Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay recently completed a $16 million guest room renovation,
further strengthening its longstanding position as Tampa’s premier luxury hotel.
This AAA Four Diamond property boasts award-winning restaurants, 20,000
square feet of first-class meeting and convention facilities and the superior guest
service expected of the Grand Hyatt brand.
Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay is located less than three miles from the Tampa
International Airport (TPA) in the Westshore business district. Smartly set in a 35-
acre nature preserve on the northern shores of Tampa Bay, the hotel provides a
tranquil hideaway amidst unspoiled, natural beauty while offering easy access to
the city’s wealth of dining, shopping and entertainment offerings, including the
Tampa Bay Times Forum, the Florida Aquarium, the Raymond James Stadium
and the Starz Center for Performing Arts. The hotel is also conveniently situated
just 15 miles from the Gulf coast beaches.

Inspired by the surf and sand, Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay’s 442 luxuriously
appointed guest rooms, including 23 spacious suites and 45 villa-style
casitas, were recently redesigned with the Florida coast in mind. To update and
enhance the rooms’ modern and sophisticated new look, designers Looney &
Associates of Dallas, Texas, used a soothing color palette, rich linen textures and
dramatic woods, creating a casually chic and inviting atmosphere. Modern finishes
and fixtures, a generously sized desk with polished chrome accents, sculptural
tables, plush bedding and a spa-like bathroom evoke a contemporary yet coastalcasual
feeling that leaves guests well rested and energized.
