5/21/2012
 CHICAGO—Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced today that a Hyatt affiliate completed its previously announced acquisition of the 756-room Hotel Nikko Mexico from Japan-Mexico Hotel Investment Co., Ltd. for approximately $190 million. The hotel has been rebranded as Hyatt Regency Mexico City. Ramping up its expansion in Latin America, Hyatt also announced plans for eight Hyatt-branded hotels in Latin America, for a total of 12 Hyatt-branded hotels under development in Latin America. When these properties open, there will be a total of 20 Hyatt-branded hotels in the region.
Over the next three years, a Hyatt affiliate is expected to invest approximately $40 million to renovate Hyatt Regency Mexico City to strengthen the hotel’s competitive position.
“The introduction of Hyatt Regency Mexico City marks the first step in expanding the presence of Hyatt-branded hotels in Mexico and throughout Latin America,” said Steve Haggerty, global head of real estate and development for Hyatt Hotels Corporation, in an announcement. “Our substantial direct investment in acquiring this hotel, as well as our plans for 12 new properties in Latin America across our full-and select-service brands, underscores our commitment to becoming the most preferred hospitality brand by opening hotels in key locations where our guests are traveling.”
