Sleek, sophisticated South Florida hotel makes its debut in city’s newest skyscraper.
FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – Located in the heart of the city’s bustling business district, Hyatt Centric Las Olas Fort Lauderdale will open its doors April 2nd as a premier destination for business, group, and leisure travelers. The full-service, 238-room property is located inside the new-build 100 Las Olas tower, which has dramatically transformed the city’s downtown skyline as its tallest building to date.
Inspired by Fort Lauderdale’s waterfront location and iconic yachting culture, with architecture and interiors by Simeone Deary Design Group, the property’s aesthetic features colors, textures and shapes emblematic of boats, the city’s intricate canal systems, and life on the water. Guests are immersed in the hotel’s nautical concept upon arrival. Check-in desks are designed to emulate boat hulls while a massive light fixture by Yellow Goat Design serves as a focal point, glittering with reflections and refractions that represent an abstracted ship hull as if it were being seen from below the water’s surface. Additional lobby features include an antique brass sextant – a tool used for measuring angular distances between objects and determining altitudes, a brass line that communicates the coordinates of the hotel, teak wood and blue wall coverings designed to look like ocean ripples, and a floor pattern that resembles yacht decking.
