Hyatt Place Dubai/Wasl District opened late last month as the 10th Hyatt property in the United Arab Emirates. The casual, contemporary, yet affordable, Hyatt Place brand provides a stylish, seamless experience for busy guests.

Guests enjoy more than 200 guestrooms, including 10 suites; free WiFi and remote printing; a grab ’n go market; kitchen and café for fresh breakfast and multi-cuisine lunch and dinner; a coffee to beverages bar; a 24-hour fitness center; a rooftop pool; and ample meeting and event space

“We look forward to hosting guests both local and international alike as we introduce them to the modern comforts of a Hyatt Place property,” said Fathi Khogaly, general manager, Hyatt Place Dubai/Wasl District. “The hotel will provide travelers with a unique stay through the design, amenities and warm hospitality offered by the entire team.”

“The decision to introduce a third Hyatt Place property stems from its seamless integration into the city’s contemporary appeal, prioritizing consistent development,” added Kurt Straub, vice president of operations, Middle East, Africa and South West Asia, Hyatt. “We’re seeing an increased guest demand for our select service portfolio and as such are meeting these demands across the United Arab Emirates and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. We plan to continue to expand our brand presence across the Middle East, as part of our pipeline of development for the region.”
