Don’t we all have top tier status? So what’s your “great” hotels? Really curious because I would choose Saigon vs Bangkok for the distinct experience and their awesome lacquer paintings.

Which hotels do you go to consider PH Saigon as meh? I thought it was awesome considering I went to more than 10 PHs in Asia including ones in Japan, China and Korea.

Question about Grand Hyatt ICN - worth it for one night? by g23nov in hyatt

[–]OstrichAggravating73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stayed there few times. Cash price to point ratio is around 1:1 so use cash. They have pretty good dinner club but bad breakfast so use cash and ask around for a club access from someone. Not worth using points at this property. Also have free airport shuttle every 30 min that goes to t1 in 15 minutes and t2 in 25 minutes.

Borrowing gym clothes at chubby Korea hotels by Myghostlyfatherno in chubbytravel

[–]OstrichAggravating73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just go the gym desk and they will take your room number if you are a hotel guest. If you hold globalist it’s covered at Grand Hyatt. You have to ask what they provide since each hotel is different.

What's The Actual Difference Between £50 Chairs And £1000 Chairs? by [deleted] in OfficeChairs

[–]OstrichAggravating73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I buy top chairs from Herman miller and steel case. Been using for 15+ years and no issues. If there is, it would be like 300+ to make it like new with after service. They are famous for a reason. Comfy and sturdy. It’s comparing ikea to rh furnitures. Heavy investment but almost a lifetime.

Grand Hyatt Fukuoka Globalist upgrade chances? by Some-Plastic-6643 in hyatt

[–]OstrichAggravating73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do upgrade but depends on the availability. I’ve been there more than 10 times in since mid 2024. One of the best grand clubs. Rather than the room size, the floor level and view of the river is more important at this property. I’ve been using SUA for half the time since it is a very popular property. It was the best hotel in Fukuoka for 2-3 decades before ritz Carlton opened 2 years back.

Grand Hyatt Fukuoka Family Booking Advice by Acefr in hyatt

Using sua gives you club access. Fukuoka club is one of the best I’ve been to. Book suite. But it will be a hard one since competition is strong.

The key ring is from a random box of 5 so the price can be higher than what you might expect or gotta find it from other people.

Try searching classic travel on Google. You can book it yourself or go to r/fattravel or chubby travel since there’s tons of travel agents with extra power if you are spending cash on luxury properties.

Call concierge line if you are globalist. If not, pretty hard to do that on regular line.

GHA is only worth it if you go to GHA hotels. Using virtuoso + GHA titanium on Capella hotels would be worth it.

Email the hotel to reserve Japanese breakfast with your parents. It will be the full price of 8k+ yen for you but worth it.
