Hyatt Hotels Corporation and RJR Investments & Holdings Inc. yesterday formally announced that Atlantic Suites Hotel has joined the Hyatt portfolio as an affiliated hotel, marking the first Hyattlinked property in Guyana.
It had first been disclosed here by Pegasus Hotel Guyana on August 6th.
A release yesterday from the two entities said that in 2028, the existing Atlantic Suites Hotel is expected to be integrated with a newly constructed adjoining tower to create Hyatt Regency Georgetown Guyana. The approximately US$50 million development project will significantly expand the property’s accommodations and amenities and introduce a full-service Hyatt Regency experience.
Designed for business and extended-stay travelers, the release said that Atlantic Suites Hotel offers 80 guest rooms and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Atlantic Ocean or Georgetown skyline, along with a 24-hour fitness centre.
Guests also have access to amenities at the neighbouring Pegasus Hotel and Pegasus Corporate Business Centre, also owned by RJR Investments & Holdings Inc., offering approximately 36,000 square feet of meeting and event space, six dining venues, including Aura Sky Lounge with panoramic city views and an outdoor pool.
Looking ahead, the release said that RJR Investments & Holdings Inc. plans to develop a new tower adjacent to Atlantic Suites Hotel as part of an approximately US$50 million investment in the property. Upon completion in 2028, the newly built tower will connect to the existing Atlantic Suites Hotel via a pedestrian bridge, bringing the two buildings together as Hyatt Regency Georgetown Guyana. The hotel will offer 240 guest rooms and suites, a signature restaurant and market, a lobby and rooftop bar and meeting and event space, providing an expanded experience for business, leisure and group travelers.
“This debut in Guyana represents an exciting milestone in our strategic growth across the Latin America and the Caribbean,” said Cristiano Gonçalves, Vice President of Development, South America & the Caribbean, Hyatt.
“Guyana is experiencing an extraordinary period of growth and international interest, making this the ideal time to introduce the Hyatt brand to the country,” said Robert Badal, CEO, RJR Investments & Holdings Inc.
He added “Pegasus Hotel has been part of Georgetown’s hospitality landscape for decades. Joining the Hyatt portfolio allows us to build on that legacy…”
The release said that the addition of Atlantic Suites Hotel supports Hyatt’s strategy for growing its brands in key destinations throughout the Latin America and Caribbean region, including in emerging markets without an existing Hyatt hotel.
Following its transition to the Hyatt Regency brand in 2028, the release said that Atlantic Suites Hotel will join the World of Hyatt loyalty programme, enabling members to earn and redeem points for stays, dining, wellbeing experiences and more.
