Hyatt Hotels Corporation has plans to achieve milestone of nearly doubling its properties in India to 100 hotels over the next five to six years. The company is also actively exploring opportunities to introduce additional global brands from Hyatt's portfolio to India, led by the growing demand for high-quality hospitality, and a demand for luxury and wellness experiences.
At present, Hyatt Hotels has 52 hotels in Southwest Asia (50 in India and two in Nepal) across nine distinct brands and already crossed the 10,000 keys milestone. Recently, Hyatt launched the 'Grand Showroom' at the Grand Hyatt Mumbai, to cater to the 'growing demand for hyper-personalised experiences'. Over the next five years, it will strengthen its presence, driven by a strategy centred on loyalty, luxury, leisure, lifestyle, and wellness (LLLLW).
The Hyatt Place brand has entered two new locations, with Hyatt Place Aurangabad and Hyatt Place Haridwar, and is expected to open soon in a new country with Hyatt Place Dhaka Uttara (Bangladesh). The plan also includes destinations like Bhopal, to bring another new brand, The Unbound Collection, in 2025.
"The Hyatt Regency brand, which is a key growth driver for Hyatt in the region, will enter a new destination with the slated openings of Hyatt Regency Kasauli and Hyatt Regency Ghaziabad", as stated by Managing Director, India & Southwest Asia, Sunjae Sharma.
