Grand Hyatt Singapore
- Thread starter jenny
- Start date
Hi amkx2,
Didn't you see the actual place before signing your contract? Anyway, there are tv for those that are blocked by the pillars and the deco is good enough already.
Your date is sept this year? Maybe you can check with your coordinator nearer the date to see if the grand ballrooms have been taken up. Then see whether you can just top up a bit to transfer there instead. Cos the Grand is actually made up of 3 partitioned rooms, so if really no one book, may be able to open up 2 and fit about 40-45 tables.

hi ladies, i am lost in considering venues for my AD
hope can get some idea here.. i'm currently consider hyatt as my first choice and would like to hear some comments from you all? how's the ambience? food?
i hear that sir stamford and hibicus rooms are the popular ones? i'm thinking of having 20-25 tables? will it b too few for the 2 rooms?

hi blur,
hyatt's hibiscus and SSR are v cosy.
the ceiling's not high, if you don't mind that, but i think the place emits a v warm kind of feeling.
you hv to go down and see when there's a wedding setup.... makes alot of diff when u see a plain rm and a wedding setup, esp for SSR!
foodwise, i heard fr frens tt hyatt's food is v good. dunno leh.
20-25 tables is just right for hibiscus i think. SSR's min is 25.
hope that helps!

Hi Blur...good to see u in this thread as well...
Yup, oraia is right...Hyatt's ballroom, tho ceiling is low, but it gives off a warm, cosy grand feeling...when the ballroom is all done up, it's really very nice. I think it's even nicer than Marriott...taking into consideration that marriott ballroom has high ceiling.

hiya oraia, bugbear
may i know the reason y high/low ceiling is important? is it because it'll look more grand?
as for deco, do we need to bring our florist or all will b done by hyatt?
do they have individual reception area?
are there any additional cost?

hi blur,
just to supplement what oraia said, the food at hyatt was nice!! that's the comment i got from most of my guests, and one of my halal friend commented that most of the time, when she went to other hotel for banquet, they are kind of chin chai on halal food.. but the one at hyatt is actually good... according to her..
regarding to deco, i just went with what hyatt provided, added nothing on top of that, and i think it was good enough...
and yes, both hibiscus and SSR room have it's own reception area...

Blur, Hyatt's deco is quite nice already...and they have different themes for u to choose from...if you would like somthing different, u can always take to the coordinator or the florists. Sometimes they do not charge any additional...depends on how different u want it to be.
High/low ceiling...most of the time, higher ceiling will give off a more grand feel..but i personally feel that Hyatt ballrooms are very nice...and they all have their own foyer...

hmm..i haf another qn.. let's say the hotel is going to undergo some renovation, do u gers think it's still alright to book them in advance? or should we wait till renovation ends to see how the new place is? but i'm quite worried by then the date i wan will b taken already..
i've also heard that if it's on weekday, sometimes fewer guest will turn up than expected cause sometimes traffic jam and late from work then they jus dun attend already
means i should cater lesser than i expected?

Blur...tendency if u wait till they finish their reno, the package price will also likely to increase...Oriental is an example...their package increased by quite a fair bit leh...
Yah...a lot of ppl also tell me that weekday attendance might be lower...but nowadays attending weekday wedding is so common...so i think most important is to get rsvp lor...even 2 days before or wot...maybe u can do 1 more round of check

oh u mean better for them to finish with the reno before i book with them rite?
hi blur,
usu aft reno the ballroom will look nicer i think. so no worries abt tt. u cld try doing a tentative booking...and at least, if there are ppl who are interested in the ballroom on ur date, the coord will usu call and ask u whether u are still keen...
of cos the later u wait, the more u risk ending up with no venue, esp on a 'hot' date!
which other hotel are u int in at the mo?

Hi Blur...i meant to say that if u really confirmed on that hotel..then go for it...at least u can lock the lower prices...and usually after reno, the ballroom will look better...
Maybe u can do wot oraia suggest...do a tentative booking first..then if so happen there is another couple interested in ur date...the coordinator will call u to confirm if u still want the date.

Blur...i haven settled anything yet...which month u looking at? Don worry...cos i will most probably be taking the grand ballroom...cos i have abt 40-42 tables
Yah...u mentioned abt reno...is hyatt going thru some reno?
I heard from the coord that the price is most likely to stay the same for 2005...but may or may not increase for 2006...so if u wan 2005 date, the price should be the same as now
Me also glad to hear that the food of Hyatt is good...
Yup yup...if u need any alternatives, can let us know ur budget...i do have a list of hotels
Your budget should be about $800 before +++ right?

Hi,
gnu, u booked e same room too? only magnolia room or both?
mine is both rooms on both side of the passageway.... thus the passageway becomes part of the Ballroom
karen, we booked without much observation as the other room was occupied.....in a hurry too cos we left with 5 mths then, so very diff to find gd location at resonable price....provided its the other ballroom instead of my current one.
thank you, will take note of your suggestion to ask the co-ordinator to look out for the grand ballroom....but i only ve less then 40 tables.

Hi hyatt brides,
i am considering hyatt to be my AD but i saw smth like "renovation"
does that means they are going to renovate their ballrooms??
just went down to hyatt yesterday and saw the set up of the grand ball room and think that it was just so nice and perfect with the right ambience. think hyatt has ballrooms that are unique from the rest of the hotels.

Phew......tot they are really going to reno their ballrooms.
went fullerton today and saw one of their ballroom tat looks cosy and classy. but think that ballroom is too small to fit ur 16 tables. cause the max they can fit is 10 tables.
think marina mandarin and meritus madarin have ballrooms that can fit 16 tbs.

sorry sorry.. think made alot of ppl worried when i brought up the reno issue
dun worry
i am just asking a "what if" question
but i am sure even if so, i will b for the better.. no one will reno to make it look worst rite?
hi blur,
hehe, ur mention of "renovation" struck fear in everyone's hearts!
heee....
hi janey,
errm.. u can still use the hibiscus room if u fall short of the minimum no. of tables, but i think u may have to pay abit more per table to make up for the difference...
don't think grand hyatt has any smaller function rooms tho'....

hi amkx2,
Oh, when I went down to see the Hibicus ballroom, my coordinator did not tell me about the other weddings going on but I went around myself to see a garden soleminization and the grand ballrooms. I ask one of the banquet staff about the grand ballroom cos I noticed it was not fully opened up. He told me the set up for that night was only 32 tables. So you can try asking but dunno whether they will require you to top up or not.

Morning Gals!!
Blur...sorry ar...mixed up ur budget
Don worry...so long as the ballroom can accomodate ur numbers...the coordinators will be more than happy to increase the table number for u...so how? confirmed HYatt already? I same as u...max budget of 800nett...so unless Hyatt comes up with a wonderfu promo...else i can only look at weekday...Hyatt weekday menu is actually quite good.
best1208...i totally agree with u. Hyatt ballrooms...be it the grand or the smaller ones...all gives off this cosy grand feeling right? eventhough the ceiling height is low...but the ballroom is just perfect...and i find the deco of hyatt very nice also.

hi oraia,
it is the price that bugbear had stated in her message.
yah u were right bugbear, after going down hyatt to have a look , fell in love with the ballroom. went down 2 weeks ago to see the set up. was a very special set up with black squarish table and a western food menu for the chinese wedding couple. was so classy, stylish and simply fusion.
