I’m looking to book one night (TH-F) at a NYC Hyatt group hotel in September and noticed that award (and cash) rates go up quite a bit starting in September, higher than the rest of July-Aug. Is this because of the NFL season? NYC travel less popular in summer? Booking timing on my end?

Lot of conferences / events happen in Sept - like the UN General Assembly.

It must be this since it’s a week and a half after the US open.

Thanks. It sounds like it may just be a seasonal uptick in business travel + other conferences. Relatedly, any recs on Hyatt-based hotels? I’d like to use points since it’s just 1 night and am looking at CPP, but no strong feelings (I don’t need to drop 35k on Andaz, but a decent breakfast would be nice).

Hyatt Centric Wall Street is usually a fair price and great spot for nearby food
