HYATT HOTELS CORPORATION CEO VERIFIED

Mark S. Hoplamazian is the current President and CEO of Hyatt Hotels Corporation. According to Wikipedia, he took over the position on November 28, 2006. The Hyatt corporation headquarters is called the Hyatt Center, and is located at 71 South Wacker Drive in Chicago, Illinois. 

Again, according to Wikipedia, Hyatt Hotels Corporation was born upon purchase of the Hyatt House, at Los Angeles International Airport in 1957. The original owners, Hyatt von Dehn and Jack D. Crouch were entrepreneurs. Hyatt wanted to get out of the hotel business after only a couple of years. He sold his share of the hotel to Jay Pritzker. Jay had his brother Donald oversee day-to-day operations of the company as well as acquire motels and hotels. They built a brand that continues to remain among the leading names in the hospitality and hotel industry. Hyatt became famous when they opened the world's first atrium hotel in 1967, the Hyatt Regency Atlanta. In 1969, Donald opened Hyatt's first hotel overseas, the Hyatt Regency Hong Kong. The Hyatt Regency Hong Kong was closed and demolished around the year end of 2005. They built a new one that opened sometime around 2009. Because of Donald's leadership, Hyatt Hotels became the fastest growing hotel chain in the U.S. until his death in 1972.

The Hyatt Regency is the chain's oldest brand. In 1980, the Grand Hyatt and Park Hyatt brands were introduced. Hyatt has more than 340 hotels across the globe. The Hyatt Group owns and operates several chains of hotel. Some are styled as "Resort" properties, and contain features such as spas and other recreational facilities.

At the end of 2004, Hyatt Hotels announced it would purchase AmeriSuites, an upscale chain of all suite business class hotels. The AmeriSuites chain is being rebranded and converted to a new brand being called Hyatt Place. Hyatt Hotels Corporation hopes to better compete with places such as Courtyard by Marriott and Hilton Garden Inn with their new Hyatt Place brand. Then a year later, at the end of 2005, Hyatt announced another acquisition, Summerfield Suites. Sumerfield Suites was also owned by the Blackstone Group, who sold them AmeriSuites. The Summerfield Suites will be rebranded as Hyatt Summerfield Suites and attempt to compete in the highend extended stay market against places like the Residence Inn, Homewood Suites, and Staybridge Suites.

Like any overpaid CEO, layoffs are needed in order to maintain excessive executive salaries. In September 2009 three Hyatt hotels in Boston laid off their entire housekeeping staff. They decided to cut costs by outsourcing the work to a Georgia company for wages that were nearly half of those of the fired workers. To show his outrage, the Massachusetts Governor, threatened to boycott the hotels by state employees.
