From September 1, 2024, to November 30, 2024, World of Hyatt is offering 1,000 Bonus Points per night for stays at participating Unbound Collection properties. But before you pack your bags and start planning your stays, there are some important details—and caveats—you should know.

The Details

Here’s the gist: You can earn up to a maximum of 20,000 Bonus Points during the promotion period. To participate:

1. Register by October 31, 2024: Make sure to sign up for the promotion between August 26, 2024, and October 31, 2024. You can register for the offer on the promotion page here.
2. Be a World of Hyatt Credit Cardholder: Only those with a World of Hyatt Credit Card or World of Hyatt Business Credit Card are eligible.
3. Stay at Participating Hotels: Your nights must be at participating Unbound Collection hotels and be considered “Eligible Nights” (nights where you’re paying an eligible rate or redeeming a free night award).

For every eligible night during the promotion period—after you’ve registered—you’ll earn an additional 1,000 Bonus Points.

The Fine Print

While this promotion sounds great on paper (or screen), there are some limitations that make it less universally appealing:

Limited Availability

The Unbound Collection by Hyatt is not exactly sprawling compared to other brands. The number of participating hotels is relatively small. This means that unless you’re planning to visit specific locations where these hotels are situated, the promotion might not be as beneficial for you.

Exclusive Eligibility

You must hold either a World of Hyatt Credit Card or a World of Hyatt Business Credit Card to participate in this offer. This exclusivity could be frustrating for loyal customers who don’t have one of these specific credit cards.

Registration Required

Remember that you must register for this promotion before your stay; otherwise, your nights won’t count towards earning those bonus points.

Is It Worth It?

If you’re already planning trips that coincide with the locations of participating Unbound Collection hotels and hold one of the required credit cards, then this could be an excellent opportunity to rack up some extra points. However, if you don’t already have these plans or one of the specified credit cards, it may not justify going out of your way just for the bonus points.

In summary:

• Great if you fit all criteria: Perfect for those who already have travel plans involving Unbound Collection hotels and hold the necessary credit card.
• Less useful otherwise: May not be worth altering travel plans or applying for another credit card just for this promotion.

Final Thoughts

You can earn 1000 bonus points per night, up to a maximum of 20,000 points, for stays at Unbound Collection by Hyatt properties. The offer has its perks but also comes with significant restrictions that might limit its appeal.

Don’t forget to register for the offer.
