I pass by this project almost weekly. The hotel construction is underway but has a LONG way to go still. I'd say that late 2018 is possible but not certain.
Those drawings in the link just above are rather removed from the developing reality. The open spaces are a lot smaller and the pedestrian mall next to the fanciful movie theater fails to show an existing fruit stand which is very popular locally. Attempts to cut it down for a mall would lead to significant neighborhood outcry in support of the owner of the fruit stand.

Most of the construction is looking pretty close except the hotel, which is looking far from it. Also, the views from the hotel are going to be of a parking lot to Kohl's. Brace yourself, finicky Hyatt elites. This isn't San Francisco.

Drove by the other day and although the sign still says it is opening in 2018, it is a long way from being done. Construction is going quite slowly.

Property is accepting reservations from August 1st onward. Rack rate loaded is in the mid $600's no matter what week selected. Weekend stays in high 200's.

Yep, have multiple bookings there already starting in October. Booked several months ago. Should be quite convenient to my Sunnyvale office. Rack rates are obscene
Hope they actually open on time. Had reservations at the new HH by SJC which didn’t open on time (and still isn’t open) and they just cancelled my reservations with no help until I demanded they get me a Hyatt at the same rate

My corporate rate trims off a little bit but nothing to make it affordable. I typically stay in the HH San Jose or Santa Clara.

The scaffolding is all gone and there is "Hyatt Centric" signage up but as seen from outside, there still looks like a lot of work to do.
$600 rack rate for that hotel in that location seems crazy, that's higher than I just paid at the PHNY,. Hopefully just a placeholder until they get a better idea of what they can ask. There are a whole bunch of midrange hotels located within 2 miles and there are also two new adjacent Marriott branded hotels being built just about a mile away on San Antonio Road.

Dunno about rack rates but I just went on the FS website for random weekdays in August (Aug 14-16) and it was $552 a night. For those same nights, the Hyatt Centric MV website listed the room rate as $686 a night (member rate). Now the FS in East Palo Alto is not a great hotel by any means, but it certainly will be at least two steps above the Hyatt Centric!
