Called Hyatt to book a room here for Mother's Day weekend. Told the agent that I would book it as long as they had a DSU available. After several minutes in gold with the two, she came back to tell me she is still working on it. Then a supervisor came in and said this property does not participate in the DSU program...is this right?

My friend is visiting Chicago in July and he is an Explorist and planning to stay at PH. I wonder what benefits he will get during his stay and how can he maximize the benefits he will get as an Explorist?
As the hotel does not have a club lounge, can he still use the upgrade voucher to the lounge to have free breakfast there daily?

Taking my lady for her first trip ever to Chicago over 4th July weekend, and was looking to burn out points for it, so was aiming SPG, Hyatt, IHG. The higher end stuff (IC, Park) were unavail, so had booked the Gwen, when just this morning the Park came open for points. I've stayed in the Park in Manhattan, but never this one.
A good choice for her first time to see the City?
Any thoughts on what to expect here as a Globalist?

Re: suites... As long as Park suites are available those should be offered to Globalists. Exec and up are not standard suites.
Just stayed there over Memorial Day and had a very good stay. Breakfast was excellent (and complimentary). As long as there are suites available, you should be offered one. That may depend on the agent checking you in, though. Overall, a very nice hotel by US standards, in my opinion.

Anyone have any experience with the award night free globalist parking at this property? I'm guessing it's valet? DSU upgrade still a Park Suite? Thanks in advance.

In regards to the TSU suite, apparently it HAS to be the Grand Executive Suite. The Park Executive Suite is the same size, but is NOT available for TSU use. In my case, the Park is available but the Grand is not so I’m SOL. Regular king bed it is and hope for an upgrade.

On my previous visit to Chicago (August-17) I stayed at the Hyatt Centric Magnificent Mile, which I thought was good value for money. On my current visit I selected the Park Hyatt. Its a bit average to say the least but its in an excellent location. NoMi was busy and buzzy at lunchtime on Sunday and the bar was good for a pre-dinner cocktail before heading out to eat; no problem with either the food or the service in NoMi. Doc Copper.
