“Las Vegas is a perennial favorite for World of Hyatt members
and our group business customers are requesting rooms at a higher
volume than pre-pandemic due to the world-class entertainment and
unique experiences offered by this dynamic destination,” said Mark
Vondrasek, Chief Commercial Officer, Hyatt. “The licensing
agreement with The Venetian Resort Las Vegas adds 7,000 rooms and
2.25 million square feet of meeting space, inviting Hyatt's loyalty
members and valued customers to have even more options to earn and
redeem loyalty points when visiting Las Vegas.”
The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, home to two luxury hotels – The
Venetian and The Palazzo – is the only all-suite resort on the Las
Vegas Strip. Combining the romance of Venice with the vibrant
energy of Las Vegas, this iconic destination offers an experience
that delights all the senses. Whether strolling along picturesque
canals, enjoying a gondola ride, savoring culinary masterpieces
crafted by some of the most celebrated chefs and restaurants on the
Strip or experiencing world-class entertainment, including the
revolutionary Sphere at The Venetian, World of Hyatt members will
soon be able to earn and redeem points at this extraordinary
resort.
"Our legendary resort continues to lead the way on the Strip,
setting the benchmark for innovation, luxury, and unforgettable
guest experiences," said Patrick Nichols, President and Chief
Executive Officer of The Venetian Resort Las Vegas. "From unveiling
reimagined suites and collaborating with world-renowned chefs to
delivering unparalleled entertainment, we have consistently stayed
at the forefront of this ever-evolving destination. As we embrace a
new era for The Venetian Resort, this relationship enables us to
expand our reach and connect with new audiences.”
Following a transformative $1.5 billion reinvestment, The
Venetian’s suites – the largest on the Las Vegas Strip – have been
reimagined with designs inspired by the ornate costumes of the
Venetian Carnival. Guests can drift along the Grand Canal aboard an
iconic gondola, immersing themselves in the romance of Venice,
Italy’s “Floating City.” At The Venetian, the charm of Venice meets
the excitement of Las Vegas, while The Palazzo offers a
contemporary take on luxury with sleek and modern sophistication.
Together, these iconic properties offer an extraordinary getaway,
complemented by award-winning dining from culinary legends like
Wolfgang Puck, Thomas Keller, and Tetsuya Wakuda. A stay at The
Venetian isn’t just a visit – it’s a feast for the senses.
As part of this long-term licensing agreement, World of Hyatt
will, in the future, offer elite Venetian Rewards members benefits
within World of Hyatt. Additionally, in the near future, these two
hospitality powerhouses will work together in the MICE (meetings,
incentives, conferences, and exhibitions) and convention space to
also complement each other’s strengths in group business.
Stay tuned for additional information on when and how The
Venetian Resort will participate in World of Hyatt.
