The Grand Hyatt New York will take the wraps off the first of its newly redesigned guest rooms next month. The debut of the hotel's initial batch of 150 updated rooms will kick off the final phase of the hotel's $130 million renovation, a process that will also include the addition of a new restaurant and a gourmet grab-and-go food concept, as well as makeovers to the lobby, mezzanine level, social event spaces and ballroom.

Upgrades to the property's remaining 1,160 rooms will continue on a floor-by-floor basis into 2011. The updated room design, by Looney & Associates, will feature “refined hues, lush textures and engaging artwork to evoke the mood of a sleek, modern Manhattan residence,” Hyatt says.

“The renovation of Grand Hyatt New York represents a rebirth, reshaping the legacy of this historic hotel,” said Matthew Adams, area vice president-New York, Hyatt Hotels & Resorts.
