Hyatt announced the rebranding of four hotels in France, creating Grand Hyatt Cannes Hotel Martinez, Hyatt Regency Nice Palais de la Mediterranée and Hyatt Regency Paris Etoile.

The fourth hotel, now branded as Hotel du Louvre, a Hyatt Hotel, will become an Andaz following a renovation. These new Hyatt hotels join the three Hyatt properties already in Paris: Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme, Hyatt Paris Madeleine and Hyatt Regency Paris Charles de Gaulle.

Situated in prime locations in the French capital and on the French Riviera, all four hotels offer upscale accommodations to business and leisure travelers and provide optimal space for corporate meetings, conferences and seminars, as well as weddings, banquets and other social events.

Peter Fulton, group president of EAME/Southwest Asia for Hyatt, commented, "We are thrilled to introduce Hyatt to the French Riviera and deepen our brand presence in Europe, specifically in Paris, one of the most visited cities in the world. We believe our distinct culture, strong brands and incredible associates will help to make these hotels some of finest in their respective cities."
