Hyatt Expands Luxury and Lifestyle Portfolio in the Americas

Since 2017, Hyatt has doubled its number of luxury rooms, tripled its number of resort rooms, and quintupled its number of lifestyle rooms globally. This growth has given Hyatt the fastest-growing luxury portfolio.

Hyatt has already added properties in this segment in the Americas, and that will continue through 2025, with a total of 20 recent and planned openings across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Latin America and the Caribbean.
