Hyatt to Expand Caption, Destination and Thompson Hotels Brands to Asia Pacific

(25 Jan 2022)  Hyatt has unveiled plans to expand its presence in the Asia Pacific region with the introduction of its Caption by Hyatt, Destination by Hyatt and Thompson Hotels brands.

The first Caption by Hyatt hotel in Asia Pacific is expected to open in 2022 in Shanghai's Zhongshan Park business district. The hotel will feature self-activated experiences, shared social space, all-day dining and sustainable operations.

Hyatt says the Caption brand is 'where lifestyle meets self-service'.

Grand Resort Qingchengshan is expected to be the first Destination by Hyatt hotel in Asia Pacific in 2022, with plans for an additional Destination by Hyatt hotel in Dalian.

The first Thompson Hotels property in Asia Pacific will make its debut in 2023 at the Expo Park by Huangpu River in Pudong District, Shanghai, where it will offer a sophisticated and unique hotel option for leisure travelers and trade show attendees.

"China has always been a strategic focus for Hyatt," said Stephen Ho, President - Growth and Operations, Asia Pacific. "With a growing middle class and continued upgrade in consumption, the tourism economy in the Greater China region continues to grow with new opportunities and vitality and plays an important role in the recovery of the entire Asia Pacific hotel industry. We very much look forward to introducing these three uniquely styled hotel brands to the China market as we expand the footprint of our luxury and lifestyle brands to provide unique and customized Hyatt experiences to more guests."
