The construction phase of a long-awaited hotel in Hamilton’s McMaster Innovation Park will begin this summer.
Sigma Group and Kothari Group will develop the “dual-branded” property — Hyatt Place and Hyatt House. Both brands fall under the Hyatt Hotels Corporation.
The two hotels will be housed in one building but serve different purposes.
Hyatt Place will feature 78 traditional rooms for work and leisure, while Hyatt House will have 84 suite-style rooms equipped with kitchens for longer stays.
The hotels are meant to serve Hamilton and its businesses, researchers and the community at nearby McMaster. The property will be about two kilometres east of McMaster University and sit along the west side of Longwood Road South.
Opening is set for fall 2026.
Amenities will include a gym, indoor saltwater pool, a business centre, laundry, free Wi-Fi, parking and a lobby lounge with all-day dining options.
The hotel will also have a casual dining lounge, bar and restaurant. Meeting spaces will range from 300 square feet to 2,800 square feet.
Sigma Group and Kothari Group also jointly own the 125-room TownePlace Suites by Marriott on Upper James Street.
