Hyatt House is the new brand for Hyatt created from the conversion of extended stay properties of SummerField Suites and the 2011 acquisition of Sierra Hotels. There are 53 Hyatt House hotels in the U.S. From a loyalty program point of view there are a few things to keep in mind with Hyatt House properties:

Last week BoardingArea blogger VeryGoodPoints posted “Starwood’s Beat the Timer how did I not know about this!?! I am asking myself the same question? You definitely need to know about Starwood’s Beat the Timer site if you are a Starwood Hotels fan and want discount rate options for hotels in Europe. This post shows a…
Marriott PointSavers dates offer reward nights at the price of one category lower. A Marriott Rewards category 6 hotel normally 30,000 points is only 25,000 points per night during PointSavers dates. 5th night free rewards also apply, so a 5-night stay at a category 6 hotel on PointSavers dates is only 100,000 points (4 x…
