An affiliate of Hyatt Hotels has signed a management agreement with developer R&F UK to open a new Park Hyatt property in London.

The 203-room property will be located within R&F UK’s Nine Elms development on the south bank of the river Thames, directly opposite of Westminster.

The hotel, named Park Hyatt London River Thames, is slated to open in 2022. The move will further bolster Hyatt’s footprint in the UK market as the company seeks to open new properties in Europe’s leading cities.

Hyatt vice-president of development Europe Felicity Black-Roberts said: “The addition of the Park Hyatt brand to London is a key milestone for Hyatt.

“It has always been a priority to bring our luxury Park Hyatt brand back to London, so this is a fantastic opportunity for us. We are excited to continue and expand on Hyatt’s relationship with R&F by bringing this new exciting hotel to London.”
