Hyatt Hotels Corporation's affiliate has entered into a franchise agreement with JUEL Hospitality Limited, part of the JUEL Group, to develop the 160-room Hyatt Centric Malta. The hotel is expected to open in early 2024, marking the second Hyatt-branded property in Malta, joining Hyatt Regency Malta in the heart of St Julian’s.
“The Hyatt Centric brand is the go-to brand for today’s modern travellers looking to stay in the heart of the action, and we believe it will appeal to a variety of guests and locals alike who are seeking to explore this year-round leisure destination,” said Briana Swift, director of development, Hyatt. “We’re excited to expand our European brand presence in the lifestyle space and look forward to working with JUEL Hospitality to deliver a hotel that captures the distinctive spirit of this lively tourist destination.”
Hyatt Centric Malta will be centrally located, within walking distance to the bay and 20 minutes from Valletta, a UNESCO World Heritage Centre.
In addition to offering on-site dining facilities, a rooftop terrace, an indoor and outdoor pool, and a fitness centre, Hyatt Centric Malta will also incorporate over 400m2 of flexible meeting space across two well-appointed rooms.
“Aligning with Malta’s tourism goals of offering exceptional new lodging options for travellers looking to explore the island’s attractions, we are committed to developing Hyatt Centric Malta with a unique and authentic design that features traditional Maltese elements,” shared Albert Galea, representative of JUEL Group.
Hyatt Centric Malta will join existing European properties in the brand portfolio, including Hyatt Centric The Liberties Dublin, Hyatt Centric Milan Centrale, Hyatt Centric Murano Venice, Hyatt Centric Gran Via Madrid, Hyatt Centric Levent Istanbul, and Hyatt Centric Cambridge.
