CHICAGO (June 16, 2026) - Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE:H), announced today that a Hyatt affiliate has entered into a management agreement with PT PAM and BINA NUSANTARA, strengthening Hyatt's brand presence in Indonesia and supporting Hyatt's continued growth across key destinations in Southeast Asia.

Through this development, BINA NUSANTARA aims to create a connected environment where education, community, lifestyle, business, and hospitality can grow together and bring added value to the people of Semarang and its surrounding areas.
As part of Hyatt's Essentials portfolio, the select-service hotel expected to bring the Hyatt Place brand's intuitive design, seamless experiences, and 24/7 conveniences to the city. Hyatt Place Semarang will offer a comfortable, functional, and relevant stay experience for various needs, from business trips and family activities to community events and other gatherings. The hotel is expected to become a new icon that strengthens Semarang's appeal as a growing destination for business, tourism, and lifestyle.
Lawrence Wibisono, Direktur utama PT PAM, said that the development of Hyatt Place Semarang is part of BINA NUSANTARA's effort to expand its contribution and create broader benefits for society. "BINA NUSANTARA continues to expand its contribution by presenting initiatives that are not only focused on education but also support the growth of communities and the surrounding area. The groundbreaking of Hyatt Place Semarang is one of our steps to strengthen BINA NUSANTARA's presence in Semarang, while opening new opportunities for collaboration and added value for the community," said Lawrence.
Hyatt Place Semarang is planned with a total of seven floors and 154 rooms. The hotel will be equipped with various facilities, including a lobby, all-day dining, ballroom, meeting rooms, restaurant, gym, swimming pool, and rooftop bar with a view of the Java Sea.
Sarah Leow, Head of Growth & Owner Relations, North East Asia & South East Asia, Hyatt, welcomed the plans for Hyatt Place Semarang as part of the growth of the hospitality sector in the city.

The design of Hyatt Place Semarang is inspired by organic forms and the character of a coastal city.
