This strategic move to bring the Hyatt Regency brand to Chennai will introduce and deliver our authentic hospitality to this bustling market space and ensure that our loyal customers have better connectivity across the globe, as Chennai is clearly an important crossroad for many people."

The 327-room Hyatt Regency Chennai opens with more than 20,000 sq ft (1,900 sq m) of versatile convention and event space, a fully-equipped fitness center, the chic Lobby Lounge, the hotel`s gourmet deli Biscotti, the highly anticipated, all-day-dining restaurant Spice Market, and Stix, which serves authentic Chinese cuisine from the Sichuan region. The hotel also has a stunning outdoor pool which overlooks the city and is set amidst custom-made art installations and lush landscaping.
