A Hyatt affiliate has entered into a management agreement with an affiliate of Huayuan Property Co., Ltd for a Grand Hyatt hotel in Changsha, Hunan Province in central China.
Situated on the upper floors of an 879-foot-high skyscraper, the hotel will boast unobstructed views of the city and is expected to become a city landmark. The hotel will be part of the Central- a mega mixed-use complex that will incorporate high-end residential buildings, office spaces, and luxury shopping facilities. Expected to create over 500 new jobs, the 324-room hotel will feature several restaurants and bars, multi-purpose meeting and banquet facilities, a fitness center, a pool and a spa.
“Changsha has established itself as a major hub for global business and entertainment, and we are honored to have the opportunity to bring the Grand Hyatt brand to such a great city,” says Mark Hoplamazian, president and CEO of Hyatt Hotels Corporation. “Throughout our 40 years in China, we have showed thousands of guests how our associates can meet and exceed their needs, and we look forward to bringing Hyatt’s signature authentic hospitality to such a dynamic and historic city.”
