Hyatt Hotels is on a mission to elevate luxury travel, and they’re doing it in a big way. The company has announced plans to expand its portfolio with over 20 new properties across the United States, Canada, Mexico, Latin America, and the Caribbean by 2025. This strategic growth will see Hyatt extend its reach into new regional markets, giving them more opportunities to serve guests and World of Hyatt members with a wider range of destinations and stays.
Hyatt’s commitment to luxury is evident in their recent achievements. Since 2017, they’ve doubled their number of luxury rooms, tripled their resort rooms, and multiplied their lifestyle rooms by five globally. This rapid expansion has cemented Hyatt as the leader in luxury-branded rooms within resort destinations worldwide. They’ve become synonymous with high-end, immersive travel experiences.
The company’s commitment to expanding its luxury portfolio is driven by strong consumer demand. According to their Mid-Year 2024 Consumer Sentiment and Travel Expectations Report, 88% of consumers express a strong desire to travel for leisure. Hyatt is perfectly positioned to capitalize on this trend.
Looking ahead, Hyatt is set to further enhance its lifestyle offerings through the planned acquisition of Standard International. This acquisition will integrate popular lifestyle brands like The Standard and Bunkhouse Hotels into Hyatt’s portfolio, bringing with it iconic dining and nightlife venues such as The Boom Boom Room, The Standard Grill, and Le Bain. As part of this integration, Hyatt will incorporate Standard International properties into its World of Hyatt loyalty program, providing even more options for its 48 million members.

The program also boasts a range of holistic wellness collaborations, including partnerships with Peloton, Headspace, MasterClass, and Future.
