- 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.

I think we're probably both right and just have different stay patterns. You earn 6 total points per $ for Marriott stays on Marriott card and 4 total points per dollar for Hyatt stays on Hyatt card. So I earn 10.5 points per dollar on hotel stays with Hyatt (4 from CC, 6.5 from globalist status) and 23.5 on hotel stays with Marriott (6 from CC and 17.5 from titanium status). I also had the 25K bonus for $25K spend on my SPG amex, so I was earning 3 Marriott points per $ all last year on non-bonus spend vs. 1x Hyatt points on non-bonus spend.
Plus there are a ton of high-end Bonvoy resorts that still offer outsized value to me that is difficult to replicate with Hyatt. I'm worried this might change with Marriott now allowing capacity restrictions at legacy SPG properties, so those crazy redemptions may be difficult to grab going forward, but I've had no issues booking $1000+/night rooms for 65-80K points/night at St. Regis Deer Valley, Bal Harbour, Ritz Grand Cayman, St. Regis Aspen, Phoenician Residences, and St. Regis New York during peak travel times.
I usually find myself using Hyatt points for 1-2 night stays in major US cities or for lower-end properties since Hyatt offers more consistent value and using Marriott points for longer vacations and foreign travel because of the higher number of aspirational properties. I've never calculated it out exactly, but I would say my cents per point on Marriott redemptions is only slightly lower than on Hyatt redemptions despite the roughly double earning rates. Those averages are skewed by some ridiculously priced ski hotels and holiday stays at high-end resorts, but I have a pretty good argument that my return with Marriott is higher than with Hyatt, even though both programs certainly have their strengths and Marriott is doing it's best to slowly chip away at many of its former strengths.

2 considerations I had with this are from my POV/ travel patterns-
Missing in the H vs M award stay comparisons is the huge additional savings in having the resort fee & parking waived, along with free breakfast in the restaurant for Hyatts with no club. At the Park hyatt Beaver creek, that is close to $200 day (not paying tax on resort fee/parking / breakfast factored as well).
if you use the Chase Sapphire card, you get 3 points for travel charges, that can convert to 3 Hyatt or 3 Marriott points, no brainer here.

So I was expecting to pay 3,500 points per night on a 6 night stay now I’m paying 8,000 points per night.

Why is this funny?
I urged Marriott to extend the reward nights for another year in the morning. Then in the afternoon, Marriott sent email on the positive changes. So I knew Marriott had to do something. Of course, it had nothing to do with me. But I knew this is coming.... Marriott may have to do another extension.
I just do now think we can go back to normal in a couple of months. This summer can be wasted.

I do not care who the leader is. As long as they make positive changes and benefit us travelers...

The email from Hyatt make it seem like only the peak and off peak postponed. So the category ups and downs are still a go?
Postponing Award Chart Changes:
We are postponing the introduction of Off-Peak and Peak point redemption (originally planned for March 22, 2020) until 2021. This means that free-night redemptions will continue to be at standard rates for the rest of this year.
