Hyatt Hotels has announced Unscripted by Hyatt, the newest brand in its growing Essentials portfolio. Designed for travellers who value the essentials and prefer spontaneity over structure, Unscripted by Hyatt hotels will bring to life a flexible, collection-style approach where each property reflects its own identity and local flavor yet remains unmistakably Hyatt in quality and care.

With over 40 hotels globally in active discussions to join the brand, the Unscripted by Hyatt brand offers independent properties and small portfolios a light-touch operating model and flexible brand standards, empowering owners to maintain their unique identity and positioning while benefiting from Hyatt’s global scale, including the award-winning World of Hyatt loyalty program, now more than 56 million members strong.
“The Unscripted by Hyatt brand gives owners a flexible path to join the Hyatt system while still delivering the high-quality, dependable experience guests expect from Hyatt,” said Dan Hansen, Head of Americas Development, Hyatt. “By joining the growing World of Hyatt loyalty program, owners benefit from our powerful network where an innovative new brand like Unscripted by Hyatt widens our guest and customer reach and strengthens the value of the whole Hyatt system.”
