Hyatt and Hall Structured Finance Collaborate To Launch Structured Debt Program Supporting Hyatt Studios Newbuild Development

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS (June 18, 2026) - Hyatt and Hall Structured Finance, a leading provider of structured debt solutions for commercial real estate projects, today announced plans for a strategic relationship to provide developers with a dedicated financing solution for Hyatt Studios newbuild developments across the United States. Hyatt Studios is Hyatt's premium upper midscale extended stay brand.

The Hyatt Studios Structured Loan Program will combine the scalable Hyatt Studios brand platform with Hall Structured Finance's more than 30 years of hospitality lending and capital structuring expertise, creating a dedicated financing platform to support the brand's continued expansion across the United States.

Designed specifically for Hyatt Studios projects, the program is intended to help developers overcome financing challenges by providing more efficient access to capital, accelerating project timelines and supporting new construction starts in an increasingly competitive lending environment.

"We are proud to collaborate with Hyatt to support the continued growth of the Hyatt Studios brand that is purpose-built for today's extended-stay demand," said Mark Klipsch, President of Hall Structured Finance. "In a challenging financing environment, we believe this will accelerate the financing of high-quality, newbuild projects. We look forward to leveraging our hospitality lending expertise to help developers bring new Hyatt projects to market and support the Hyatt Studio brand's continued expansion."

Through the Hyatt Studios Structured Loan Program, developers can benefit from financing solutions tailored to support project execution and construction starts, while offering the potential for greater leverage than conventional lending structures at market interest rates, subject to underwriting and project qualifications.

"We continue to see strong interest in the Hyatt Studios brand from developers across the country, and we know that securing the right capital can play a significant role in turning a project from concept to reality," said Dan Hansen, Global Head of Growth Strategy & Operations. "This dedicated loan program with Hall Structured Finance reflects Hyatt's commitment to supporting developers beyond the brand itself. By creating additional financing opportunities for qualified projects, we can help owners move forward with greater confidence and speed to bring Hyatt Studios locations to more markets across the United States."
