Suite upgrade for 8 nights stay with (1)cert
I have upcoming consecutive 8 nights stay and I want to use Tier upgrade cert.
I want to know if I can upgrade only 7 nights (1 night standard room + 7 nights suite in one reservation) in one 8 nights reservation?
This is my situation,
・8 consecutive nights, total rate is $1900, but 2 separate reservations, total rate goes up to $2340, that's why I don't want to split into two reservations.
・Also, I don't wanto burn additional cert just for late arrival one night.
Japanese local concierge is not helpful and alway just saying "NO"
, so I want to know if this is technically possible in Hyatt system or not.

If you use one TSU, the hotel may accommodate you and upgrade you for the 1 night due to your status. But it's up to the hotel to do so.
I don't believe the Hyatt system will allow you to break your reservation into 2 parts and only apply one TSU to it.
You might want to call customer service and ask why the rate is different when splitting it. However, they may tell you that one of the nights is only available at a higher rate.

For one reservation the answer is going to be no.... and even if you split it in 2 reservations it could be denied under the new WOH rules. So you could start with one res for 7 nights and aplly the TSU and then book another night later. The property can still make you change rooms though, although most won't.
Simply accept that 8 nights on one TSU is one night too much, no need for the angry face.

Can anyone explain exactly how stay credits work? I just completed a stay from May 27-29th as shown in my original booked email but "Past Activity" shows 26-28. It's actually shifted 1 day earlier for ALL my stays at any property.
In this context it doesn't matter but I do have an upcoming stay that ends on Jan 1 2018 and I need to know since it'll affect requal.

From what I understand though, is you can call WOH and get the nights credited to the "old" year, too. they seem to be flexible (at least under GP, not sure about WOH though)

If you're traveling with someone, then check out on Dec 31 and have the other person check in for the night.
Unfotunately, that's what I've had to do to get credit for the current promotion.

You will have a single stay of 7 nights and the other person will have a single stay of 1 night. You'll lose 1 night, but it's better than losing all 8.

What is ridiculous is that I had to explain to a hotel why I wanted to do it that way. In the past, check in date is what counted and a quick phone call would get it resolved if it didn't post as qualifying.
