Everyday I get asked hundreds of travel questions. My inbox is constantly full. It takes hours each day to answer them all. I’m not bothered because I enjoy answering people’s travel questions and helping others travel more. However, not every question merits a single 1,000 word blog post to answer it. Most travel questions have simple and short answers to them. Today, I’ve taken twenty questions that were asked on Facebook and and posted the answer here. So, without further […]

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.

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.
