Kissel - Uptown Oakland
The Unbound Collection by Hyatt · Hyatt Hotels Corporation
Who runs this hotel?
Three different companies can sit behind one hotel. How this works
- OperatorThe company responsible for the hotel's day-to-day operations — hiring and training staff, service, food and beverage, housekeeping and revenue management. It can be different from both the owner and the brand.
- Evolution Hospitality →
- BrandThe name on the door. The brand company sets standards and supplies the reservation system and loyalty programme — but it does not always run the hotel itself.
- The Unbound Collection by Hyatt → · Hyatt Hotels Corporation
- Management model
- Third-party operated by Evolution Hospitality
Not the brand company — The Unbound Collection by Hyatt supplies the name; Evolution Hospitality runs the hotel.
