Hyatt announced their new promotion for the early part of 2014. Â Called Endless Possibilities, the promotion allows you to earn either free nights or bonus points. Â Lets break it down.
Bonus Points
Nights Stayed During Promotion | Points Earned For This Tier | Total Points Earned For Promotion |
5 | +5,000 | 5,000 |
10 | +10,000 | 15,000 |
15 | +15,000 | 30,000 |
20 | +20,000 | 50,000 |
Free Nights
You can earn a free night at any Category 1-4 Hyatt for every five nights you stay. Â The maximum number of free nights is 4 and these free nights must be redeemed by July 31, 2014.
Analysis:
On the low end (5 or 10 total stays), this promotion definitely favors the free nights. Â Considering a category 4 hotel is 15,000 points, you are seemingly coming out ahead. Â With that said, the free night expires pretty quickly so that is something to keep in mind and the best value comes with staying at a category 4 hotel.
If you are going to stay 15 nights then the math is very similar for both offers. Â You would receive three free nights in lieu of 30,000 points. Â Ideally you would be able to redeem those at a category 4 hotel, but with the quick expiration I would probably take the points.
At 20 nights there is no doubt that the points are a better deal. Â You can get 2 nights at a category 6 hotel which could easily cost over $1,000.
The promotion runs from January 15, 2014 through April 30, 2014. Â For a full list of the terms and conditions and to register for the promotion click here.
