I guess it will not survive at all, the hotel was already run with as little manpower as possible, valet + bellman service was handled by the front desk staff or not at all most of the time and without access to a popular bookjng engine like hyatt.com bookings will probably go down further.

Actually sad, I liked the property a lot and updated the thread about the hotel frequently, access by public transport was easy and I once made it from the property to the LH check in desks at BRU in 50-55 minutes...

As pointed out already, Hyatt has to update its portfolio in Europe asap, but right now they seem to pick the sweet markets ( ZRH; MXP; DUB; LHR ) and in addition to that only expand in the relatively fast growing super upscale sector
