Hyatt Poised for Worldwide Expansion in 2023

Hyatt is positioned for continued growth in 2023 and beyond with a pipeline of approximately 117,000 rooms worldwide as of year-end 2022. Notably, nearly one in four pipeline properties is classified as a lifestyle hotel, representing 10 percent of the existing base of hotels, further strengthening Hyatt’s leadership position in the luxury, lifestyle and leisure segments. The significant growth of these properties expands the guest experiences that can further drive World of Hyatt loyalty penetration across the Hyatt portfolio.

A notable driver of this growth is the planned asset-light acquisition of Dream Hotel Group’s lifestyle hotel brand and management platform, which is expected to add established lifestyle hotel brands—including Dream Hotels, Unscripted Hotels and The Chatwal—to its portfolio. Dream Hotel Group properties are known for their experiential hospitality including hotspot restaurants and nightlife venues built on unconventional programming and brand collaborations. The acquisition will welcome over 600 new colleagues into the Hyatt family and extend its brand footprint in destinations including Nashville, Hollywood, Las Vegas, South Beach, Saint Lucia, Doha and New York City. It will also mark the entrance of Hyatt brands into markets such as the Catskills in New York and Valle de Guadalupe in Mexico.

Additionally, the Caption by Hyatt brand is poised for significant growth following the successful opening of Caption by Hyatt Beale Street Memphis in 2022. The brand is expected to grow its presence in Tennessee with Caption by Hyatt Chattanooga (2024), and enter California with both Caption by Hyatt, and Caption by Hyatt Sacramento (2026). The Caption by Hyatt brand is expanding internationally with previously announced properties expected to open in China and Japan in 2023, Vietnam in 2025 and Sydney in the coming years.

The Park Hyatt brand is set to re-establish its presence in South Africa with Park Hyatt Johannesburg in late 2023 and make its entrance to Morocco with Park Hyatt Marrakech. It will also return to London with Park Hyatt London River Thames and expand in the Asia Pacific region with Park Hyatt Taipei (Taiwan), Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and Park Hyatt Phu Quoc (Vietnam) in 2024.

This year, the Andaz brand will expand into new markets with Andaz Doha in Qatar; Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach in Thailand; the recently opened Andaz Mexico City Condesa; Andaz Macau, with over 700 rooms and suites, set within Galaxy International Convention Center; and Andaz Nanjing Hexi in Greater China.

Hyatt’s Boundless Collection and Independent Collection feature a pipeline of expected openings in 2023 and 2024 including:

  • Thompson Palm Springs and Thompson Houston
  • Hyatt Centric Congress Avenue Austin, Hyatt Centric Zhongshan Park Shanghai and Hyatt Centric Xi’an Gaoxin
  • The debut of the Destination by Hyatt brand in Florida with the 18-hole golf resort Banyan Cay Resort & Golf in West Palm Beach, and in Asia Pacific with The Grand Resort in Qingchengshan, China
  • The debut of the JdV by Hyatt brand in Rhode Island, with The Pell, a coastal hotel located in the middle of Aquidneck Island in Middletown; and in Goa with the opening of Ronil, set on 1.6 acres of coastal land in Baga, India
  • NUMU Boutique Hotel, part of The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

Hyatt offers one of the largest portfolios of luxury all-inclusive resorts in the world including a healthy pipeline of expected openings in 2023 spearheaded by growth across Bulgaria’s popular Black Sea destinations and the recent launch of the all-inclusive Secrets Impression Resorts & Spas. This intimate line of boutique, adults-only havens offers personalized experiences, butler service and curated gastronomy. While Secrets Impression Moxché Playa del Carmen opened in December 2022, its second property, Secrets Impression Isla Mujeres is set to debut later this year.

With over 400 Hyatt Place and nearly 130 Hyatt House properties in top travel destinations across the globe, Hyatt’s select service brands continue to extend their customer base to attract leisure travelers and families.

Over the coming years, more Hyatt Place and Hyatt House properties are expected to debut in key leisure hotspots and business travel destinations in the U.S. and Canada, such as Hyatt House Traverse City (Michigan), Hyatt House Bozeman (Montana), Hyatt Place Cape Canaveral (Florida), Hyatt House Roseville (California), Hyatt Place Toronto – Downtown/Jarvis Street (Ontario) and Hyatt Place Toronto/Mississauga Centre (Ontario). The brands are also expected to make their international market entries in Guyana and Estonia.
