The Hardest Hyatts to Book on Points

Some Hyatt hotels release award (free-night) space so rarely that a standard-room points stay is close to unbookable. These are the aspirational properties where haiya sees the least award availability. Each hotel is ranked by the share of forward-year nights WE HAVE CHECKED on which we have seen standard-room award space — the hotel at the top has seen none at all — and the percentage underneath is that hotel's own one-night open-rate over roughly the next three months. Both are within-hotel numbers, not a cross-property score, and a hotel appears here only once we have checked enough of its year to say anything.

Ranked by how much of the year they open

The first line is that hotel's own forward year — how many of the next 366 nights we have seen standard-room award space, at any length of stay. The percentage under it is its one-night rate over the next 90 days. Both are within-hotel numbers.

These are the hotels you cannot just search for — space shows up and is gone the same day. Set a free alert on any of them and we email you when a standard award night opens.

Method

Based on haiya's continuous daily tracking of standard-room, 1-night award (points) availability across every Hyatt hotel, for check-ins over the next 90 days; each hotel here has at least 30 such checks. Open-rates count nights still bookable at end of day (not brief intraday flickers) and update daily — award space can appear at any time, so set a free alert to catch it.
