鈥淭he construction of the Hyatt Place Hotel across the street from Phoenix City Hall is a testament to confidence in the resiliency of the Phoenix economy. This exciting development is needed to add rooms to the city鈥檚 hospitality inventory, and it鈥檚 a statement that Phoenix is a strong market,鈥� said Christine Mackay, director, Phoenix Community and Economic Development. 鈥淚t鈥檚 the rare economic developer who can look out her window and see rapidly-occurring changes in a downtown landscape. From my vantage point, I am able to see eight cranes working to add high-rise buildings to Downtown Phoenix. There are a half-dozen more I can鈥檛 see, but know are keeping construction workers busily employed."
Opening in September 2021, the Hyatt Place Phoenix Downtown will bring the brand鈥檚 intuitive design, casual atmosphere, and practical amenities, such as free Wi-Fi and 24-hour food offerings, to the Phoenix area. The hotel鈥檚 design will emulate the art deco design of the surrounding architecture, located adjacent to the Orpheum Theater. In the heart of downtown Phoenix, the hotel is just three blocks away from the Phoenix Convention Center and nearby to an array of downtown Phoenix attractions like Chase Field, Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix Art Museum, shopping and restaurants. Getting here is a breeze just located a few miles away from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.
鈥淣ow more than ever, Pacific Hospitality Group is very excited to add our first Hyatt Place to our portfolio and our second hotel asset in Arizona. Our family has been in the hotel business for more than 30 years and we see this development as a testament to our commitment to our team members, guests and communities that our industry will come back from the devastation of Covid-19,鈥� said Garrett Busch, Vice President of Capital Markets for Pacific Hospitality Group. 鈥淲e are especially committed to the Arizona market and our budding relationship with the Hyatt brand,鈥� added Busch. 鈥淭he Arizona market, specifically downtown, is a top development market for PHG. We see a lot of potential in the economic diversity of the area, as well as the ASU presence and the scale of offerings in sporting and social events.鈥澨�
鈥淲hen seeking out a brand for this project, Hyatt was an obvious choice. Hyatt brings a longstanding tradition in excellence in hospitality; and the strength in their loyalty platform, World of Hyatt, will bring value to the diversity of offerings in the area.鈥� Busch stated. 鈥淪imilarly, we could not be more pleased to be partnering with 必威体育官方APP下载 on this exciting project.听Our partnerships with 必威体育官方APP下载 and our long-time lending partner American National Insurance Company, especially in these times, have made this project possible. While this is our first project with 必威体育官方APP下载, this is our 7th听ground up development with American National Insurance Company, among many other acquisition financings and refinancing鈥檚 over our 20+ year relationship. We are grateful to their whole organization for always supporting us and sharing in our vision investing in Phoenix for the long term.鈥�
As a co-developer and builder for the hotel, this is 必威体育官方APP下载鈥檚 second Hyatt-flagged hotel in the Valley, as well as the second hospitality development in downtown Phoenix for the firm, second to the Hampton Inn & Suites located at Polk Street and 1st Street.
