Just booked 3 midweek nights at the end of March. Rooms were $21.75 pre resort fee. I hope someone can verify that resort fees are removed for globalists before then. We are Staying at NYNY, but getting breakfast at HHAGG for my family along with the extra points would be awesome.

Am I reading this correctly that for everyone, including globalists, they are charging the rate that includes the resort fee (even though globalists do not pay resort fees, and the fee would presumably be taken off the bill later)?
If so, I'm not fond of that because it puts globalists at their mercy to get the resort fee off of the bill? Is there a way to make a reservation - on the Hyatt website - that wouldn't have the proposed resort fee tagged on?

Not just MGM, resort/destination fee will show on pretty much any Hyatt reservation, regardless of Globalist status.

I think this is the least inclusive resort fee I have ever come across with Hyatt. Guess that explains the $20ish weeknight rates available here. Glad Globalists are exempt!

looks like I can get a feral cat as a pet no extra charge 😂👍
this reminds me of the property at lax before it became a Hyatt Regency
my only concern is that hash house a go go is open every day of my stay
If it is closed I wouldnt go there.No cat food for me

If this is indeed how benefits will work here, you better get it while it lasts, which will assurdly be a short time. Add the "I'll drive over with my entire family every day for a 20 dollar free breakfast at hash house" crowd to the inevitable scum bag attention whore blog o sphere, and it will disappear soon I'm sure. This is why (if correct with regards to benefits) we can't have nice things, because everyone instantly tries to figure out a way to smash and exploit it to absurd levels.

It is a particularly rediculous resort fee. They aren't even pretending it covers anything. Wifi? Any World of Hyatt member gets it free. Local Calls? Who the heck uses a hotel phone for anything other than calling within the hotel? Access to the fitness center? Well, thats the only one that makes even a tiny bit of sense but $40 a day...that better be the most amazing fitness center ever....
