~57 paid nights in 2014.

As another poster pointed out, can anyone confirm Mlife stays count towards this???
I had a similiar offer last year and had 3 nights at ARIA that counted. I had booked the ARIA through the hyatt website, so I am not sure if that made a difference or not.

The Elite Tier Offer is not a Diamond challenge, nor is it open to the public. Elite Tier Offer

There is no good reason for any confusion.

It's in the FAQ.


This promotion is valid for all eligible stays/eligible nights at Hyatt Hotels & Resorts. In addition, all M life Eligible Nights at participating M life resorts will be counted toward this promotion. An M life Eligible Night is any night of an M life Eligible Stay (i) where payment is made directly to a participating MGM Resorts International property, (ii) any stay booked through hyatt.com, or (iii) through a Hyatt Worldwide Reservation Center, excluding free night awards. See complete terms and conditions on goldpassport.com for a list of participating M life hotels.

Anyhow, if the promos suck so hard... and you're constantly bent about them... just give up your diamond status and start staying at marriott, SPG, or elsewhere and see how that goes. I've heard Red Roof Inn has some pretty awesome 5* properties.
I don't know...maybe because 60/25, 45/20, 30/15 is worse than 50/20, 30/15, 15/10, 5/5 per night, total and just overall? I stay EVEN MORE and get LESS points per night? The ONLY way it is in any way better, is if you do 25 nights and you get a marginal benefit of an extra 10k. Otherwise, you get less per night, you have MUCH higher thresholds to get ANYTHING, and get less even at the high level of 20 nights.

Also, I am not saying I am giving up my status or even not going to stay with Hyatt. My irritation is simply the nonsensical endless marketing BS hype, which was extra heavy with this promo about "one of our best ever" blah blah blah. I am just sick of the nonsense. Just put out the sad promos already and be done with it. Enough unjustified hype. This thing is equal to or worse than the last promo, but they did not make a big deal over the last one. I love how everyone wants to paint the people who are pointing out the reality behind simple math, which can't really be argued as if they are complaining endlessly without cause. Its just a fact...this promo at this level, is inferior to or in the case of the 50/20 offer, identical to the last one. That's it. Nothing more nothing less.

10 stays, 20,000 points. I'm Diamond with 14 stays/16 nights last year (completed Diamond trial).

This isn't too bad, I suppose. I already have 8 nights booked through April 30th so will only have to mattress run/add 2 more.

Thanks. I missed the FAQ and was only looking at the T&C.

I like it and wish I could hit the first level, but I just don't stay at hotels that much.
Wow, I would like to have that promo (I also had just 1 stay in 2014). Do you have a more frequent stay history in the past with Hyatt?

You're welcome to your opinion, but a free night at a Category 5 Hyatt is extremely desirable to me.

1x4 night stay in Dec 2014 @ Cat 3 property. Pricematch yielded $57 pn all in.

Got this:

Stay Earn Total Points Earned
5 Nights + 5,000 Points = 5,000
10 Nights + 10,000 Points = 15,000
15 Nights + 15,000 Points = 30,000
20 Nights + 20,000 Points = 50,000

Planning 10 nights in Feb using P+C at Cat 1 properties and 10% off Hyatt GC.

TVM HGP.

The output is fine, but the input to earn it? Perhaps okay by today's standard, but historically that's basically what we used to get as G bonuses without any special hyped promo at many properties.

Code:
15 Nights 	+ 30,000 Points 	= 30,000
20 Nights 	+ 15,000 Points 	= 45,000
25 Nights 	+ 20,000 Points 	= 65,000
One three-night stay last year as Platinum. Have 12 nights booked within the promo period but have no other travel plans, and no Hyatts nearby...

Registration worked fine btw.

Wow. Absolutely terrible.

5000 points for 2 stays. Terms say max earnings 5000 points with this promo.

I'll be completing this next week since I already have two stays planned.

I look at it as 10k extra points Im going to get for the stays I have planned, since I'll surpass 20 nights in this stretch, so to me those are "better" than the last promo.

I guess I'm just not as butthurt as some.

I got the 30/45/65 offer. Given I already have 12 nights booked for this time period anyway, and I have a $69/night ($77 with tax) Hyatt Place near me. So, is $231 worth a free night at the Park Hyatt New York? Yes, yes it is.

But, is 15,000 points worth $385? Or another 35,000 worth $770? I am thinking no...
