San Francisco, Calif. (November 07, 2022) – Hyatt Regency San Francisco, San Francisco’s premier waterfront hotel in the city’s Embarcadero, announces the completion of a $50 million guestroom renovation led by renowned design firm Looney & Associates. The hotel also receives AAA’s Four Diamond award recognizing the hotel’s upscale style and amenities.

“We are thrilled to announce the completion of a $50 million renovation to our beautiful waterfront hotel right here in the heart of San Francisco’s Embarcadero,” said Matt Humphreys, General Manager & Area Vice President at Hyatt Regency San Francisco.  “The renovation is taking our guest experience to the next level with modern and sophisticated accommodations reflective of our vibrant location.  Additionally, we are very excited to begin this new and exciting chapter by receiving AAA’s Four Diamond designation.  This prestigious industry recognition is a true testament to the incredible experience and unmatched service available at our newly-renovated hotel.”

Urban Modernism Enriched by a Diverse Cultural Landscape was the core concept behind the transformation of the hotel’s guestrooms and suites. Guests are greeted with modernized rooms grounded by natural wood & concrete tones, punctuated with deeply saturated pops of color.  The details, textures, artwork and colors found in the design were directly inspired by the surrounding locale.

New porcelain tile is carried from the entryway into the bathroom, while the design of the new carpet in the sleeping area is a nod to the building’s angular architecture. Enlarged bathrooms offer spacious showers, refreshing rainfall showerheads, vanities with stone counters and ample storage, and oversized lit mirrors. Each revamped guestroom includes a large open closet with integrated lighting and platform beds with integrated sconces, up-lighting, convenience outlets and motion-activated night lights. New contemporary furnishings include a spacious chaise lounge or lounge chair, generous stone-surface desk, multi-purpose table, and wall-mounted high-definition televisions. Select rooms feature a sliding serenity door that separates the sleeping area from the entryway for additional privacy and relaxation. Guests can also take advantage of the updated private balconies with new furniture and iconic waterfront or city views.

Hyatt Regency San Francisco is home to the world’s largest hotel atrium which was designed by renowned architect John Portman in the iconic brutalist architectural style. Seeking to complement the existing structure and bring a modern and sophisticated design throughout the property, the open corridors have been updated with plush carpeting inspired by the building’s angular geometry, bright textural wallcovering & light wood accents. The hotel is located just a short walk from Embarcadero’s world-famous attractions, premier dining, and popular entertainment. As one of the city’s leading destinations for meetings and events, the hotel is home to 72,000 square-feet of customizable space for any and every event.  With on-site event professionals to help with planning, it’s the perfect venue for all occasions.

In addition to the renovation, the resort has also received AAA’s prestigious Four Diamond designation. The designation recognizes hotels for excellent operational qualifications essential for guest satisfaction and safety as well as upscale style, amenities and services. Four Diamond designation also recognizes that the hotel passes a thorough cleanliness inspection of visible cleanliness plus an ATP surface testing of its surfaces so guests can rest assured their room is as clean as possible.  Diamond inspections are conducted by trained experts who evaluate the guest experience with consistent, objective criteria.
