NORTH AMERICA Hyatt Hotels & Resorts plans to launch approximately 2,000 hypoallergenic guestrooms across 125 properties. The program, dubbed Respire by Hyatt, uses technology by Pure Solutions to eliminate up to 98% of airborne viruses and bacteria, as well as pollen and other irritants commonly found in indoor environments.
More than 60 Hyatt hotels currently offer Respire by Hyatt guestrooms, including in New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Orlando, Atlanta and Washington. All other Hyatt, Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt, Hyatt Regency and Andaz properties in the United States, Canada and the Caribbean will have Respire by Hyatt rooms, with most of them available by the end of this year.
“The well-being of our guests is a top priority, and with the new Respire by Hyatt rooms, we are able to offer travelers another way to wake up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day,” says Tom Smith, vice president of rooms for Hyatt Hotels & Resorts. “Respire by Hyatt is a simple but empowering initiative that we are pleased to provide to our guests.”
The Respire by Hyatt room concept employs state-of-the-art purification techniques. Each hotel room is treated comprehensively to minimize allergens and irritants from all surfaces and fabrics. Additionally, all mattresses and pillows are encased in a protective hypoallergenic covering. The air in the room is continuously circulated through a medical grade purifier, and the room is maintained and recertified every six months.
