Wyndham Hotels & Resorts expanded significantly in Asia Pacific in 2023, adding nine brands, signing 222 hotels, opening 158, and achieving 7.4% net room growth. The growth highlights Wyndham’s commitment to owner and franchisee success, emphasized by the CEO’s visit and new signings.
SINGAPORE – Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, a hotel franchising company with 24 brands and approximately 9,200 hotels, continues to make impressive gains across Asia Pacific, unveiling today full-year results for the region for 2023. Among the highlights: the Company introduced nine new brands, signed 222 hotels, opened 158 new hotels, and registered 7.4% Y-O-Y net room growth, equivalent to 14,200+ rooms.
Anchored by its OwnerFirstTM approach to franchising, the growth underscores Wyndham’s strong reputation throughout the region and its long-term commitment to helping deliver success for owners and franchisees—a sentiment that was further emphasized this month by a visit to the region from Geoff Ballotti, President, and CEO.
During 4- 7 March 2024, Ballotti visited the Asia Pacific region and participated in 27 signing ceremonies for new hotels – including properties in Greater China, Thailand, Cambodia, among others – while also meeting with more than 30 owners across the region. Wyndham currently has almost 1,800 opened hotels across Asia Pacific.
“Bleisure tourism across the Asia Pacific region continued to recover nicely in 2023, creating unprecedented opportunities for Wyndham and our franchisees. As a result, demand for our 15 brands is as strong as it’s ever been, particularly among hotel owners, who increasingly are recognizing the value of partnering with the world’s largest hotel franchisor. From our award-winning loyalty program, Wyndham Rewards, to our unmatched ability to deliver best-in-class technology, marketing, and distribution—they see the power of the Wyndham Advantage.”, said Mr. Joon Aun OOI, President, Asia Pacific, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.
