According to data from Savills, luxury demand is expected to surge over the next three years. The leading commercial, residential and rural real estate service provider reveals that from 2023 to 2028 the segment is forecasted to expand by over 50%. Like many global hospitality players, Hyatt Hotels is looking to capitalise on this growth with new properties opening throughout 2025.
The hospitality brand is in a prime position to further establish its footprint in the luxe segment. Presently about 70% of Hyatt’s rooms are categorised as luxury and upper upscale. However, Hyatt is looking to cement its status in the industry with new luxury and lifestyle hotels set to open in 2025 and 2026.
Room For Growth
The Andaz One Bangkok is expected to open later this year.
Since 2017, Hyatt has been growing its portfolio in the lifestyle hotel segment by quintupling its lifestyle rooms. Last year it also marked significant growth with 28 lifestyle hotels. “2024 has been a strong year with luxury and lifestyle segments driving this success, as shown by the exceptional performance of our hotels and the excitement around openings like Park Hyatt London River Thames and Park Hyatt Marrakech,” says Javier Águila, Group President, EAME, Hyatt.
“Our future in these highly sought-after segments looks brighter than ever, thanks to recent acquisitions like Mr & Mrs Smith and Standard International, as well as our commitment to building dedicated teams and leveraging specialised talent to enhance our luxury and lifestyle offerings.”
Hyatt’s already impressive portfolio will expand significantly with over 50 luxury and lifestyle hotels expected to open globally over the next two years. Amongst the new properties slated to open in 2025 that will join the Hyatt family is Miraval the Red Sea. Debuting later this year, the project marks the Miraval brand’s international debut and will boast one of the largest spas in the destination.
Asian Expansion
The Alila brand comes to Shanghai in 2025.
Other highly anticipated luxury and lifestyle Hyatt openings over the next two years include the likes of Park Hyatt Johannesburg, as well the highly anticipated Andaz Miami Beach and Andaz Gold Coast. These projects will join the list of Hyatt openings in the luxury and lifestyle segments, such as Park Hyatt London River Thames, Alila Shanghai as Greater China’s first urban resort-style Alila hotel, The Standard, Singapore and The StandardX, Bangkok.
Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur is nestled in Merdeka 118.
Asia continues to be a key focal point for Hyatt with new hotels looking to open their doors in 2025. On the cards are Alila Dongao Island, China, Andaz One Bangkok, Thompson Shanghai and Keraton at the Plaza, Jakarta under Hyatt’s Unbound Collection. There are also several properties opening under the Park Hyatt umbrella which includes hotels in Taipei, Phu Quoc and Kuala Lumpur.
Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur will no doubt be a key addition to the brand’s portfolio when it opens this year. Currently accepting reservations from September 2025, the property occupies the top floors of Merdeka 118, offering unparalleled views of the capital city.
