Hyatt Hotels Destination Specific Music Downloads

Hyatt Hotels & Resorts is on to something interesting with its new digital download music pilot program at Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort and Spa at Gainey Ranch and Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort and Spa. With this program, individual properties will offer unique, destination-specific music collections for guests. Each property’s signature collection will be available online for users to download in MP3 format so guests can bring their Hyatt experience home. Hyatt plans to roll out the new digital download program to its properties across North America and the Caribbean throughout 2007.

Hyatt music collection gift cards can be purchased at the hotel or at the property’s individual websites. (The flagship collections are at www.scottsdale.hyatt.com and www.lostpines.hyatt.com. Visitors to the websites can listen to the tracks, purchase full collections by credit card, or purchase gift certificates for the collections. Unfortunately, tracks are not sold individually.

To allow guests to listen to their new purchases in the hotel, Hyatt is introducing the new iHome™ Clock Radios in guest rooms. The radios, similar to those at the Doubletree, which features an iPod® docking station. In addition the iHome offers great speakers, seven time zone settings and an alarm reset feature so the clock automatically resets the alarm for the same time the next day.

I like the Hyatt. I like the White Ginger soap.
