One of the more exciting partnerships in the hotel loyalty space is the connection between World of Hyatt and Small Luxury Hotels of the World.

The partnership allows you to earn points via hotel stays (or credit cards in the US) and spend them on amazing boutique hotel experiences in places rarely covered by the major hotel chains, and/or earn Hyatt points and elite status credit by staying at those SLH hotels that have joined the Hyatt platform. I’ve managed to try out a couple of SLH hotels already and I definitely enjoyed the experience.

Not all SLH hotels are participating in World of Hyatt, but more are being added regularly (with the latest addition of 56 more SLH hotels, the total of participating SLH hotels is now more than 300).

You do sometimes pay a higher rate via Hyatt than you would pay directly, but you gain these advantages:

• Complimentary Wi-Fi
• Daily complimentary continental breakfast for two guests
• Room upgrade (one category at check-in if available)
• Early check-in (noon, based upon availability at check-in)
• Late check-out (2:00pm, based upon availability at check-in)

Earn 3,000 Bonus Points

Between now and 2 March, 2020, you can earn 3,000 bonus points when booking a stay at any SLH hotel via the World of Hyatt website. IMPORTANT: Only paid stays will qualify – award stays will NOT!

Registration is required before 31 January, 2020 – you can register by clicking here.

You can earn the bonus points as many times as you like, although you would have to hotel hop from one hotel to another to earn 3,000 points for each SLH “stay”  (i.e. you can’t just make a series of one-night reservations at the same hotel).

Bottom line

Thanks to the addition of peak and off-peak award pricing – click here for details – 3,000 points is nearly enough for a free off-peak night at a Category 1 hotel.  When viewed from a different perspective, I value 3,000 Hyatt points at roughly £40.  That is certainly enough incentive to find somewhere with a reasonably-priced SLH hotel, and check it out for yourself…
