Grand Hyatt Hotel Scheduled to Open in Bogota in 2015

Hyatt Hotels Corporation, which announced major expansion plans for Latin America in May, has entered into a management agreement with Bienes y Comercio, S.A. for a Grand Hyatt hotel in Bogota, Colombia.

Owned and constructed by Organización Luis Carlos Sarmiento Angulo, the hotel will be an integral part of the Ciudad Empresarial mixed-use project, which occupies a prime location in the area of Ciudad Salitre, close to Bogota's El Dorado International Airport.

The mixed-used project occupies approximately 925,000 square feet and is planned to have 18 office towers with an aggregate of over 6.5 million square feet of leasable area and more than 226,000 square feet of retail space that will include high-end shops, a cinema, food and beverage outlets, and meeting and conference space.

With an investment by Bienes y Comercio, S.A. of approximately $130 million, Grand Hyatt Bogota will offer 297 guestrooms, including 53 suites. Expected to open in early 2015, the hotel will feature two restaurants, a lobby lounge, a patisserie, and more than 24,000 square feet of meeting and event space, including a 10,800-square-foot ballroom. Additional hotel amenities include a fitness center, an indoor pool, and a spa.
