Hyatt Regency Kyoto will close on May 9, 2027, as owner Orix demolishes the building to construct a new hotel, likely reopening by 2029/2030

## Summary

Hyatt Regency Kyoto, originally the Park Hotel and part of the Hyatt chain since 2006, is scheduled to close on May 9, 2027. The building's owner, Orix, has decided to demolish the structure rather than renew the expiring management contract. While the specific brand for the new hotel is unclear, construction is expected to result in a reopening around 2029 or 2030. This closure affects World of Hyatt members who frequent the property or hold points redeemable there
