Hyatt Private Sale
If you’re looking to stay at a Hyatt between April 1st and May 31st, 2022 it would be worth booking in the next week to save up to 25% off the standard rate. It’s pretty straight forward, you just put PRIVATE SALE in the special code rate on the main Hyatt booking page. The discount is applied to the standard rate for stays in The Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia-Pacific Hotels, and Southwest Asia hotels. Additionally, properties outside of the Americas are offering food and beverage credits in addition to the discount – check the details, but its a pretty great deal if you’ll be traveling during April and May paying cash.
Details Americas:
- Must book between March 15th and March 22nd
- Must Stay between April 1st, 2022 and May 31st 2022
- SPECIAL OFFER CODE – PRIVATE
- Discount applied to Standard Rate
- Offer not valid at Hyatt Residence Club, Miraval, MGM, UrCove, Small Luxury Hotels of the World locations and at locations in the AMR Collection brands.
- 72 hour cancellation window
A mattress run opportunity?
Here’s a look at the Hyatt Place Columbus with rates dropping to $67 with the Private Sale.
Don’t forget that Hyatt has a 2022 promo
- Earn 2022 points for every 2 nights
- capped at 20 nights
On a 20 night stay, you’d get 20 Elite nights + 20,220 World of Hyatt points for $1340. At 1.8c per point, or $363 back. If you were Globalist, you’d also earn points at 6.5 per dollar or 8710, valued at $156 ( base members would earn 6500 ). Backing out the points at $520 you’d be spending $820 for 20 nights – or $41 a night… if you’re needing extra nights to hit status again in 2022 – this wouldn’t be the worst time if you had a cheap Hyatt nearby.
