Development

In 2016 Signa (Signa Development Selection and Signa Real Estate Management) and an affiliate of Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced a 50:50 joint venture for the development of Andaz Vienna.

Following the successful opening of Park Hyatt Vienna, "Andaz Am Belvedere Vienna" is the second collaboration between Signa and Hyatt.

“The great success we’ve seen with Park Hyatt Vienna is further evidence that Hyatt is the right brand for us”, said at that time Christoph Stadlhuber, CEO of Signa Holding.

“Our work together will highlight both of our respective strengths – Hyatt is a high-quality, global and trusted brand that is well-known for its operational excellence At the same time, Signa can leverage its experience of successfully realizing outstanding real estate developments in major urban centres, comprising office blocks and towers, large residential developments, shopping centres as well as hotels. We both feel that the Andaz brand is an ideal fit for the modern and outstanding architecture of the Renzo Piano Building Workshop in the wonderful city of Vienna.”

“This is an incredibly important development for Vienna, with the Belvedere Quarter set to become a sought-after destination in the city,” said Peter Norman, senior vice president of acquisitions and development for Hyatt – Europe, Africa and Middle East.

"It also represents an exciting opportunity to extend the successful collaboration between Signa and Hyatt and to bring our customers the luxury and creative inspiration that the Andaz brand is known for.”
