I love to transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards points to Hyatt for free hotel stays. Emily and I had great experiences staying at hotels like the Park Hyatt Vendome-Paris.
You can get Big Travel with Small Money at Hyatt hotels by transferring the points you earn from the 80,000-point Ink Business Preferred sign-up bonus.
Using the sign-up bonus for a 3-night stay at a Category 6 Hyatt hotel could save you $1,800+ out of pocket. And you can choose from luxury hotels just about anywhere in the world!
I’ll show you beautiful Hyatt hotels around the world where you can stay for 3 nights free with Chase Ultimate Rewards points!
Use Chase Points at Hyatt

Link: All the Ways to Earn Hyatt Points
Hyatt has hotels all over the world! And many of them are a terrific value with points.I love that you can transfer Chase Ultimate Rewards points to Hyatt at a 1:1 ratio.
This means you can use the Ink Business Preferred 80,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points for 3 free nights at Category 6 Hyatt hotels. Because these hotels cost 25,000 Hyatt points per night for a free night.
And you’ll have points left over after meeting the card’s minimum spending requirement. So you’ll be on your way to earning a 4th free night at these fantastic Hyatt hotels.
You could also use the 80,000 points for 4 nights at less expensive Category 5 hotels. Plus, there are many other options. If you need more points to extend your stay, remember there are plenty of ways to earn Hyatt points!
Note: I let you know the Chase Ink Business Preferred may increase to 100,000 points on a limited, targeted basis as a test within the next ~5 months.
And Hyatt has a no “blackout date” policy. So when there are standard rooms available, you’ll be able to use Hyatt points for a free night. But you might have to call Hyatt to check and book your stay.
Here are 7 Category 6 hotels you could stay 3 nights for free when you use Chase points at Hyatt.
1. Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa
Emily and I stayed at Grand Hyatt Kauai and Spa and loved the hotel’s lush setting, swimming pools, and beach location.The hotel has many gardens and pathways. Plus, outside the hotel grounds, you can enjoy local cuisine at nearby restaurants and see other attractions.
For example, you can see waterfalls at Opaekaa Falls and enjoy vegetarian (and non-vegetarian!) hot dogs at Puka Dogs.
I found a 3-night award stay available in February 2017. This same stay would cost ~$1,700. So using sign-up bonus points from Ink Business Preferred sign-up bonus would save you lots of money!
2. Andaz 5th Avenue
New York City’s 5th Avenue is one of the world’s most famous shopping streets. When you stay at the Andaz 5th Avenue, you can enjoy luxury shopping or walk to a Broadway theater to see a show.
Besides using points to get free nights at the hotel, you’ll also get complimentary drinks (beer, wine, and champagne) in the lobby. And you’ll get famous Beekman 1802 soaps and shampoos in the bathrooms.
The same stay would cost ~$1,400 if you paid out of pocket!
3. Park Hyatt Vienna
You can mix culture and luxury with a stay at the Park Hyatt Vienna. There are many museums and historic sites nearby, including the popular Imperial Palace.
This hotel ranks #3 on TripAdvisor. Folks love the beautifully decorated rooms and the character of the hotel, which used to be a bank building.
And if you like shopping, you’ll be steps away from Vienna’s exclusive shopping district.
You could use 75,000 Hyatt points to stay 3 free nights at the the hotel in March 2017. This saves you ~$1,400 out of pocket for the same stay.
4. Hyatt Zilara Cancun
The Hyatt Zilara Cancun is an all-inclusive hotel with a beautiful beachfront location.
On separate occasions, Million Mile Secrets team members Scott and Harlan stayed here. Both thought the hotel had a great selection of food. And there’s top-shelf alcohol included.
Plus, you’re only a ~5-minute taxi from the main nightlife area in Cancun.
You’ll get 3 nights for 75,000 Hyatt points, but you’ll need to call Hyatt to book award nights.
I called Hyatt and confirmed an award stay for 2 guests in March 2017. This same stay would cost ~$1,550 if you paid cash.
I’d recommend calling Hyatt to confirm award nights are available before you transfer your Chase Ultimate Rewards points.
5. Park Hyatt Chicago
For a luxurious experience in Chicago, you can stay at the Park Hyatt Chicago. You’ll be on famous Michigan Avenue, with high-end shopping and great restaurants.
You could visit the the 96th floor bar in the John Hancock Center, which is a couple of buildings away. It has amazing views of the Chicago skyline.
The hotel also has a spectacular spa offering massages and a unique hydro facial. Sounds relaxing!
You could use 3 free nights for a trip near St. Patrick’s Day in March 2017, when the Chicago River is dyed green. I found 3 award nights available, which would otherwise cost ~$1,280.
6. Grand Hyatt Tokyo
Visit the Grand Hyatt Tokyo and enjoy a stay at this high-tech hotel that ranks 5th of all hotels in Tokyo on TripAdvisor.
There are 7 highly-rated restaurants in the hotel. And it’s near the posh Ginza shopping district.
And if you’re into Japanese films, you could visit the nearby Toho Cinemas, which is open 24 hours on weekends.
You could stay 3 nights free in late March 2017 using points from the Ink Business Preferred sign-up bonus. The same stay costs ~$1,890 if you paid cash.
7. Grand Hyatt Cannes Hotel Martinez
You could experience a 5-star experience in the South of France with a stay at the Grand Hyatt Cannes Hotel Martinez. The hotel overlooks the Bay of Cannes.
If you’re a foodie like me, you might enjoy eating at the hotel’s restaurant, La Palme d’Or, which is rated with 2 Michelin stars.
Several guests on TripAdvisor say the hotel gave a complimentary bottle of champagne!
I found 3 free nights in April 017. This would cost ~$900 if you paid cash!
Bottom Line
With the fantastic Ink Business Preferred sign-up bonus, you’ll have enough points to stay 3 nights free at luxurious Hyatt hotels around the world.
You could enjoy 3 nights in the South of France at the Grand Hyatt Cannes Hotel Martinez, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. Or stay in midtown Manhattan at the Andaz 5th Avenue where you’ll get complimentary drinks and snacks in the lobby.
