Hyatt plans to open more than 20 luxury hotels and resorts by the end of 2020, including properties under the Park Hyatt, Andaz, Alila, Grand Hyatt, Miraval and The Unbound Collection by Hyatt brands.
Hyatt reports The Unbound Collection by Hyatt brand is experiencing its strongest growth in Europe to date. Upcoming properties underneath the brand include Great Scotland Yard, set in a former London metropolitan police headquarters, and Hôtel du Palais Biarritz, set within Napoleon III’s former imperial residence.
The Park Hyatt brand celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2020. Four Park Hyatt hotels are expected to open by 2020 in Indonesia, Japan, China and New Zealand.
Alila properties are slated to open in Switzerland, Malaysia and Oman. Andaz properties are due to open in Dubai, Prague, Bali, Shenzhen, Xiamen and Palm Springs. Grand Hyatt properties are set to open in China, Kuwait, India, South Korea, Saudi Arabia and Tennessee.
“With our growth acceleration in the luxury segment, we will have the opportunity to care for more travelers around the globe through a range of differentiated high-end experiences,” said Mark Vondrasek, chief commercial officer, Hyatt. “We’re excited to expand into new markets and enhance the global footprint of our brands, giving our guests and members additional ways to connect with our luxury offerings in places where they want to be.”
“Across Europe, Africa, the Middle East, as well as Southwest Asia, luxury properties account for over a third (35 percent) of our portfolio,” said Peter Fulton, group president, Hyatt. “Europe in particular, with its unique and historic architecture, represents a natural home for The Unbound Collection by Hyatt brand, and as we expand with our lifestyle and independent brands, we are confident our new offerings will cater to high-end travelers who are seeking an unprecedented stay.”
