Hyatt Centric Victoria Harbour Hong Kong

Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) announced today that a Hyatt affiliate has entered into an agreement with an affiliate of Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited to rebrand the 665-room Hotel VIC on the Harbour to Hyatt Centric Victoria Harbour Hong Kong by the third quarter of 2019. This will be the first Hyatt Centric hotel in the Greater China region, joining the brand's inaugural property in Asia, Hyatt Centric Ginza Tokyo which opened in 2018.

Tailored for socially connected guests seeking shareable moments, the hotel's social areas and food and beverage concepts were designed by Hong Kong-based architect and interior designer, Andre Fu while the 665 harbor-view guestrooms feature designs from Hirsch Bedner Associates. Spread across two towers, the property features an all-day dining concept, specialty restaurant and bar, bakery, gym, and an outdoor swimming pool on the top floor. Connected to the Harbour North shopping complex which offers many boutique restaurants, shops and an entertainment center, the hotel is part of a large-scale waterfront integrated development consisting of a hotel, retail shops, serviced apartments, luxury apartments and a waterfront promenade. The development is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2019.

Following the brand ethos to connect guests to the heart of the action so they never miss a moment of adventure, the hotel is located in the dynamic North Point district on the eastern side of the Hong Kong Island. Enjoying a prime waterfront location with panoramic views of the Victoria Harbour, the hotel is also within walking distance from the North Point MTR Station and the North Point Ferry Pier which both provide a convenient cross-harbor commute. The newly opened Central-Wanchai Bypass reduces the travel time to the city's center to less than 10 minutes, giving guests easy access to Hong Kong's financial district. The hotel is also near the Causeway Bay and Quarry Bay precincts known for their vibrant culinary, entertainment and art scenes. A passionately engaged team will be on hand to provide local, expert recommendations across the city.
