Love it - Thompson, in Chicago.
Fun fact - when I abandoned Marriott in 2019 and moved to Hyatt, I stayed in six different Hyatt brands on my first six stays. Took me four months to get to 10
Pro tip - Chicago is a jackpot for racking up brands easily & fairly cheaply

If I recall correctly, I think it was a pure "Hyatt" - possibly Hyatt Palm Springs.
I have 10 brands, will be difficult to get another 5.

Mine was the plain-Jane "Hyatt" near Chicago (Oak Brook? Something about a McDonald's? Had an awesome room there IIRC)
I don't recall where I picked up the Destination and Joie de Vivre but neither of those hotels was actually branded as such when I stayed, so those came as surprises. I also stayed at the HRC in Sedona but that didn't get credited as HRC for some reason, who knows.
Been sitting at 12 since 2019 when Destination and JDV came on board. Will probably pick up Zilara, Miraval, and Thompson at some point.

10th was one of the Two Roads brands, Destination I think is the one in Tempe, AZ.
Now on 13 brands, waiting for Shanghai to reopen - to pick up UrCove But who knows if it will ever be worth my while to do an all-inclusive or HRC...

I wish they would make this an annual thing. Something like 10k points for 5 brand in a year, 25 for 10. Just not enough incentive for me to really kill myself to try and get 3 more to hit 15, since the remaining ones are mostly out of my reach/interest.

Caption was announced late 2019. I don't think any of the properties are live but I recall discussion of Memphis, DC, and Chicago. Tiny rooms for millennials, perhaps to compete with Canopy and Moxy? Too much to keep track of tbh.

Remember hearing about it, but the point was, I don't even see it listed as a "tile" when logged in the app or online
