Hyatt’s boundless portfolio – which also includes the Andaz and
Caption by Hyatt hotel brands – provides guests opportunities to
immerse themselves in distinctive experiences reflective of local
culture. Rather than serving as a backdrop to where things happen,
hotels in Hyatt’s boundless portfolio are extensions of their
surrounding neighborhoods with best-in-class offerings that deliver
compelling experiences designed to excite and inspire.
“By thoughtfully growing our lifestyle brands, we are satisfying
the desires of those global travelers who are craving rich,
meaningful and authentic experiences that offer new perspectives
and are culturally impactful,” said Crystal Vinisse Thomas, Hyatt’s
global brand leader, lifestyle and luxury. “Our strategy of growing
with intent is paying off as we continue to open and develop new
properties within the boundless portfolio throughout the Americas,
and we look forward to continuing to build on our commitment to
deliver the most innovative and reimagined experiences for today’s
guests as they begin to travel again.”
The hallmark of Alila hotels is the combination of breathtaking
architecture and luxury in immersive locations, set apart by an
unprecedented level of private space, crafted artisanship,
personalized interactions, and bespoke journeys. Alila means
“Surprise” in Sanskrit, which suitably describes the refreshing
character of the luxury properties. Alila hotels support
sustainable tourism in many ways, such as working to adopt
EarthCheck operating standards, integrating the natural, physical
and cultural elements of their environments.
The Hyatt Centric brand offers full-service lifestyle hotels
located in prime destinations around the world and is one of
Hyatt's fastest growing lifestyle brands. Hyatt Centric hotels help
