The new Hyatt Regency Tysons Corner Center Hotel is officially open. According to its developers, the 18-story project, which opened on April 14, is the first full-service hotel to open at Tysons Corner in more than 20 years.
The 300-room hotel is part of a mixed-use expansion underway at Tysons Corner Center by its owner, Macerich, a real estate investment trust. It joins a new Tysons Tower office building, VITA luxury apartments (expected to open later this year) and new restaurants, all built around The Plaza, an elevated, 1.5-acre public space with a stop on the Washington Metro Silver Line.
The center of the new urban hub is the 2 million-square-foot Tysons Corner Center mall, which draws millions of visitors each year. The hotel also is close to the area’s technology and corporate centers and is near the Pentagon and Defense community.
“Hyatt Regency Tysons Corner Center is a one-stop experience that puts everything at our guests' fingertips no matter their reason for visiting,” Hyatt Regency Tysons Corner General Manager Daniel Amato, said in a statement.
The hotel is designed to offer business and leisure travelers an upscale hotel experience. Guest rooms have nine-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, a separate seating area, marble bathrooms and 48-inch flat panel televisions.
There’s also complimentary Wi-Fi throughout guestrooms, a 24-hour fitness center, and indoor swimming pool. The hotel also provides guests with an open workspace with computer stations and printing services, babysitting, currency exchange, and self-park or valet parking options.
For meetings and special events, there’s 15,000 square feet of meeting space and a 7,000-square-foot Regency Ballroom, which can host more than 600 guests.
