The Complete Guide to Hyatt Privé

Hyatt Hotels and Resorts may not have as large of a footprint as some of the other major hotel chains. Still, with over 1,100 properties worldwide, Hyatt has a solid global presence and a very popular World of Hyatt loyalty program.

Hyatt also has a program that allows you to book stays at a large number of luxury Hyatt hotels and still enjoy a heap of benefits, without having to hold elite status through World of Hyatt.

In this guide, we’ll dive into Hyatt’s preferred partner program, Hyatt Privé. We’ll look at what Hyatt brands participate in the program, what the potential benefits are, and when it makes the most sense to use Hyatt Privé to book your next trip.

What Is Hyatt Privé?

Hyatt Privé is Hyatt’s preferred partner program. Hyatt Privé bookings can only be made through a travel advisor or a travel agency.

The price you’ll pay for a participating Hyatt property through Hyatt Privé is the same price you would find if you were to book a public flexible rate with Hyatt on your own.

On the other hand, these lower rates can come with more restrictive cancellation and change policies, and aren’t eligible for the exclusive benefits of booking through Hyatt Privé.

• Grand Hyatt
• Hyatt Centric
• Hyatt Regency

• Thompson
• Alila
• JdV by Hyatt

If you are booking a Park Hyatt, Andaz, or Miraval property through Hyatt Privé, there’s no minimum stay requirement; however, there is a two-night minimum stay if you wish to book Grand Hyatt, Hyatt Regency, Alila, JdV by Hyatt, Thompson, or The Unbound Collection.

By booking through Hyatt Privé, you’ll receive a great deal of benefits and perks, which may even surpass the benefits you receive if you have World of Hyatt elite status.

For eligible stays booked via Hyatt Privé, you’ll receive:

• A $50 or $100 (USD) property credit per room per stay
