    THE Hyatt group plans to open up to eleven hotels across its different brands in the region this year, with the majority of these in China.

    "Our growth is spread out amongst China and the rest of Asia. It's exciting times in terms of the opportunity that is out there," said David Udell, group president (Asia Pacific) for Hyatt Hotels and Resorts, adding that the group is looking at tertiary cities in China, in addition to primary and secondary ones. This is because some brands might be more appropriate for primary cities, while others might do better in secondary and tertiary ones, he pointed out.
