HYATT REGENCY BUFFALO DEBUTS A $15 MILLION RENOVATION

BUFFALO, NY (June 12, 2009) – Hyatt Regency Buffalo unveiled a newly designed hotel yesterday with a commemorative ribbon cutting ceremony.  The $15 million refurbishment of all guestrooms, meeting rooms, lobby, restaurants and public areas has recently been completed.  The renovation project included the addition of a Hyatt StayFit health club, and features a new casual restaurant, Atrium Bar and Bistro.

The hotel, which originally opened its doors in 1984, offers a variety of guestrooms and 17 suites. All rooms feature pillow-top Hyatt Grand Beds™, 32-inch flat screen televisions with digital video-on-demand and premium cable, new bathrooms and furniture, as well as large workstations with high-speed wired Internet access.  The property boasts a warm and contemporary new décor, also featured in the lobby area and meeting rooms.

Updates have also been made to EB Green’s Steakhouse, voted one of the top ten independent steakhouses in the country for the sixth consecutive year. The new Atrium Bar and Bistro features an eclectic bar and comfortable seating area, and offers a bistro style menu for breakfast, lunch and late night dining.

“This is a monumental event for Hyatt Regency as well as the city of Buffalo”, stated Michael Marsch, General Manager.  “We now have a first class product commensurate with the Hyatt name for local and out of town guests to enjoy, whether for business or pleasure.

Erie County Executive Chris Collins celebrated the Hyatt Regency Buffalo upgrades, and announced plans for capital improvements at the attached Buffalo Convention Center.

“The incredible renovations at the Hyatt and the Snyder family’s commitment to Western New York will certainly help us achieve Erie County’s vision to become a world-class community where people want to live, businesses want to locate, and tourists want to visit,” said Erie County Executive Chris Collins.  “As we all work together to bring people to Buffalo to experience our riches, they will now be able to stay at a world-class hotel in the heart of downtown Buffalo.  The Hyatt renovations will also compliment our efforts at the Convention Center, which will be undergoing a much needed face lift through $5 million of capital funding from Erie County.  Once complete, these renovations, along with the newly refurbished Hyatt, will help us attract first rate conventions and events to Buffalo and Erie County.”
