Why Conrad is better than most of Hyatts

Maybe except for Park Hyatt.


Grand Hyatt is premium position while Conrad/JWM and IC positioned as entry- Luxury. But many might confused and though GH is in the same market and tier as its competitors.

In our nation, Grand Hyatt is like a Westin and Sheraton with shower only, business and convention style, no exquisite detail and touch.

Internationally, Grand Hyatt is far better than domestic, but still one or half step behind Conrad. I know, you though they are in the same level. Wrong.


There are some not so good Conrad, JWM, IC, just like Grand Hyatt. But the difference is that Conrad has Maldives,Hong Kong; JW has its Marquis Miami, Houston downtown, Venice. There are also few prestigious IC in the world.

Both of Conrad and JW has some more exquisite top end properties opening in the recent 5 years, trying to compete in the real luxury segment. Those hotels have less than 250 rooms and can directly competing with traditional top Luxury brand in those locations . While Grand Hyatt still remain a mess-convention wannabe 500 rooms segment.

Even for its Hong Kong location , which is one of the best GH in the world, is still no where near IC and Conrad, JWM in Pacific center. It surrounded by convention center, creepy governor house, nothing near the hotel except for some american chain snake. Nobody stays there. The nearby environment is so unpleasant.


Conrad>JWM>IC>= All the Hyatt except for Park
