Hyatt Brand to Return to Adelaide, Australia in 2023 with New-Built Hyatt Regency Adelaide
A Hyatt affiliate has entered into a management agreement with CES Pirie Hotel (SA) Pty Ltd., an entity wholly owned by Chip Eng Seng Corporation Limited, to develop a new Hyatt Regency in Adelaide. This brand new 295-room property will mark the return of a Hyatt-branded hotel to operate in Adelaide as well as the brand's expansion across Australia. With construction planned to commence in 2020, the Hyatt Regency Adelaide is slated to open in early 2023.
The Hyatt Regency brand offers a stress-free environment for event, leisure and business travelers alike to enjoy a productive and energized experience. Guests can enjoy a seamless and intuitive service alongside refreshing food and beverage concepts and flexible spaces suited for work, collaboration or relaxation. Hyatt Regency Adelaide will be located on Pirie Street in the center of the city’s central business district, giving guests unparalleled access to major corporate and government offices as well as shopping and dining venues. When completed, the hotel will offer facilities including more than 8,000 square feet (750 square meters) of event space, a Market Café, a Regency Club, swimming pool, fitness facilities and a rooftop bar.
RYSE, Autograph Collection delivers a polished and thoughtfully curated stay right in the heart of Hongdae, Seoul’s most youthful and energetic district. The hotel blends boutique charm with brand-level consistency, offering stylish rooms, standout design, and a strong sense of place that reflects the creative pulse of the neighbourhood.
The Grand Hyatt Guangzhou delivers a solid and well-rounded stay experience that represents exceptional value, especially when compared to flashier alternatives in the area like the W Guangzhou. From the spacious Grand Premium Suite with panoramic city views to the consistently high-quality breakfast at The Market Café, the hotel balances comfort, practicality, and service well. While the club lounge is functional but unremarkable in terms of F&B, access to it—along with suite upgrades and late check-out—adds meaningful benefits for Globalist members.
The Hôtel Des Arts Saigon - MGallery in Ho Chi Minh City is probably the best Accor property in the city with a great club lounge and breakfast experience for elite members of the ALL loyalty program.
Swissôtel The Stamford offers stunning views of Marina Bay and a prime City Hall location, making it an excellent choice for international visitors. While the L65 Lounge serves substantial evening food, the limited alcohol selection might not suit all guests, but the hotel is still a great option for those wanting to experience Singapore’s iconic sights.
TRIBE Living Bangkok Sukhumvit 39 is a great value choice for budget-conscious travelers but its slightly longer walk from Phrom Phong BTS Station may make it less convenient compared to more accessible (but pricier) options in the area.
Used one of my Nightly Upgrade Awards (NUAs) at the W Osaka to secure a beautiful Marvelous Suite. The hotel is located on Midosuki Boulevard and within walking distance to Shinsaibashi and Dotonbori.
The Park Hyatt Auckland is quite possibly the nicest luxury hotel in Auckland with stunning rooms and suites, but the soft product needs some work.
While the compact rooms may not be ideal for those traveling with children, the Mercure Singapore Bugis is an excellent choice for travelers seeking an affordable and conveniently located hotel in Singapore, thanks to its prime location and competitive room rates.
The Le Méridien Seoul, Myeongdong has probably the best location in Seoul with a decent Club Lounge experience for elite members.
SO/ Auckland brings a bold, fashion-forward twist to the city’s hotel scene, offering a vibrant stay right in the heart of Auckland’s CBD. With its comfortable rooms, strong design identity, and convenient location near Britomart and the waterfront, the hotel delivers a solid option for travellers who want to be close to the action. Those with ALL Platinum status or higher will find the added benefits valuable, but for other travellers, it’s worth weighing up the price against the wider hotel options in the city.
