Not necessarily. They all have their plusses and minuses depending on usage and preference. We found that for the lower level hotels, we have preferred Hyatt Place to that of Hampton Inns, Courtyards, Four Points, etc. And when we are on the road and are stopping for merely a quick night's sleep, we choose price over luxury for obvious reasons. We also like the credit card that they have. It was between Starwood and Hyatt for us in terms of which was going to be our main property and we went with Hyatt for that reason.
The lower level Starwood properties are not all that great; Sheratons are hit or miss and the new Alofts are usually anything from a glorified motel or hostel to a low grade hotel. For that reason, I go to Marriott properties when there isn't a Westin nearby. Maybe I'll check out Hyatt in terms of their lower level places and points system to see if it's worth switching from Marriott.
Good summary article on the best credit cards for travel rewards right now: http://thepointsguy.com/2014/01/top...ewards/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
I've been doing some research on the best credit cards for my situation recently, and I'm majorly considering adding that Chase Sapphire Preferred at some point down the line. For now I'm hanging on to my Delta card, because I'm about 95% sure I'm going to get my flight to #TheKing for free on points within the next month, but after that I will be seriously considering it. Read the Points Guy before as well, amazing the stuff he gets for free.
Also considering adding a Capital One Quicksilver for my "other" credit card (in addition to my Delta Amex) very soon, since it has no foreign fees, not everybody takes Amex (especially outside the US), and my Wells Fargo card sucks super hard (it was my first credit card). Anybody have this one, or have a better recommendation?
Yeah the sapphire is an awesome card and the one I was getting til the SW deal popped up...now might wait a bit before getting that one too
Sapphire points are flying me to Orlando twice this summer for THP events!
Yeah I got 3 flights with the SW card right now and not sure where I'm flying lol
That's sweet dude. This will be the third free flight the Delta card has gotten me as well, so pretty solid!

I'm pretty sure I can squeeze three flights out of my SW points; and a fourth with my Sapphire points. Makes for an awesome THP year.Yeah I got 3 flights with the SW card right now and not sure where I'm flying lol
Yeah I also have the delta Amex which was a necessity when I lived in cincy since it was a hub...not so much anymore, have had a few flights free, a few I've used partial credit towards and a companion ticket. 2014 is probably my last year with it.
Nice Cookie. Question for you. And just from an outsiders perspective. Would you have been better going to with 2 airlines cards and one hotel card rather than 3 airlines cards?
Gotcha. Makes sense. FWIW, if you decide to go that route, Chase will be happy to switch your card (SW) to another offering. Amex will not, but Citi might.
I'll let JB answer this specifically, but I just opened a Sapphire card, and the documentation included that mentioned this maneuvering of credit line between cards said nothing about credit pulls (that I remember anyway).JB,
If was was to "slide" some of my credit line on the SW card over to another chase product, will they do another pull on my credit?
