this already or is it something you're just planning?
If the latter, I don't think your plan will work, but if you already book it, I'd love to hear more details.

Opera King / Twin - 40-45 sqm (with 1 balcony)
Opera Delue - 75sqm (with 2 balconies)
City Harbour are the same size, but they don't have a direct view of the Opera House (although most can see it).

As for World of Hyatt - What a Joke!
Checked in the other day.
"standard upgrade" (for this property)
No 1K bonus points
No Fruit Bowl / comp amenity
No Welcome Letter

I had one balcony, so it seems my upgrade was to Opera King.

While this is my personal favorite room the hotel nevertheless should have done better by you. I don't understand why the PHS doesn't change branding and management if it doesn't want to participate in Hyatt's loyalty programs. Maybe become a Ritz Carlton or even go independent.
