Hyatt Place La Paz leadership
Hyatt Place La Paz is under the leadership of General Manager Francisco Hernandez and Sales Manager Eduardo Mejia. In his role, Hernandez is directly responsible for managing the day-to-day operations of the hotel, including overseeing the hotel’s approximately 50 associates and ensuring guests encounter the purposeful service for which Hyatt Place is known. Mejia is responsible for providing sales service and support to travelers and meeting planners frequenting the La Paz area.
Hyatt Place La Paz opens eight months after the first Hyatt Place hotel, Hyatt Place Los Cabos, opened in Mexico. Hyatt has previously announced additional Hyatt Place hotels in Mexico, including Tijuana, Baja California; and Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche.
The growing appeal of the Hyatt Place brand among business and leisure travelers visiting Latin America and the Caribbean is fueling this growth in the region. Hyatt Place is currently represented in Costa Rica, Chile and Puerto Rico. Previously announced Hyatt Place hotels are under development in Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, and Brazil.
