Hyatt's transformative growth continues with
planned acquisition of Dream Hotel Group, global expansion of
Caption by Hyatt brand and organic growth of Hyatt’s global
portfolio
Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) shared today that Hyatt is
positioned for continued transformative growth in 2023 and beyond
with a record 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 high-value properties in Hyatt’s
portfolio expands the compelling guest experiences that can further
drive World of Hyatt loyalty penetration across the Hyatt
portfolio.
A notable driver of this growth is the announced asset-light
acquisition of Dream Hotel Group’s lifestyle hotel brand and
management platform which is expected to bring established
lifestyle hotel brands – including Dream Hotels, Unscripted Hotels
and The Chatwal – into the Hyatt portfolio. Dream Hotel Group
properties are known for their experiential hospitality including
hotspot restaurants and nightlife venues built on strategic and
unconventional programming and brand collaborations, paired with
signature designs that balance substance with sizzle. The
acquisition will welcome more than 600 new colleagues into the
Hyatt family, bringing deep expertise in experiential hospitality
to Hyatt’s global portfolio of lifestyle offerings and extending
Hyatt’s brand footprint in strategic 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 – which combines the
design and comfort of an upscale, lifestyle-forward hotel with the
flexibility of a select-service property – 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 in
collaboration with 3H Group (expected for 2024) and enter
California with both Caption by Hyatt Roseville in collaboration
with LRE & Companies and American Hospitality Services, Inc.
and Caption by Hyatt Sacramento in collaboration with Presidio
Hotel Development LLC and 29th Street Capital (both expected for
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. Grounded
in caring for people and place and creating connections between
them, the Caption by Hyatt brand is committed to hiring diverse
talent, vendors, artisans, and suppliers – and celebrating the
diversity of people in the communities in which Caption by Hyatt
hotels are located.
“Through our intentional long-term growth strategy and by
working closely with owners, Hyatt boasts five years of
industry-leading organic net rooms growth,” said Jim Chu, executive
vice president, chief growth officer, Hyatt. “Owners want to work
with us because of our expertise, performance track record and
optimal positioning in the industry. We have global scale, but we
are nimble enough to create personal relationships, draw on our own
experiences and lead with empathy.”
