anyone knows if hyatt or HR may charge the full amt after booking a refundable stay or only a partial deposit amt?

DCBob

So Grand Hyatt and Andaz hotels do NOT count?

austin_modern

It specifically says Hyatt Regency.

DCBob

I know that. But that does not necessarily mean that the word "Regency" must appear in the title, so I am really directly this question to the Gold Passport Concierge or another Hyatt company representative. Educated guesses are not always correct.

austin_modern

Its not an "educated guess." It very specifically mentions "hyatt regency branded property" and like terms many times.

What if I stay at a Courtyard by Marriott? Will that count?

austin_modern

I think thats a question best left for the Hyatt CEO to answer along with secondary confirmation from the King of Visa.

Could you clarify if resort fees or other fees, service charges, parking or other such charges to the Hyatt Regency room will count?
Further, do all Hyatt Regencies, including these outside the US, use "Visa’s proprietary network (VisaNet)"? If not, how can we tell?

Thank you.

austin_modern

It says stateside hyatts only.

"$500 or more at a Hyatt Regency branded property located in the United States"

pWei

Thanks for catching that. It would be nice to have clarity on fees and taxes, which I suspect would be ok, but oh well.

Priceless!

serpens

Same here, continuing. Anyone else? Any ideas?

mnredfox

So I assume regular Hyatt's don't count? (eg Hyatt Olive 8 in Seattle)?

DCBob

I asked a similar question and FlyerTalk members said the hotel must be branded as a Hyatt Regency and implied it was a dumb question. The only dumb question is one not asked. But the terms literally say it must be a Hyatt Regency, so a plain Hyatt without Regency in the title probably won't qualify. Maybe the Hyatt Concierge will clarify.

.... Abe Lincoln quickly adjusted that quotation after spending 15 mins reading a comment section on the internet.
