Hyatt Owned Brands not in Brand Explorer
After reading a thread mentioning the brand “tommie” apparently is a Hyatt owned brand I became curious. Which then lead me to reading that Hyatt owns another hotel brand called Jaya. I’m wondering why these aren’t in Hyatt’s Brand Explorer, and more than that how do I find these properties to book?

Jaya is a brand conceived by the late Indonesian designer Jaya Ibrahim, who worked on hotels as The Dharmawangsa in Jakarta and The Legian in Bali, and plans were temporarily scuttled upon his passing in 2015. Two Roads Hospitality picked the plans up in 2017 and announced the launch of the brand as a high-end, 'discreet Asian luxury' offering with plans to open the first hotel in Lombok in 2020. If Jaya still exists, then it should be part of the Hyatt portfolio because of the TRH acquisition and just like tommie, we haven't heard much from or seen it yet because it has yet to launch - although the first tommie is opening in Hollywood in 2020, and the second property in Austin launches in 2021.

I was just thrown off a bit by this press release by Hyatt,
”Hyatt Hotels Corporation, headquartered in Chicago, is a leading global hospitality company with a portfolio of 20 premier brands. As of September 30, 2019, the Company's portfolio included more than 875 properties in over 60 countries across six continents.”

Definitely would be nice to have more brands to try out, along with adding to the Brand Explorer.

I guess Hyatt’s Global Contact center reached out to an Admin who shared contact with me stating Jaya is not and will not be a Hyatt Brand. They said the site the information was posted on was false/old information.
