Share with a friend

Being upgraded to a suite, enjoying free breakfast, free parking, and no resort fees. All these perks and more can be yours when you stay at Hyatt hotels worldwide. To become a Hyatt Globalist you have to stay 60 nights a year at Hyatt hotels. But here’s how to get Hyatt Globalist status for free.

Globalist is Hyatt’s top-tier elite status. If you stay 60 nights a year at Hyatt hotels you can earn Hyatt Globalist status. But now you don’t have to.

We’ve partnered with Hyatt and you can get Hyatt Globalist status for free.

Hyatt Globalist

There are four membership levels in the World of Hyatt loyalty program (formerly Hyatt Goldpassport):

  • Member
  • Discoverist
  • Explorist
  • Globalist

When you join the World of Hyatt you receive member status. After staying 10 nights in a year or earning 25,000 base points, you become a Discoverist. With 30 nights or 50,000 base points, you reach the Explorist level. And after 60 nights or 100,000 base points, you earn Globalist status.

I got a free hotel upgrade to the Park Suite at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place. All I had to do was ask. | hotel hack | travel hacking | TravelingWellForLess.com

You can earn an extra 10,000 bonus points or a suite upgrade (your choice) when you stay:

Hi Kim,

The free Globalist offer was a limited time special promo with Hyatt. But you can get Hyatt Globalist status by using points. Award stays count towards status - https://www.travelingwellforless.com/2017/12/28/world-of-hyatt-count-award-stays-towards-elite-status/.

You can also get 500 to 1,000 bonus points per night when you stay at Hyatt hotels - https://www.travelingwellforless.com/2018/02/15/1000-bonus-points-a-night-hyatt/.

If you're short on points you can transfer Ultimate Rewards points, get the Hyatt credit card (40k points), or apply for one of the many Ultimate Rewards earning cards.
