CHICAGO, IL, 2019-Apr-26 — /Travel PR News/ — Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) announced today (April 24, 2019) the opening of the first Hyatt hotel in Algeria, Hyatt Regency Algiers Airport.

“Algeria is a commercial hub in Africa, and we’re excited to see the Hyatt Regency brand enter the market with the opening of the hotel,” said Pascal Leprou, the hotel’s general manager. “With a variety of well-designed work and social spaces, our busy guests can easily stay productive while traveling. We anticipate a strong reception of the property, from both the region as well as international travelers.”

Design and Guestrooms
The property is designed to foster productivity and peace of mind, made evident through its open, vibrant design. The structure itself gives rise to spaces in which guests can meet and mingle.
