Hyatt Place Rouen Celebrates Official Opening in Northern France

Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced the opening of Hyatt Place Rouen, expanding the Hyatt Place brand’s global footprint in markets that matter most to guests and World of Hyatt members. Combining style, innovation and 24/7 convenience, the new hotel features a modern design, casual atmosphere, and practical amenities, such as three meeting rooms, a restaurant with French regional cuisine, onsite spa with a heated pool and treatment rooms, and state-of-the-art fitness centre.

Hyatt Place Rouen is conveniently situated in the heart of Rouen, a pleasant stroll from iconic sites such as the Musee des Beaux-Arts de Rouen and the Gothic Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Rouen, and located within a former teacher training college dating back to 1886. Just a two-hour drive away from Paris, with unparalleled access to the charming countryside and historical sites of Normandy, Hyatt Place Rouen is an ideal choice for both work and relaxation, situated in the third most visited region in France.

The hotel offers panoramic views overlooking the city’s skyline of “a hundred spires”, and this outlook is reflected in the interior design with a steel blue palette evoking the Seine River and stormy Norman skies. This complements the muted yellow tones, in a nod to the region’s renowned Calvados spirits and warmth of the local culture. Stripes feature throughout the property, as a reference to the half-timbering characteristic of the old town area. Within the “Jardins des Oeuvres”, three striking sculptures add to the hotel’s charm and character. Seamlessly blending contemporary style and comfort, Hyatt Place creates an easy to navigate experience for today’s modern traveller.

Commenting on the opening, Michel Morauw, Managing Director Hyatt EAME North said, “Hyatt Place Rouen captures the essence of Rouen’s rich history while providing the modern traveller with a comfortable, convenient and memorable stay, whether visiting for a short business break, or a leisurely getaway to explore the region’s culture and history. Hyatt Place Rouen marries classical charm with contemporary sophistication, and further expands the brand’s presence in one of our key markets, offering guests and World of Hyatt members exceptional experiences in sought-after destinations.”
