Possibly my all around favorite hotel brand in the world is Park Hyatt. Yes, ultimately there are more "high end" brands than Park Hyatt. For example, Aman Resorts are in a completely different league.
That being said, for me Park Hyatt strikes the perfect balance between luxury, understatement, and my love of points/hotel status. You can't redeem your hotel points for a stay at Amankila, but you can redeem your Hyatt Gold Passport points for any Park Hyatt in the world.
I've just wrapped up a quick stay at the Park Hyatt Seoul, which for me is the ultimate "brand standard" Park Hyatt. What do I mean by that? It's not the most over-the-top Park Hyatt in the world, but if I were to introduce someone to the Park Hyatt brand I'd bring them to this place. It just exemplifies everything I expect from the Park Hyatt brand, and then some.
You know the best part of the hotel, though? The Park Hyatt Seoul a Category 4 Gold Passport property, meaning you can use your annual free night from the Hyatt Visa here. If redeeming points it's just 15,000 Gold Passport points per night, or through Points + Cash it costs just $100 plus 7,500 Gold Passport points per night.

Back in August I wrote about the increased sign-up bonus on the Virgin Atlantic MasterCard. While the card has had fairly good bonuses in the past, this was the best I had ever seen, at up to 90,000 miles after qualifying spend. Anyway, a while after I posted the link it seemed to have disappeared, though the offer is back once again.
The Virgin Atlantic MasterCard isn't the most lucrative credit card out there given that I don’t find it to be very rewarding for everyday spend, and I don’t find their Flying Club miles to be all that valuable.
Still, this has the potential to be a good sign-up bonus, especially if you have a lot of the other lucrative cards out there, and if you spend a lot in categories that don't other qualify for bonuses.
The card is marketed as offering up to 90,000 miles, as follows:
