CHICAGO—Hyatt Hotels Corporation shared Hyatt’s development pipeline of more than 35 planned luxury hotels and resorts globally through 2025 across the Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt, Miraval, Alila, Andaz, Thompson Hotels, and The Unbound Collection by Hyatt brands, as well as Inclusive Collection brands Zoëtry Wellness & Spa Resorts and Dreams Resorts & Spas.

Hyatt doubled the number of luxury rooms, tripled the number of resort rooms, and quadrupled the number of lifestyle rooms in five years. With 70 percent of its rooms categorized as luxury and upper upscale, the Hyatt portfolio has grown to meet increased demands for luxury and resort accommodations.

At large, travel and tourism are expected to increase by approximately 12 percent of global GDP by 2033 according to a recent World Travel & Tourism Council report. In turn, Hyatt’s luxury portfolio is expanding to meet that demand in international markets. This includes the debut of Park Hyatt hotels in the United Kingdom, Mexico, and Malaysia; the Thompson Hotel brand’s expansion in Europe with the first properties in Austria and Italy; the Andaz brand’s growth in the Americas with its first hotel in the Caribbean; The Unbound Collection by Hyatt brand’s first property in India; and in Portugal with the planned openings of Andaz Lisbon and Dreams Madeira Resort, Spa & Marina.

“The upcoming addition of these new hotels and resorts across our global luxury portfolio in sought-after destinations where travelers want to go most reinforces our leadership in this space,” said Mark Vondrasek, chief commercial officer, Hyatt. “Our continued, purposeful growth in the year ahead will follow an insight-led approach, focused on listening to our guests, customers, and World of Hyatt members and their evolving travel needs such as a growing desire for immersive and distinct experiences that prioritize wellbeing.”

A recent Ipsos report found that across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, common factors driving the travel decision-making process are the availability of wellbeing offerings and the opportunity for new experiences. Additionally, Hyatt has found that worldly travelers are seeking luxury hotels that value the purpose of their stay and plan around their needs. In turn, Hyatt wellbeing offerings include:

  • A continued commitment to sleep
  • New experiences focused on transformative travel
  • Preference for privatization (as a form of self-care)
  • Immersive spas
  • More options through the recently launched Wellbeing Collective

“Hyatt’s luxury growth strategy is purposefully ambitious and in the coming years, we will continue to grow with intent through a focus on key leisure destinations, and top-tier brands’ ability to personalize experiences for each guest, member, and client, through care,” said Heidi Kunkel, senior vice president commercial services, EAME. “We value our relationship with travel advisors and look to work together on finding new ways to advance care for them and their clients through the transformative growth of our luxury offerings and evolving World of Hyatt benefits.”
