When was the hyatt hotel and resort founded?Hyatt Corporation opened its first hotel on September 27, 1957. Hyatt's first property at Los Angeles International Airport was originally named Hyatt House. The owner of Hyatt House was a local entrepreneur by the name of Hyatt R. von Dehn. Hyatt hotels expanded aggressively along the West Coast during the next decade. However, it wasn't until 1967, when Hyatt Corporation opened the world's first atrium hotel that the Hyatt庐 name became known worldwide. The hotel's 21-story atrium tower lobby and dramatic departure from traditional hotel architecture changed the course of the lodging industry. The challenge to hotel architects was no longer to eliminate extra space; rather, to create grand, wide-open public spaces.
By 1969, there were 13 Hyatt庐 hotels in the United States. That year, a subsidiary of the newly formed Hyatt International Corporation opened the first international hotel, the Hyatt Regency Hong Kong.
Hyatt Regency庐 hotels are the core brand of Hyatt Hotels & Resorts庐, offering guests opportunities to broaden their horizons and rejuvenate. Lobbies and rooms are designed to reflect the best of the local cultures, the food and beverage outlets are inventive, and exceptional technology, meeting, and fitness facilities are available.
The Grand Hyatt庐 and Park Hyatt庐 brands were introduced in 1980 to further identify and market the diverse types of Hyatt Hotels & Resorts庐 worldwide. Grand Hyatt庐 hotels serve culturally rich destinations that attract leisure and business travelers as well as large-scale meetings and conventions. The hotels, reflecting a grand scale and refinement, include features such as state-of-the-art technology, sophisticated business and leisure facilities, banquet and conference facilities of world-class standard, and specialized programs that cater to discriminating business and vacation guests.
Park Hyatt庐 hotels are the company's smaller, luxury hotels designed to cater to the discriminating individual traveler seeking the privacy, personalized service and elegance of a small European hotel. They offer a sense of sanctuary and luxury. In addition to state-of-the-art technology, Park Hyatt庐 hotels offer exceptional food and beverage facilities, intimate, understated surroundings, and 24-hour personalized service.
Since the opening of Hyatt Regency Maui in 1980, Hyatt Hotels & Resorts庐 has become known as a leader in the creation and operation of dramatic luxury resorts as well. These include, for example, Hyatt Regency Kauai in Hawaii; Hyatt Regency La Manga in southern Spain; Bali Hyatt and Grand Hyatt Bali in Indonesia; Hyatt Regency Cheju on the southern coast of Korea; Hyatt Regency Sanctuary Cove and Hyatt Regency Coolum Spa & Resort in Australia's Queensland state; Hyatt Regency Guam in Micronesia; Hyatt Regency Thessaloniki in Greece, Hyatt Regency Kathmandu, Nepal, and Hyatt Regency Hua Hin in Thailand.
