One of the Caribbean’s leading business hotels has completed an “extensive,” four-phase renovation project.

The Hyatt Regency Trinidad in Port of Spain has officially debuted its new look, following upgrades to the property’s guest rooms, dining venues, main lobby and spa.

“We consistently work to make updates and additions to our hotel in an effort to ensure that guests are experiencing our passion for quality, innovation, service and the creation of a caring environment for our customers, associates and the community we serve,” said Hyatt Regency Trinidad General Manager Russell George. “This renovation was a necessary step to launch the hotel into its next decade of service.”

The hotel’s 43,000 square feet of event space was also given a total refresh, with new furniture and an updated color scheme.

In addition, local artists were commissioned to provide art pieces across the hotel.
