Staying at the Park Hyatt Maldives will require 30,000 points per night rather than 25,000
On January 22, Hyatt’s hotel category changes will go into effect. Those of you who have an upcoming Hyatt stay might want to check the list and consider booking hotels now, before the point requirements increase. Some of the 22 hotels moving up in category will increase by as much as 25%, which is a pretty substantial amount. On the other hand, more than twice the number of hotels (48 to be exact) are moving down in category. If you’ve booked a hotel that is moving down in category, you can request a refund for the difference. The cut-off time for booking under the old redemption levels is 12:01 AM (CST) on January 22, 2015.
