Rebranded Hyatt Centric Goa is now open

Hyatt has lined up 5 hotels this year under different brands in India. The first brand introduction to open up is Hyatt Centric Goa. Hyatt introduced the Centric brand in India last year with the rebranding of one of their Hyatt Hotels to Hyatt Centric, Bengaluru along with a proper renovation too. Hyatt Centric is aimed towards millennials. According to Hyatt,

The Hyatt Centric brand serves as a launch pad to destination exploration and discovery for millennial-minded travellers who want to be in the middle of the action.

Hyatt earlier opened a Hyatt Place, Goa in January 2016. This property is now rebranded as Hyatt Centric, Goa. So Hyatt isn’t opening a new hotel after all. Hyatt Centric Goa is located in North Goa near Candolim. It is Level 2 World of Hyatt property. The property doesn’t seem to have undergone much refurbishment except a change in branding.

Bottomline

Hyatt is shifting the property from a minimalist one to a millennial one. The inaugural promotion is a sweet deal. A Hyatt Centric is a better fit for Goa market judging by what the brand is aiming for. A Hyatt Place also has a “place” in Goa market considering Hyatt is opening up Hyatt Places in tourist destinations like Hampi, Rameshwaram and so-on.
