I don't think that makes a difference. I have always received full Globalist benefits for up to 3 rooms in my name. But to be 100% sure, it would certainly not harm to do a GoH booking for the 2nd room.
you can charge any incidentals to the room in your name, and you will receive points.

It's a property specific policy whether or not they extend globalist benefit to additional rooms booked by the globalist, but as 59Impala says, the most common policy is to do so for up to three rooms. And as he says, you'll get more points on incidentals if you book both directly in your name. I always call the hotel to verify -- most front desk associates readily know the answer to this question.

The only other consideration I can think of is that a property might balk to bump both rooms up to suites on arrival if they're both in your name. However, with the GoH, your name isn't tied to the reservation so the checkin agents would see it as two distinct bookings. Really depends on property though -- properties I frequent gladly give me multiple suites for multiple rooms in my name if they're available.

Thanks for the prompt replies and great information. If I made the GOH in my spouse's name, would he earn a nightly credit that could be used on his Brand Explorers promotion?

ClarkGriswold

Yes. It's just like any other reservation in their name, except WoH has added a GoH annotation in the notes telling property to extend benefits.

Great, thanks.

Does anyone know what the new Hyatt Place San Francisco/Downtown will be categorized as. This would be a great property for some baseball next summer!

I asked this exact same question on the "new properties" thread, but no one knew (or at least no one cared to answer).

I don't understand how they are calling Mission Bay "downtown", but, yes, it is a great location for the baseball stadium.

I have a pretty stupid question..
If I got discoverist status from the credit card (the old one), how many nights would I need to achieve explorist?
Is it 20 or 30?

Thank you

What is the definition of a qualified stay for a WOH member regarding the breakfast at Hyatt Place's?

VegasGambler

I know that this has been discussed here recently, but I can't find it.

I'm globalist and want to book a "member advance rate". The hotel has a destination fee, which I should not have to pay. But, the website and app do not recognize this, and always include the fee. That's fine when I'm just leaving a deposit, but, in this case, the full amount is billed to my credit card now... how do I get the fee refunded?

For WoH elite members, it says there is an exclusive reservation line. What is this line?

I'd contact front desk and explain that I'm not happy with the room (there's no real reason to explain why ) and ask if they can put me into another room. If pressed, mention that you're accustomed to looking out a window and seeing things such as the sky, and in the current room you are only able to see a tree. You can also mention that you know this is NOT a BIG deal, but hey, it's a deal, and therefore you're asking if they can please possibly do any thing about it

When you consider all the outcomes, this is as close to a no-lose proposition as you'll ever find.

A rate that earns points. I.e. not priceline, hotels.com, travel industry rate, distressed passenger rate, etc.
