Status Matching World of Hyatt To Radisson Gold

First, you’re going to need to sign up Radisson Rewards if you haven’t already. Once a member (new members will be granted their base level Club status) login to your account and note down your Radisson Rewards number. You’ll need this to complete the status match.

Next, login to your World of Hyatt account and screenshot your Hyatt Explorist or Globalist status. That, and your Radisson Rewards number, are all you need to complete the match.

Before you match, be aware that you can only status match to Radisson Gold once. Once matched, you’ll retain your status for the remainder of the current calendar year and then until the end of the Radisson Rewards loyalty program year (ending February 28th/29th).

For example, if you were to complete the match in mid-March 2022, you’d remain a Radisson Gold member until the end of February 2023. That’s why it’s best to match at the beginning of any given calendar year.

If you want to retain your Radisson status after the end of the program year, you’ll need to earn it in the usual way, through stays or nights. Radisson Gold status usually requires 30 nights or 20 stays.

Radisson don’t have a dedicated status match page. Instead, you need to send an email to statusmatch@radissonhotels.com. You can use the email template below.
