Hyatt Hotels in Tokyo: A Simple Breakdown + Extra Gems Around Japan
#16 In this episode of Rewarding Routes, I break down how Hyatt hotels in Tokyo and a few around Japan can turn your Chase Ultimate Rewards® and Bilt points into real nights on the ground. Recorded in December 2025, I walk through how Hyatt’s fixed award chart works today, why it often delivers better value than dynamic hotel programs, and what kind of cents-per-point you can expect at both affordable and luxury properties.
We go station by station through Tokyo, covering options like Caption by Hyatt Kabutocho, Hyatt Centric Ginza, Andaz Tokyo, Hotel Toranomon Hills, Grand Hyatt Tokyo, Hyatt House Shibuya, Park Hyatt Tokyo, Hyatt Regency Tokyo, Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay, and Hyatt Regency Yokohama— lus real examples from our own stays. I also share how a single 60k signup bonus can translate into multiple free nights, and a few standout Hyatts across Japan that are worth keeping on your radar for future trips.
If you want to make Japan travel more affordable, more frequent, and more flexible, this episode gives you a simple breakdown of how Hyatt points can help you build your own rewarding route one trip at a time.
