Hyatt opens first branded property in Abu Dhabi
POSTED 07 Nov 2011 . BY Pete Hayman
A new 360-bedroom hotel has become Hyatt Hotels Corporation's first branded property in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, in partnership with Abu Dhabi National Hotels.

Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel and Villas is located on Saadiyat Island and boasts the Atarmia Spa, which comprises nine treatment rooms, outdoor private terraces and an ice fountain.

A whirlpool; a sauna; and a steamroom also form as part of the new spa, which is influenced by traditional aromatherapy methods that have been used throughout Arabian history.

Elsewhere at the Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel and Villas, facilities include a fitness centre; a tennis court; four outdoor swimming pools; and a stretching studio.

New York, US-based architects Perkins Eastman and Singapore-based designer Wilson Associates worked on the development, which also features energy-efficient measures.

Hyatt International, South West Asia managing director Peter Fulton said: "Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel and Villas is the first Hyatt-branded hotel to open in Abu Dhabi.

"We will also be the first luxury hotel to open on Saadiyat Island, and are proud of the part we are playing in the exciting Saadiyat story."
