San Diego Hyatt Plans Major Redo

The Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego announced plans for a renovation of guest rooms, meeting space, lounges, restaurants and public areas.

A designer is currently being selected, with work tentatively scheduled to begin in spring 2012, according to the hotel’s new owner, a subsidiary of Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc., which purchased the 1,625-room property in March 2011 for $570 million.

“The renovation will enhance the exceptional services and amenities that guests of the hotel have come to expect,” said John Schafer, vice president, managing director, Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego. “We are very appreciative of our owner’s commitment to Hyatt and are thrilled to have a long-term agreement to manage the hotel.”
