The original Hyatt Regency Tianjin opened in 1986 as the first hotel in
China under a Hyatt brand and one of the very first international hotels
in mainland China. It marked the beginning of Hyatt’s development and
growth across the country. During the hotel’s two decades of operation,
Hyatt Regency Tianjin became a prestigious landmark in the city and the
Hyatt Regency name became synonymous with superior service, prestigious
meetings and special events.
Today, the new Hyatt Regency Tianjin East brings the return of Hyatt
Regency’s signature authentic hospitality and welcomes its long-awaited
guests. With its contemporary decor, spacious guestrooms, extraordinary
restaurants and extensive meeting and event facilities, Hyatt Regency
Tianjin East provides an energizing and productive environment for
guests to convene and connect, wine and dine, or relax and unwind.
“Tianjin welcomed Hyatt’s first-ever hotel in China back in 1986, and
ever since, it has been a very important market for us. We are excited
and honored to return the Hyatt Regency brand here as a place for any
and every occasion,” said
Larry Tchou
, Group President, Asia Pacific,
Hyatt Hotels Corporation. “The opening of Hyatt Regency Tianjin East
will further strengthen our brand footprint in China, and we look
forward to fostering meaningful connections for business and leisure
travelers as well as the surrounding community.”
Rising 25 stories over Weiguo Road in the Hedong District, Hyatt Regency
Tianjin East forms part of the fast-developing commercial hub that

. Its convenient location is just 20 minutes from Tianjin
Binhai International Airport, and 10 minutes from the historic heart of
Tianjin with easy access to the Tianjin Economic Development Area
(TEDA), Dongli, Beichen, Wuqing and Xiqing industrial zones. It is also

Tianjin East, where the majority of our leadership team has Hyatt DNA.
Many of our associates worked with the former Hyatt Regency Tianjin and
were thrilled to return. We are proud to have such an energetic team of
expert planners and passionate hoteliers who look forward to connecting
