Hyatt Regency Opens in Trinidad
Hyatt Regency Trinidad hosted a formal Grand Opening gala the evening of April 4, 2008, becoming the first full service hotel to open in the dual island nation of Trinidad & Tobago in 46 years. While the hotel welcomed its first guests on January 29, 2008, the elegant Grand Opening marked a celebratory occasion to announce its upscale accommodations, dining, Spa Esencia and business services to the world.
The event was filled with a night of local entertainment that paid tribute to the variety of cultures that comprise the diverse ethnic population of Trinidad & Tobago. Steel pan music, Asian dragon fire dancers in costumes and a finale of fireworks were some of the highlights.
“It’s an occasion that demonstrates the coming of the vision of the people of Trinidad & Tobago,” said Chief Operating Officer, International Operations, Global Hyatt Corporation Rakesh Sarna. “A vision that has given birth to a development that is poised to become the pride of the Caribbean.”
He continued: “The Hyatt Brand signifies quality and dedication to customer service and wherever we go we seek to be in a location that understands and identifies with these attributes. For us, Trinidad and Tobago is that location.”
