Ninth floor lounge? Presumably not an executive lounge, but more like the usual HP bar/ food market.

I've stayed at all the Hyatt properties in the London area, and certainly welcome this fifth property. Bring 'em on: there's no such thing as Too Many Hyatts. Location of this one will be great: less than a mile from Andaz Liverpool Street and hopefully at a much lower price point. Eagerly awaiting the grand opening.

Award category 3.
If rates are even remotely reasonable, I won't ever have to stay out at Hayes ever again!

I missed the part about it being a Cat 3. Good way for me to use up my points because London is so expensive! It would be nice if there were some sample cash rates though.

a lot closer to Aldgate East and still zone 1. Would have been better if a hyatt house and then would make me switch here for sure from the residence inn near the tower bridge because of the kitchenette.

That's really interesting. Must have been user error then. I'm glad I'm wrong because the closer the station to the hotel is, the better! Thx bro.

It's OK for Heathrow T1-2-3 though with the direct bus and a 10-minute walk. I do prefer the rooms and breakfast to the HP on Bath Road, so I'll do most of my quick London stopovers at Hayes...

LOL. You take an excruciatingly slow bus ride to Ealing Broadway or Ealing Common and then the Tube or train to get into London. 1+ hour each way, which you somehow justify by paying £50 for those Hyatt night credits instead of £250...
