Coronavirus: Hyatt Will Require Guests To Wear Face Masks

A few days ago, Marriott announced that guests would soon be required to wear face masks while indoors at all Marriott hotels. Now Hyatt is following suit.

As of July 27, 2020, Hyatt will require guests at all hotels and resorts in both the United States and Canada to wear facial coverings in all indoor public spaces.

Hyatt defines public areas as including hotel lobbies, meeting and event spaces, restaurants and bars, and fitness centers. Hyatt notes that some guests may be exempt from this mandate, including guests with medical conditions, guests consuming food or beverages in restaurants, and children under the age of two.

Since Hyatt made this announcement, IHG has also mandated face masks.
