- Hyatt appears to have updated its systems to display calendar links for nearly all properties. (Immediately after rollout, coverage was notably incomplete.) If for some reason the property you're interested in does not have a points calendar link, use a URL of the form https://www.hyatt.com/explore-hotels/rate-calendar?spiritCode=XYZZY, where XYZZY is the hotel's five-letter code. (Codes are shown in the URL for the Hyatt property listing; for example, the Tokyo Andaz is "tyoaz.") Once in the calendar, you can navigate to view additional months. h/t to Neric for flagging this shortcut.

Vastly better. Peak/off-peak is set by corporate not by individual hotels, long in advance. Peak/off-peak rates are set for multiple hotels in an area at once, not one by one. Redemption values are still frequently very, very good, much better than the borne chains.

What is the hugest CC sign on bonus they offer - I see 60k now?

The best value is getting signup bonuses with Chase cards, and having a Sapphire preferred or reserve that allows 1:1 transfer to Hyatt.

Sometimes the disconnect between categorization as peak, off peak and standard is way off from what the cash rates are like. For example, very recently and repeatedly used 5,000 points for Cat 1 room night while the hotel was asking for over the equivalent of c. $1600 (USD) for the night. That cash rate is higher than any cash rate I had seen previously at any (non-SLH) Hyatt hotels in the country when standard rooms were available for sale; and the the points+cash rate was also something crazy with the equivalent of a c. $900 cash component.
Since Hyatt sets the peak/off peak calendar for using points and award night reimbursement works as it does, I wouldn’t be surprised if maybe some creative property management types were to play games with the regular paid/cash rates and award availability in order to try to get Hyatt to do things differently for them in the future.

Even if someone was starting from scratch that could easily just buy the 5k points from Hyatt to use making the cash rate irrelevant.
I’m sure Hyatt coughed up a pretty penny to reimburse the hotel though for your stays.

My understanding of the process is that Hyatt does a rate study for the previous 12 months at the property and uses that to set the reimbursement rates, on a night by night basis. That's how they can publish a peak/off peak calendar. Presumably there's some mechanism for truing up should the hotel hit full occupancy - if that's 100% of actual ADR or 100% of predicted ADR is unknown.
I don't think a property manager has a direct incentive to be in a certain category or have a certain amount of peak nights, instead what they want is ADR to be as high as possible while only using award stays to fill spoilage (rooms that would otherwise sit empty) and push you towards a sellout. It's obviously a lot better when that's happening on a $1600 rate.

Well most people don’t book for a full 7 nights. I would also say it’s pretty rare to find a full month of Off Peak at a a property even with 1 Peak night added in a week…

Apologies if this is the wrong thread!
Any thoughts as to why neither of the Hyatts in central Amsterdam (Regency and Andaz) are taking points bookings in early July 2024? The points calendar at both properties shows "standard" on the specific dates I hope to be there, but there's no "Pay My Way" option (and yes, I'm checking the Member Rate while logged in) for either property when I start the booking process.
