Grand Hyatt Santiago re-opens

SANTIAGO GRAND HYATT, on the outskirts of the city in a quiet residential area, has resumed business after being inspected by structural engineers following the 27 February earthquake.  The engineers have passed the hotel’s structural integrity and all rooms, services, restaurants and spa are now available to guests.  The nearby Santiago International Airport suffered internal and external damage.  Essential repairs have been completed and the airport is once again accepting international and domestic flights.  The port of Valparaiso, a popular cruising terminal, is about 80 miles away down a fine dual carriageway. www.santiago.grand.hyatt.com
