Most Beloved Group, Powerful Promotions

Today is a detailed discussion on the Hyatt Hotels Group during the Feizhu 618 promotion. Hyatt is my favorite hotel group. Although it has significantly fewer hotels in China compared to IHG, Marriott, Hilton, and Accor… Hyatt does not open stores blindly; it focuses more on reputation. The hotels under its brand offer great hardware and quality soft services. The dining experience is especially outstanding.

Our company has a preference for Hyatt, and we previously sent our editorial staff for rotation at Park Hyatt. Don’t think too much! I have transferred to work at Park Hyatt now; see you at Yuexuan next time.

Hyatt’s focus during this 618 promotion is on two main points. The first is a value coupon of 200 off for every purchase over 3999, which is equivalent to a 5% discount. The second point is that the Hyatt flagship store provides store points; even the most basic flagship store members can reclaim 5% points with good usage. For advanced members, the point reclaim can be as high as 12%. The discounts are indeed substantial.

What’s in store today? I’ll just post the table directly.

Must-Have Hot Deals:
1) Sanya Tianliwan Hyatt Luxury Garden View Room (one night with king bed) + Dual-person simple meal, 520 RMB; Ocean View Room for two nights including breakfast + Two-person dinner (choose between Zao Po vinegar or coconut chicken), 1388 RMB; Deluxe Ocean View Room for three nights including breakfast + One of three selected dinners (Island Chinese family package / Western café package / Zao Po vinegar hotpot) + Two tickets to West Island, 2299 RMB; Guest Room Ocean View for four nights including breakfast + Guest Room privileges, 2699 RMB.

image4.png

Valid until September 29, 2024, with the two-night ocean view package being non-peak pricing throughout summer, with other surcharges and limitations outlined on the page.

image5.png

The Tianliwan Hyatt opened last year and is one of the rare one-bay-one-hotel types in Sanya. A hotel occupying its own bay area, featuring a private coastline, away from excessive noise, making it suitable for vacation.

image6.png

The highlight of this promotion is the two-night ocean view room including breakfast and a dual-person dinner (choosing between Zao Po vinegar or coconut chicken) for 1388 RMB; no price increase throughout the summer. For non-summer, it provides administrative privileges (with happy hour every evening, equivalent to two more simple meals). This means for 1388 RMB, you get a total of two night stays, two breakfasts, two happy hours, and one dinner. Absolutely unbeatable. This hotel also has its own beach.

image7.png

image8.png

image9.png

The dual-person dinner offers a choice between Zao Po vinegar and coconut chicken; I’ll post images as well. Hyatt’s dining has always been reliable, and both of these options are local specialties from Hainan, I personally prefer Zao Po vinegar a bit more.

image10.png

image11.png

The ocean view room at Tianliwan Hyatt is 43 square meters (excluding the balcony area). Every room has a balcony, a bathtub, and a sea view. You can see the ocean 100% of the time.

image12.png

The hotel is also very family-friendly, featuring a “Happy Fun Camp” covering 817.5 square meters, perfect for bringing kids.

image13.png

Another highlight of Tianliwan Hyatt is that it is the closest hotel to West Island Pier, making it convenient to visit West Island. West Island still retains its local charm, inhabited by several residents who operate food stalls and restaurants, engaging in tourism-related businesses. The West Island Fishing Village has been rated as one of the most beautiful fishing villages in the country.

2) Sanya Haitang Bay Grand Hyatt Luxury Ocean View Room for two nights including breakfast + Family package for one, 1988 RMB; Three nights including breakfast + Buffet dinner for two adults and two children, 2888 RMB; 105㎡ Ocean View Suite for two nights including breakfast + Guest privileges, 2488 RMB.

image18.png

Valid until October 31, 2024; not usable during National Day, and ocean view rooms from July 15 to August 20 incur an additional charge of 300 RMB per night, while ocean view suites during the same period incur an additional charge of 700 RMB per night.

image19.png

Haitang Bay Grand Hyatt has been recommended multiple times by me; it is a personal favorite in Sanya’s Haitang Bay area.

image20.png

The hotel features large rooms (the smallest room size is 68 square meters) and this package allows for a free extra bed. The Grand Hyatt’s “Happy Fun Camp” is the largest in the Hainan area.
It’s perfect for family travel.

image21.png

The “Happy Fun Camp” at Haitang Bay Grand Hyatt is something my child loves; they want to go in the morning and afternoon and are never free to leave. This gives parents much more peace of mind.

image22.png

image23.png

Outdoors, there is also a small water park specifically for kids, ensuring they can expend their energy thoroughly.

I recommend the three-night package, which includes a buffet dinner for two adults and two children. If I remember correctly, the buffet’s group buying price is around 258 per person. Moreover, the Grand Hyatt buffet is delicious since it is under the Hyatt brand.

If you choose the 2488 RMB package for two nights, you will get the 105㎡ ocean view suite with guest privileges, meaning breakfast and evening simple meals are included.
This type of room tends to be more expensive; usually priced above 1500 on the calendar.

3) Qingdao Hyatt for two nights without breakfast, 1298 RMB.
Valid until September 30, 2024; no price increase during non-summer weekdays and weekends. For summer weekdays, an additional 500 RMB per night applies; weekends have a surcharge of 800 RMB per night.

image29.png

The key is that in May, June, and September, there are no price increases for both weekdays and weekends. It’s quite rare for seaside hotels in Qingdao to offer such pricing; these three months are also perfect for traveling to Qingdao.

image30.png

The highlights of Qingdao Hyatt are quite distinct. Qingdao St. Regis claims to be the highest in Qingdao. Qingdao Hyatt asserts, “Oh, I have a beach.” The Ocean View Garden claims, “I have the best service among Qingdao hotels.” Qingdao Hyatt will respond, “Oh, but my beach is in the city center.”

image31.png

image32.png

Qingdao Hyatt is unique in that it opens directly onto the beach, a one-of-a-kind experience in Qingdao. The next image was taken from the public area of Qingdao Hyatt, with the beach and bathing area right at your feet.

image33.png

Additionally, the dining experience is noteworthy; East Sea 88 is renowned for its Chinese cuisine within the Hyatt hotel chain, with tourists flocking to eat Qingdao prawns here. My phone screen was a bit dirty but trust me, Qingdao prawns are indeed huge. If I remember correctly, three large prawns pictured below cost slightly over 200, and with a food card, you can get discounts.

image34.png

image35.png

The rooms are nice too, with a standard room area of 42㎡, featuring a city view.

image36.png

image37.png

What left an impression on me was the mini-bar in the room, showcasing three iconic drinks in the Qingdao beverage scene (one positive, one negative, one mid-range). I just don’t know if the mini-bar is still like this at Qingdao Hyatt. I stayed there in 2021.

4) Jingdezhen Hyatt Jiaxuan for two nights with breakfast + Buffet dinner + Two tickets to a local art museum, 1388 RMB; Jingdezhen Hyatt Selection for two nights with breakfast + Buffet dinner + Two tickets to a local art museum, 2588 RMB.

image42.png

Valid until September 30, 2024; for Jiaxuan, there’s an additional charge of 200 RMB per night on Fridays and Saturdays, and 300 RMB from June 8 to 10; for the Selection, 300 RMB additional on Fridays and Saturdays, and 500 RMB from June 8 to 10.

image43.png

Jingdezhen Hyatt Jiaxuan and Jingdezhen Hyatt Selection are located in the same area, positioned extremely well, right in the Tao Xichuan cultural and creative street area.
This is a landmark location in Jingdezhen. In terms of cultural tourism facilities, the Tao Xichuan area is top-notch, with numerous ceramic shops, restaurants, cafes, bars, bookstores, hotels, and so on, creating a mature commercial complex. Regular creative markets are also held on weekends in this area.

image44.png

image45.png

We have stayed at both; Jiaxuan offers slightly better value for money. It can be considered the budget-friendly alternative to the Tao Xichuan Hotel. Although the public areas for the two hotels are not interconnected, the quality is still commendable.

image46.png

Although when comparing rooms, Jiaxuan is indeed a bit inferior to the Tao Xichuan Hotel, but considering its pricing, it is quite more affordable.

image47.png

The 999 RMB for two nights has already sold out; I would recommend stocking up on the two-night package including breakfast + Cobalt Blue buffet dinner for two + tickets to the local art museum, at 1388 RMB.

image48.png

The Cobalt Blue restaurant is within Hyatt Selection. The restaurant derives its name from a traditional blue pigment used in ceramic glazes, which is also the primary color tone for blue and white porcelain. Therefore, the restaurant features elements related to blue and white porcelain in its floor design, utensils, and tables. This restaurant is visually appealing.

The Cobalt Blue buffet for two isn’t inexpensive; group buying is already 498 for two. So the 1399 package offers remarkable value, and you’re likely to miss out if you wait too long.

image49.png

The Hyatt Selection is relatively higher in quality and aesthetics. The hotel’s architecture was designed by the top British designer David Chipperfield.
We have written about this hotel. I would willingly travel just to stay at this hotel.

image50.png

Now, let’s talk about the pool. It features pure white tiles paired with shallow blue water; the simple blue and white tones are refreshingly appealing.

The standard room in the Selection has an area of 45㎡ and is visually appealing. All guest rooms come with floor-to-ceiling windows, and when the weather is sunny, sunlight streams directly into the rooms.

A good hotel, coupled with the attractive weekend getaway possibilities in Jingdezhen, is worth stocking up on.

5) Beijing Shoubei Zhaolong Hotel Scenic Room for one night including breakfast, 990 RMB.

image52.png

Valid until September 29, 2024; no price increases throughout, not even in the summer.

image53.png

The biggest advantage of this package is its summer pricing and the weekends in summer are also unaffected. Summer is the most expensive time in Beijing since parents prefer to take their kids to Beijing, leading to a significant hike in prices for most hotels within the city during that time.

image54.png

Shoubei Zhaolong Hotel is an old establishment, having opened in 1985. However, it temporarily closed in 2018 for renovations, taking nearly two years to complete. Aside from the exterior, everything has been remodeled and upgraded.

image55.png

The newly renovated Shoubei Zhaolong Hotel is chic and visually appealing.

image56.png

It is also a lifestyle hotel, equipped with an art gallery, gym, and other personalized spaces. The entire first floor is almost a showcase for various artworks.

image57.png

A significant highlight of the hotel is its restaurant. The Michelin One-Star, Black Pearl One-Diamond restaurant Ling Long is right inside the hotel. It’s surprising that such a delicious restaurant only holds one Michelin star.

image58.png

Moreover, the standard rooms at Shoubei Zhaolong Hotel aren’t large, measuring around 27-30㎡, a common issue with older hotels that have been renovated.

This wave of 618 promotions sees most Beijing hotels increasing their prices; Shoubei Zhaolong Hotel stands out as a rare find for a summer promotion without a price increase, making it worthwhile to stock up. Yet, if you’re looking at non-summer, keep an eye on the price calendar as it can vary significantly.

We have also stayed here and written about it. It is a great deal; don’t miss it!

Fengsheng Wuqiji Hyatt Selection for one night with breakfast.

The Hyatt Selection (The Unbound Collection) brand is Hyatt’s collection of niche boutique hotels, comparable to SLH, Hilton’s Curio Collection, and Marriott’s Luxury Collection.
I personally enjoy staying at Hyatt Selections since each one is uniquely different, which aligns with my preferences.

image65.png

This offer allows for stays at the Chongqing Ritz-Carlton Hyatt Selection, perched at the highest point in Chongqing, overlooking the entire skyline from a bird’s eye view. And the Liberation Monument is right downstairs.

Furthermore, each room in the Ritz-Carlton offers a river view, either facing the Yangtze River or the Jialing River.

7) Hyatt Hotels Group Alila and Park Hyatt 7 hotels for two consecutive nights with breakfast, starting at 2488 RMB.

image73.png

No price increase during summer weekends is rare and attractive.

image74.png

Shanghai Park Hyatt, Guangzhou Park Hyatt, and Beijing Park Hyatt are all skyline hotels.
Featuring extreme high-altitude views, the locations are top-notch.
