This is the time of year when Hyatt lets their customers know about upcoming changes to their award categories for several hotels. The changes occur due to a variety of metrics and some of these changes are positive while many are negative, particularly for some of the higher-end and more luxury properties. Here is the 2023 Hyatt changes that are coming.

You can find the complete list from Hyatt here. There are 214 hotels going up in the category listings and 158 that will drop to a lower category.
Unfortunately, as happened last year for the first time, there are actual Hyatt properties moving up to the Category 8 listing which had originally made been for properties that were part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World partnership. Yes, there are some of those shifting this year as well but the big disappointment is to see more Hyatt properties joining that highest of categories.
The hotels that will be moving up to Category 8 in the Hyatt family are:
- Alila Marea Beach Resort Encinitas (California)
- Carmel Valley Ranch (California)
- Hyatt Carmel Highlands (California)
- Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort and Spa (Colorado)
- Hyatt Centric Key West Resort & Spa (Florida)
- 7Pines Resort Sardinia (Italy)
- Park Hyatt Zurich (Switzerland)
- The Lodge at Spruce Peak (Vermont)
- Hôtel Martinez (France)
I will have some more posts coming out shortly with more information but I wanted to get this post out now so you can start making plans. Even though the changes do not come into effect until March 28, there will be many people locking up their favorite properties now so award availability may start shrinking fast.
