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.

Hyatt Place Bangkok Sukhumvit 1 offers a fresh, modern stay in a quieter pocket of Sukhumvit.
