Under Canvas expands to New Mexico; weekly hotel roundup includes Deer Valley Hilton
Under Canvas, the upscale glamping brand affiliated with World of Hyatt, has announced a new location in New Mexico, adding to its portfolio of outdoor lodging sites. The weekly hotel news column also covers the opening of a more budget-friendly Hilton property in Deer Valley and other industry updates. This roundup aims to keep travelers informed about recent developments in the hotel sector.
Under Canvas's Santa Fe opening next April marks the glamping brand's first New Mexico location and introduces new features including saunas and temperature-controlled hard-sided cabins. The World of Hyatt-affiliated company lists cash rates from roughly $224 per night, though award bookings are not yet available.
Canopy by Hilton Deer Valley has opened at the Utah resort's base, steps from the Jordanelle Express Gondola. The 180-room property includes four food-and-beverage venues, a sauna, steam room, and fitness center. Off-season rates start at $181, climbing past $600 during ski season, with Hilton Honors redemptions from 58,000 to 85,000 points. Wyndham Rewards' new four-tier award chart also took effect Sept. 15, lowering entry-level redemptions to 5,000 points.
This weekly hotel roundup reflects a hospitality market broadening its appeal across price points and travel styles. Under Canvas's expansion into New Mexico could draw outdoors-oriented travelers who previously avoided traditional camping, while the Deer Valley Canopy opening may make ski destinations more attainable for mid-budget visitors. Wyndham's reduced entry-level award tier could benefit points collectors seeking affordable redemptions. Together, these developments suggest an industry responding to varied consumer preferences, potentially reshaping how travelers plan and book lodging.
