The Hyatt Regency Dearborn is a major hotel and conference center located in the Metro Detroit suburb of Dearborn, Michigan at 600 Town Center Drive, near the intersection of Michigan State Highway 39 and U.S. Route 12.

The building was constructed in 1976 and recently remodeled. It is fourteen stories and has 772 rooms.

The high-rise is used mainly as a hotel, conference center, restaurant, retail area, and fitness center. It was designed in the postmodern architectural style, and the exterior of the building is constructed mainly out of glass. The architect was Charles Luckman. Previously, the hotel was connected to a nearby shopping mall, Fairlane Town Center, via an elevated driverless rail vehicle system.
