First of all, I came here after 3 days at the Cosmopolitan. A huge step down I think we can all agree. Cosmo gives you a trip to the best buffet in Vegas for breakfast, Hyatt gives you cold cereal fruit and not very good coffee. Cosmo has wifi that works, Hyatt does not. Very slow if at all.
The staff was fine, but management needs to get in the habit of walking the property and finding and fixing problems. Outside I saw a drip sprinkler do an excellent job of watering the parking lot. Lots of those little things to be corrected. In the bathtub, the spigot could not make up its mind to be show or tub fill and noisily let me know! And the design makes the room seem cramped. Windows were dirty also.
I remember back in the 80's when the Hyatt name represented the best of hotel in this country. Sadly, that no longer seems the case.
As far as other reviews, somebody mentioned requesting a strip view, that's not possible for a place being between Swenson and Paradise. You can see the tops of strip hotels I suppose, but I would not call that a strip view.
Also, no taxis? Just about every cab going to or from the airport uses Paradise and Swenson. If you can't get an empty one to find you here, well, I have no response. Did you ask the front desk for help? In a worst case, just walk over to Hard Rock, they always have cabs, and the liquor store across the street ALWAYS has limo drivers around because it gives away free coffee, and they will take you anywhere, believe me.
In sum, if it's a business trip, it's ok. If you are coming for the "vegas experience" no way. VERY convenient for the ride back to the airport however, about as close as you can get and I did enjoy watching the planes land from my room! Fear not the noise of that too, because they stop around ten.

Thank you for taking time to share your feedback on the hotel. Hyatt Place Brand isn't created to compete with a Strip Resort so we can understand there would be a difference in expections. We do appreciate you bringing to our attention several items that we have shared with our Management Team to address. We are also excited to share that later this year we will be expanding our breakfast to a hot breakfast buffet. We do have a wing that on higher floors offer a nice Strip View. Many guests appreciate that option that want to be away from the strip but yet get a taste. I hope next time you are in Vegas you give us the opportunity to be our guest again- feel free to contact me directly to assist you. Kind Regards- Jaylene Katt, Director of Sales
