Your guide to the World of Hyatt award chart

3 weeks ago 10

World of Hyatt is one of the few hotel loyalty programs that still has award charts. Although World of Hyatt uses dynamic pricing for Mr & Mrs Smith properties, it still publishes and uses fixed award charts for its others. The program also maintains different award charts for all-inclusive resorts and Miraval resorts.

Hyatt implemented peak and off-peak pricing in October 2021. So award nights can vary in cost slightly for a specific property depending on whether your stay is peak, standard or off-peak. Let's take a closer look at each of the Hyatt award charts.

Standard rooms at Hyatt hotels and resorts

Here's the current Hyatt award chart for booking standard rooms at Hyatt hotels and resorts (excluding all-inclusive resorts, Miraval resorts and Mr & Mrs Smith properties):

Hotel categoryOff-peak points per nightStandard points per nightPeak points per night
13,5005,0006,500
26,5008,0009,500
39,00012,00015,000

725,00030,00035,000
835,00040,00045,000

You can also book a Points + Cash option at some properties. With Points + Cash, you pay 50% of the points required based on the chart above and get 50% to 70% off the standard rate for the room type you're booking.

You can book standard awards, including Points + Cash awards, online. When these rates are available, you'll see them when you check the "Use Points" box before searching.

Room upgrades on paid stays

You can redeem Hyatt points for room upgrades on paid stays at some hotels and resorts. Here's how many Hyatt points you'll need to redeem for each upgrade type:

  • Club upgrade: 3,000 points per night
  • Standard suite upgrade: 6,000 points per night
  • Premium suite upgrade: 9,000 points per night

You can book new stays online but must contact Hyatt to upgrade an existing paid stay using points. You may need to meet minimum room type and rate requirements to upgrade your reservation. You'll usually need to pay the standard rate for at least a deluxe room at Hyatt resorts and a standard room at a hotel that is not a resort.

Hyatt's award night rate only includes two people at all-inclusive resorts. So, as you can see in the following chart, you'll need to use more points if you plan to bring a third or fourth person to your Hyatt all-inclusive award stay.

All-inclusive categoryOff-peak points per person for the third or fourth guestStandard points per person for the third or fourth guestPeak points per person for the third or fourth guest
A6,5007,5008,500

E17,00020,00023,000
F22,00025,00029,000

Based on the points cost for additional guests, a family of four might prefer redeeming Hyatt points for two rooms with two guests each instead of one room with four guests.

You can book the Berkshires location online, but you'll need to contact Hyatt to book stays at the other locations with points. Points + Cash rates are available at Miraval properties as well.

If you frequently stay with Hyatt, remember you can select a Miraval extra night award through the Hyatt Milestone Rewards program at the 100-, 110-, 120-, 130-, 140- and 150-night milestones.

Frequently asked questions

How many Hyatt points do you need for a free night?

You need 3,500 Hyatt points to book an off-peak award night in a standard room at a Category 1 Hyatt property. However, an off-peak Category 1 night could cost just 1,750 Hyatt points plus a cash copay if you book a Points + Cash rate.

What is a Hyatt point worth?

Based on TPG's August 2024 valuations, a Hyatt point is worth 1.7 cents.

How can you earn Hyatt points?

There are many ways to earn Hyatt points, including paid stays, the World of Hyatt Credit Card and the World of Hyatt Business Credit Card.

However, a quick way to boost your balance is to transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards points to Hyatt, transfer Bilt Rewards Points to Hyatt or buy Hyatt points. Another World of Hyatt member could also transfer Hyatt points to your account.

Bottom line

The World of Hyatt award chart can be overwhelming since you can book multiple room types with points, each costing a different amount. Plus, you'll need to redeem different point amounts for peak, standard and off-peak nights. However, this can be good once you get a handle on the award charts. You can still find great value even if you prefer to stick to the low end of the Hyatt award chart.
