Do Hyatt Globalists Get Free Valet Parking? The Truth Is That It Depends
We spend a lot of time talking about World of Hyatt and Hyatt elite status at MtM, even if elite status might be a scam. Hyatt Globalist status comes with a ton of perks like upgrades, $100+ breakfasts, lounge access and a ton more. One thing that flies under the radar a bit but is awesome is that Hyatt Globalists get free parking on award stays. Yes it is annoying that you only get free parking on award stays but we are points people so that is most stays for us 🤣. The savings can really add up too, sometimes being $30-$40 a night! But do Hyatt Globalists get free valet parking included in this status perk? The answer is, that it depends.
Hyatt Globalist Free Parking Perk
So we already know that the parking perk only works on award stays. That is a little bit limiting but nothing we can’t handle.
The terms say the following:
Enjoy complimentary parking on free night awards (available at participating locations where parking can be charged to your room)

Much more than that potentially. About $70 in Chicago (personally experienced) and more in NYC I have heard.
Chicago parking is insane. I have paid more per night for parking than I did for the actual stay before.
Explorist has gotten me free valet two different weeklong stays at the Grand Hyatt Kauai
Awesome Robert – did you have to ask for it or did they offer it to you?
Currently staying at HR Austin. My Hyatt Concierge states to me that there is no charge for valet parking. When I checked in that wasn’t the case. However since I told them that My Hyatt Concierge state’s otherwise…they decided to waive it.
You may have to use that one again 🙂
I always get free valet parking on my award stays with Hyatt being a Globalist. It’s the best perk for me, I love it. Literally base my stay strategy on using free awards with Hyatt when I’m going to have a car vs. Marriott/Hilton when I’m not. In Chicago at the Park Hyatt or Thompson this is an easy $65-72 a night savings. I’ve never had an issue either, just charge to the room and poof it’s gone!
It definitely can sway the decision one way or another. Adds up on longer stays.
