Hyatt is not absorbing SLH properties into Hyatt. Its just a limited business partnership, meaning that Hyatt benefits and status are not considered at SLH. Booking SLH through Hyatt just gives you the ability to earn points and nights, and you get the same benefits (regardless of Hyatt status) which is just early checkin, late checkout, breakfast, one category upgrade.

I guess I used the wrong adjective, but yes, I am looking at earning Hyatt points for staying at SLH properties, since the SLH program itself is quite weak.

It doesn't seem like it makes sense for OP to chase status anywhere and can spend enough on own to get the suites and lounge access one gets

And status benefits is meant for you not your guests visiting from out of town.
This seems to be the major feedback that I'm getting. I guess I'll crunch some numbers and see, just seems like I could be doing more with my spend.

If you're not happy with the Hyatts in those two countries, I would strongly suggest you not bother with trying to get Hyatt status. You'll be in for a lot of disappointment elsewhere.
