The world of Hyatt credit card.
I took my old credit card out of the drawer and upgraded it to the new version, which cost me $30,000. I have been spending this year on the card to help lock in my elite status with a concierge and suite upgrade next year. Even though I can't confirm those points into suites, I picked up a couple of free nights.
Hyatt points are more valuable than other hotel chain points, and they are also the easiest to use to secure the best rooms at their hotels. I like the card a lot.
There are a lot of things I love about the card.
You can earn 30,000 bonus points after you spend $3,000 on purchases in your first 3 months. Up to 30,000 More Bonus Points can be earned by earning 2 Bonus Points total per $1 spent in the first 6 months from account opening on purchases that normally earn 1 Bonus Point.
The bonus is worth $700 because I value Hyatt points at just over a dollar per point.
If you accumulate 60,000 points, you can get 2 free nights at any Hyatt hotel up to category 7 at standard award pricing.

Excellent earning for ongoing spend. The best card for Hyatt spend is the earning structure for this card.
4 points per dollar spent by Hyatt.
2 points per dollar restaurants; airline tickets purchased through the airline; fitness club memberships; local transit and commute services.
1 point for other purchases.
The old card earned 3 points per dollar with Hyatt, and I use the Hyatt card for Hyatt spend. They also give fitness club memberships and class passes. This card is the only one I know of that has bonuses.

You can get a free night each anniversary year for a Hyatt property. Most Hyatts are in those categories. These nights are free and earn elite status credit. They are valid even when peak room pricing applies.
The Grand Hyatt is in the bay.
Each year you spend $15,000 on the card, you will get an additional free night. That makes it attractive to put $15,000 a year on the card.

Automaticist status matches status in MGM's M life rewards program.
Every year you get 5 elite nights just for having the card, and you get 2 elite nights for every $5,000 spent on the card. There is no limit to the number of nights you can earn.
You could earn Globalist with no credit card spend. You can earn Globalist at 60 nights.

There are lounges at some properties.

The Park Hyatt Vendome is in Paris.
There is an additional bonus for earning more nights. Spending on this card helps towards the Hyatt thresholds of 70, 80, 90, and 100 nights, as well as the choice of a confirmed suite. If you keep going with this card, your credit card spend can put you over one of these thresholds.
Points are great for high-end redemptions. Outside of all-inclusive Miraval retreat, the most expensive Hyatt standard room costs 30,000 points. There are many high end hotels that cost less. Some partner hotels cost more.
The Park Hyatt Hadahaa is in the island of Hadahaa.
There are no better places to access suites. You can spend extra points for suites at Hyatt and redeem them for double the points of a standard room. They are better than any other chains for upgrade. 6000 points per night can be used to upgrade a paid stay to a suite, and 9000 points can be used to upgrade a premium suite. If you like upgraded accommodations, Hyatt points are a good tool.
Transfer in Chase Ultimate rewards and get more points. You can transfer points from the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card to Hyatt so that you can get points from the World Of Hyatt Credit Card and top off your account with other points so you have enough for redemption.
Points can be combined. You can combine Chase points in your Hyatt account, but you can also move Hyatt points between accounts at no charge. If you get the World Of Hyatt Credit Card and a family member does, they can give you their points and you can redeem them.
For longer stays, free nights can be combined. You can earn a lot of free nights with the card. But what if they aren't enough? If your travel companion gets the card and earns free nights, just make a few bookings in their name and a few in yours, back-to-back. I ran into a couple at the Park Hyatt who had each gotten the Hyatt card and redeemed free nights that way.
