Booking tips and upgrades for a honeymoon stay
Consider the Upper Stories paid upgrade if you want private check-in, access to a third-floor lounge, and complimentary breakfast and evening snacks — it’s an add-on rather than a separate tower. Upgrades and early check-in/late check-out may incur fees and are subject to availability; Hyatt elite members may have different privileges.
If a quieter room is important, request a high floor and specify a Park View or High Floor, Lounge room when booking. For extra in-room flexibility (separate sleeping space or space for a small celebration), choose Studio Suite, with Sofa bed or the Studio Suite (High Floor, Lounge).
- Ask about Upper Stories access at booking for private check-in and lounge benefits
- Request a high-floor room for better views and less street noise
- Book spa treatments and restaurant reservations before arrival, especially on weekends

| Upper Stories | Paid top-floor upgrade with private check-in, 3rd-floor lounge, breakfast/snacks |
| Studio Suite, with Sofa bed | King bed plus a double sofa bed for separate sleeping or seating |
