(PRWEB) January 15, 2013 - Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Englewood LLC announced today that an agreement has been signed between an affiliate of Hyatt Hotels Corporation and 511 South Central Avenue, LLC for a 208-room Hyatt Place Hotel to be developed in the Harbor East neighborhood of downtown Baltimore, Maryland. Hyatt Place Baltimore Harbor East will be located at 511 South Central Avenue, proximate to the Harbor East, Fells Point and Little Italy neighborhoods and two blocks from both the Baltimore Harbor and the planned Harbor Point mixed-use development.

Construction of the eight-story building is expected to commence mid-2013 with opening planned for the third quarter of 2014. The hotel will be managed by Interstate Hotels and Resorts.

“Hyatt is actively expanding the Hyatt Place brand throughout the United States, and we are excited to be working with Englewood to bring Hyatt Place to this major urban market,” said Jim Chu, senior vice president, franchise and owner relations for Hyatt Hotels & Resorts.

Ken Finkelstein, President of Englewood LLC, said, “We are very excited to be working with Hyatt. This brand is the perfect fit for the vibrant, diverse mixed-use environment that is developing in and around Harbor East in Baltimore.”

Each room will be served by a central HVAC system and will incorporate stylish bathrooms with glass-enclosed showers. Every guestroom is also equipped with a state-of-the-art media center that allows electronic devices to plug directly into the television, giving guests instant access to the technological amenities they are accustomed to accessing at home or in the office.

Hyatt Place hotels also feature complimentary Wi-Fi access, a coffee and wine bar serving specialty coffees and premium wine and beer and a Grab ’n Go case stocked with freshly made sandwiches and salads. The Guest Kitchen offers made-to-order breakfast, lunch and dinner entrées around the clock, in addition to a complimentary continental breakfast served daily.
