HYATT REGENCY MISSION BAY SPA AND MARINA ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR RENOVATION Resort Reinvigorates Spaces With Nod to Southern California's Coastal Chic Style and Rich Maritime History Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina is pleased to announce the unveiling of a multi-million dollar renovation, including a complete interior revitalization of the property's 438 guestrooms, Blue Marble Spa, pool deck, two dining outlets and nearly 16,000 sq. ft. of meeting space. Located on Mission Bay, the property's refresh elevates the guest experience with quiet sophistication and high-end comfort. The coastal chic design aesthetic is a nod to Southern California, well known for its sunny year-round weather, and includes a maritime color palette plus, nautical aesthetic details. The overall interior effect creates a seamless, "outdoors in," sense of place and environment. The property is owned by Chesapeake Lodging Trust, a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT). "We are excited to share a refreshed Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina," said hotel general manager Chad Eding. "The property and the destination itself have a rich seafaring history, which is reflected intrinsically throughout the redesign. Our new rooms offer modern touches, while still maintaining the hotel's classic character. We look for- ward to this new chapter for the hotel and look forward to exceeding our guests' expectations with enthusiasm and pride." The new design, led by Design Directions International, draws inspiration from the hotel's location on the celebrated Mission Bay. Guestrooms showcase a contemporary take with comfortable and func- tional furnishings to accommodate both business and leisure guests. Renovated guestrooms feature new wall coverings, including an accent shiplap wall, carpeting and balcony furniture. Nautical-themed decora- tive touches found in the guestroom's new lamps and mirrors comple- ment the exclusive artwork, depicting images of boating and coastal scenes. The renovated foyers, halls and elevator lobbies on each floor received new wall coverings and carpeting that reflect the maritime palette found throughout the guestrooms and public spaces. Cool pacific blues, plus touches of washed greys and ivories foster a sense of place based on the hotel's waterfront location. Meeting space at Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina has expanded with the inclusion of Crow's Nest, a new 555-sq. ft. space that is located above the lobby. Additionally, the hotel's Bayview and Mission Ballrooms, both featuring natural light, received new carpet, wallcover- ings and banquet chairs.
