Luxury Hotels Atlas / The Maison / Andaz

Andaz hotels

Local culture shapes the rooms and informal welcome, with the lobby a neighborhood living room.

Andaz takes its cue from the neighborhood, bringing local design, sociable public spaces, and an informal welcome to Hyatt’s luxury hotels. Its name means “personal style” in Hindi, and the portfolio gives that idea tangible form, from a former canal library in Amsterdam to Prague’s Sugar Palace and the towers of Singapore’s DUO development.

41 Andaz hotels in 24 countries on the Luxury Hotels Atlas (8 not open yet), each placed on the six LHA Tiers.

• Owned by Hyatt Hotels Corporation
• On the atlas: 15 High Luxury, 15 Core Luxury, 10 Accessible Luxury, 1 Near Luxury

History

Andaz developed around the idea that the hotel could belong to its neighborhood. Amsterdam’s former library became a canvas for Dutch design and literary references, while the Seoul hotel drew on Korean textile patterns. Across the collection, informal hosting and sociable public rooms connect these different interpretations of local culture.
