American hotel chain Hyatt Hotels & Resorts plans to open up a property in Udaipur in 2020. This is part of its grand plan of launching 14 new properties in the country over next two years.

Hyatt Hotels & Resorts plans to launch new hotels in Udaipur, Kochi, Bengaluru, Gurgaon, Thrissur, Kochi, Jaipur, Vadodara and Dharamshala. The plan is to have 2100 rooms in these 14 properties.

Udaipur property is planned to have 115 rooms and will open up next year. This years plan includes launching a 442 room Grand Hyatt Gurgaon, 100 room Hyatt regency in Kochi and 89 room hill resort in Dharamshala.

Hyatt currently has 7000 rooms in 30 hotels and the plan is to jackup this number by 30% over next two years.

“India is one of our top three global growth markets and our growth will only gain momentum. In the primary markets, there are brand gaps. We would like to fill those. We would like to ride the wave of urbanisation and get into emerging business locations and expand our footprint in leisure and cultural destinations. The 14 hotels fulfil all these parameters to an extent,” said Dhruva Rathore, VP, development, at Hyatt Hotels & Resorts India.
