Grand Hyatt DFW Airport Hotel Renovation
Hyatt Hotels is kicking off a full renovation of the Grand Hyatt hotel at DFW International Airport in July.
The Chicago hospitality company made the announcement on Wednesday, noting it expected the project to wrap up late this year.
“We are thrilled to announce Grand Hyatt DFW will undergo a transformation to provide international and domestic travelers and local residents with new, more refined accommodations, enhanced culinary experiences and modernized conference and event spaces for meetings and groups,” said Jeff Babcock, general manager of the airport hotel, in a statement.

The first phase of the $34 million renovation will increase the number of rooms from 298 to 315. Rooms will feature aeronautical themes and blue and green color palettes, and will include high-definition flatscreen televisions and new charging ports, as well as enlarged vanities, showers and tubs in the bathrooms.

Renovations will also increase seating capacity at the airport hotel’s Grand Met restaurant and lounge bar. Newly designed private and semi-private dining rooms are also slated for the restaurant alongside revamped seasonal menus. The company noted it will serve locally sourced international and modern cuisine.
Meeting and Event Spaces
The final phase of renovations at the Grand Hyatt DFW Airport will deliver a top-floor executive boardroom for meetings. An indoor/outdoor rooftop event space is also planned overlooking the airport runways.
