And as MarkOK notes, the whole "Timeless" and "Boundless" spiel is just ridiculous. Why not just call them what they are? Traditional Brands, Lifestyle Brands, Independent Brands. Something like that. This has all been thought up by some poorly educated person in Hyatt's corporate marketing, and nobody has had the guts to tell them that it's stupid.
