Was able to get into a junior suite before with FHR base room + Explorist before.

Hi All,
Can anyone share what the bed comfort is like here?
I was planning to stay at Grand Hyatt but no suites can be confirmed for my dates so thought I would buy up here and pay the difference
Like the Grand Beds just trying to avoid firm mattress like the Park Hyatt New York etc The new mattress in the refreshed suites at Andaz 5th Avenue are excellent not too firm or soft just right
Thank you in advance

It's a firmer mattress.

Any recent breakfast experiences for Globalists? Looking at between the PH or GH

Not even close.

GH is club breakfast... club is small and can be overcrowded. I've never been offered the restaurant option before

PH is Michelin starred restaurant or option of room service for Globalists

I can only book PH when it falls to a range that's bookable for my company travel service, but when I do (in extreme off seasons like early January), it's a treat because of how good the breakfast benefit is

There are very few GH that are close to, let alone better than, a PH.

The PH Restaurant, the Blue Duck Tavern, does not have its "Michelin starred" staff working the breakfast shift.

That is quite common for most Michelin level restaurants located in hotels. The Michelin dinner (and occasionally lunch) restaurant actually isn’t the same as the breakfast restaurant for most, even as they might occupy the same space. The same was true for the Prince de Galles Paris hotel when 1* La Scene was located there.

I simply mentioned that in case someone expected a Michelin starred Globalist Breakfast.

Understood. That is not gonna happen. The only place I’ve really enjoyed a Michelin breakfast was at AOC in Los Angeles. It was amazing.

Is the PH Washington DC MUCH better than the Grand Hyatt? Going in November and was able to book both at a very similar rate.....except PH is in a junior suite. Grand Hyatt is an ordinary room. Just wondered if it is worth the extra $30 dollars/night and justifying the cost with work?

I think the biggest difference may be in the PH having 220 rooms vs the GH having almost 900. There can be a different ambience and sense of luxury to that size difference that may or may not matter to you. Choose accordingly.
