She began her visit with Hyatt Regency Malta. During the inspections process, it was noted that the Hyatt Regency did not only reach the five-star level, but exceeded it, to a degree where it could only be granted a certificate to operate as a superior five-star hotel.
The Hyatt International Group has hundreds of hotels around the world, with the Maltese one not only being its most recent, but also gaining traction and importance on an international level.
Julia Farrugia Portelli praised the investment, noting that the hotels, amongst others, managed to turn the COVID-19 challenge into an opportunity, whereby they improved their products and raised the quality of their services, which goes hand in hand with the government’s strategy to achieve sustainable tourism.
