I’m Giving Away 66,000 Hyatt Gold Passport Points!

by Gary Leff

I highlighted Hyatt’s Winter promotion when it was first announced and then flagged when registration became available.

But it’s worth highlighting again, because at the time I flagged it as the most generous current promo in the market. It’s not the most generous hotel promotion that’s ever been but it’s pretty good and I like it more than other current offerings.

For every 4 nights between February 1 and April 30, members earn additional points and Hyatt Visa also earn an extra 25% bonus on top. Registration required by March 31.

  • 4 nights earns 4000 points (+1000 for Hyatt Visa cardholders)
  • 8 nights earns an additional 8000 points (+2000 for Hyatt Visa cardholders)
  • 12 nights earns an additional 12,000 points (+3000 for Hyatt Visa cardholders)
  • 16 nights earns an additional 20,000 points (+5000 for Hyatt Visa cardholders)

Members staying 16 nights during the three months of the promotion, who also have a Hyatt Visa, will earn 55,000 bonus points in addition to their regular earning.

Register here for the promotion.

Hyatt Gold Passport offered me an opportunity to highlight what they’re doing by giving away 66,000 Gold Passport points to my readers. I’m not taking anything from Gold Passport in this, I’m just giving away the points to you.

The giveaway

  1. First prize: 44,000 Hyatt Gold Passport points. That’s the number of points you can earn through Hyatt’s new promotion (without the bonus points for being a Hyatt Visa cardholder) and is enough for two nights at any Hyatt property in the world.
  2. Second prize: 22,000 Hyatt Gold Passport points. These can be split up however you’d like, it gets you a few nights or at the very high end it gets you a night at any Hyatt in the world

Official Rules:

  • Enter by leaving a comment in this post, name a Hyatt property that you would like to spend your points at!
  • You may enter as many times as you’d like in this official entry thread. However you may not enter more than one time in a row. You have to wait at least until someone else enters in order to enter again. And please don’t name the same Hyatt property more than once.
  • This giveaway opportunity will run through 6pm Eastern time on Friday, February 10th.
  • I will draw the winners at random using random.org, post the results on this blog, and put the winners in touch with Hyatt Gold Passport in order to claim their prize.
  • This is a giveaway, it’s done with Hyatt’s generosity and I’m not taking anything for myself here so hopefully it will be received in the spirit that it’s offered, no technicalities please and no complaints, all decisions on my part are final, any questions just ask.

Good luck!

  4. […] February through April of this year it was progressively more bonus points for more nights. The first four nights would earn 4000 points — so 1000 points per night, like the current promotion, but only needing 4 (rather than 5) to get there. Then incrementally more points — 2000 points per night after hitting the next 4 night milestone. Then 3000 points per night for the 4 night milestone after that, and finally 5000 points per night for the four night milestone representing nights 12 through 16. And the Hyatt Visa bonus was 25% to boot. 16 nights during the three month promotion, with a Hyatt Visa, earned 55,000 bonus points. That was really exceptionally generous for high night members.

  1. Gary,

    Thanks for being my miles and points guru. Love the blog. As far as the Hyatt points, I’d love to use them at the Park Hyatt Tokyo.

  3. Ah… I keep reading about the sublime Parh Hyatt Tokyo. As part of my “preparaton” for a possible visit – I’m watching “Lost in Translation”. Many scenes are filmed inside!

  7. Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi. This or my previous comment so I can meet up with a friend currently serving in Djibouti.

  9. Wow…what a great giveaway! I’d keep it local and take the kids to the Hyatt Chesapeake Bay for spring break again. We did it last year and it was an awesome trip.

  23. Park Hyatt Jeddah – just because it’s a property that no tourist can presently get to since Saudi isn’t issuing visas. That alone makes me want to go.

  63. Park Hyatt Hyderbad (I’m here in Hyderabad right now and they’re opening early 2012, so would love to find exact date.)

  87. Hyatt Hotel Canberra – A Park Hyatt Hotel.

    Why can’t they just call it Park Hyatt Canberra? Ridiculous. Wouldn’t stop me from staying there on a road trip.

  100. The Palacio Duhau in Buenous Aires would be my choice for using the two night. This is my second most favorite Park Hyatt in the world.

  104. You know what, now that I think about it, let’s go back to Paris with the Hyatt Regency Madeleine

  120. Lastly, before I go to work, let’s say the Hyatt Place Atlanta airport North. Because I stayed at the South version, but man I bet the North is so different and better than it would just blow me out of the water 🙂

  127. Park Hyatt Koh Samui – if you can wait until it’s bookable in 2013, I want to compare to your recent Koh Samui trip report!

  157. …and of course, I might be willing to fly back to Paris and use to free nights at my favoirte Hyatt…the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendome

  243. Andaz Maui 🙂 well, I guess not, unless Jeff Z is treating when it opens.

    PHT or Andaz 5th Ave or PH Vendome

    -David

  283. Here we go Gary!

    I have a trip to paris later this year and 22k would make for a redemption at the Park Hyatt Vendome without any remaining points!

  449. Washington DC is where I want to go, and what better place than capital to stay in Park Hyatt.

  522. With all these multiple entries ahead fo me, it’s like being a Starwood Platinum Lite looking for an upgrade.

    Park Hyatt Paris

  573. I travel a lot. Would like to stay close to home and finally check out Hyatt Chesapeake Bay with the family.

  634. Park Hyatt Paris. I could make a quick stop from London to there ( and a few other places in Europe also)

  704. Do I have to chose just one? Either the Park Hyatt Chicago or the Andaz 5th Avenue in NYC!

  943. Planning a trip to Japan for next year – a couple nights at Park Hyatt Tokyo would be amazing!

  955. taking my wife to London this summer, her first time there, so my pick is: Hyatt Regency London

  1210. Currently, I’m enjoying a rare week of vaction at the Park Hyatt Paris-Vendome, and would love to return again!

  1291. Going to be spending a weekend in Seoul. Staying at the Park Hyatt Seoul would be unforgettable.

  1414. Gary and hyatt thank you for the promo.

    I’d stay at the hyatt regency sanctuary cove hotel at the gold coast Australia.

  1474. Hyatt Sha Tin China.
    Close to Hong Kong but just far enough away for a nice rural mountain/river location.

  1762. I could really use this points!
    My choice would be Hyatt Regency Bonaventure in Fort Lauderdale
    Thanks!

  1845. Hyatt Philadelphia! Home of the XIX restaurant and the grand dame of an historical city

  1954. I would love to stay at the new Park Hyatt Sydney which is throwing its doors open on 13 February 2012

  1968. Will use the points to stay at Hyatt Regency Coolum, Golf Resort and Spa in the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia

  1979. Will use the points for an excellent stay in Park Hyatt Tokyo. Ive been hooked ever since i read your review

  2063. I would use the points to stay at the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa in Hawaii. They have their own saltwater lagoons!

  2121. Park Hyatt Aviara – I’ll be heading to the San Diego area later this year for a college buddy’s wedding.

  2155. I won the contest last year and liked the rules last year better (only one entry per person). Anyway I would be spending my new winning points at Hyatt Place Scottsdale/Old Town

  2186. Hyatt Regency Delhi – I’m also considering going to India for another college buddy’s wedding in June.

  2189. Gary,
    I would love to use the points at the soon-to-be–reopened Park Hyatt Sydney. Incidentally, the hotel costs 22K points per night, so 22K (or even 44K!) points would work out perfectly!
    Thanks,
    Dan B

  2324. oops… my posting didnt have the right email… the correct one is on this message…

  2487. Any of the European Park Hyatts would be great – Milan, Zurich, Paris, Istanbul, Hamburg or even Moscow!

  3098. My wife has been waiting and waiting for her first trip to Paris after 2 planned trips have been canceled. So the Park Hyatt Paris is a no-brainer.

    Park Hyatt Maldives

  3641. I am going to Japan in the summer, staying at the Park Hyatt in Tokyo would certainly be the icing on the cake.

  3844. Holy crap! Nearly 4,000 entries! Am I repeating if I say Park Hyatt Tokyo because I mispelled it the first time?! If so – then Grand Hyatt Kauai is also on my hit list!

  4340. If I couldn’t get to Hawaii, maybe a little fun in the sun down in Miami at the Hyatt Regency Coral Gables.
