McKibbon Hospitality Adds Hyatt House Austin Downtown to Management Portfolio

AUSTIN, Texas—McKibbon Hospitality announced the latest addition to its management portfolio, Hyatt House Austin Downtown. The 190-room extended-stay property is located in Austin’s music district, offering access to several entertainment venues, local bars and eateries, and historic parks. The property has 136 apartment-style suites with fully equipped kitchens including a stovetop, fridge and freezer, microwave, and dishwasher, as well as separate dining and living spaces.

The new management contract establishes McKibbon’s presence in Texas with their fifth Hyatt House, a Hyatt brand focused on extended-stay accommodations. Amenities include breakfast served daily, valet parking service, a 24-hour fitness center, and workspace. The pool deck offers privacy and includes fire pits. Guests are invited to H Bar, the in-house bar and bistro, serving traditional U.S. fare alongside craft cocktails, or to stop by the first floor H Market for ingredients to make a recipe of their own.

“We couldn’t be more excited for the opportunity to support the Hyatt House Austin Downtown and the team of associates that bring the hotel to life,” said Bruce Baerwalde, president of McKibbon Hospitality. “We look forward to welcoming guests with the highest level of service and building a strong relationship with Austin’s vibrant community.”

The addition of Hyatt House Austin Downtown grows McKibbon’s overall management portfolio to 101 hotels with nearly 12,000 guestrooms throughout the United States.
