Several other acquisitions that are mostly lower end.
The only addition I think fits well is SLH, and even that doesn't work well because we don't get the Hyatt program benefits while staying there.
Now this.
Hard disagree. Have you been to a Miraval? They are fantastic & are aspirational...fits well within the Hyatt positioning.
SLH, not a pure integration, but there is earn & burn, breakfast, 1 cat upgrade, late check-out/in, etc...looking forward to my 1K EUR/night stay at a SLH in a few weeks on points.
Don't think anyone wants to see Hyatt go low end like larger competitors, hopefully there are some asset sales on the lower tier ones.
