According to a recent company announcement, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts added more than 4,700 rooms across over 60 new hotels, driving a 5% year-over-year organic growth in the EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) region. This growth was accompanied by 27 new agreements in the area, reinforcing the company’s focus on high-growth markets and expanding access to quality, branded accommodations for travelers throughout the region.
Notable additions include the Dolce by Wyndham Siracusa, Monasteri Golf and Spa in Sicily, and the Signature Cave Cappadocia, Trademark Collection by Wyndham in Turkey, both offering unique stays in some of the region’s most captivating destinations. Wyndham also launched new properties in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, with new openings in Georgia, Romania, and Kazakhstan. The company accelerated its presence in Eurasia with 21 new hotels opened in the first half of the year, expanding the regional portfolio to over 90 hotels—predominantly in India, one of the world’s most dynamic and fastest-growing hospitality markets.
Wyndham’s strategic development partnerships played a crucial role in advancing brand growth, introducing the globally recognized Super 8 by Wyndham brand to two high-demand markets: the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Iberian Peninsula.
Dimitris Manikis, President of Europe, Middle East, Eurasia, and Africa at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, commented:
“With over 720 hotels now open in the EMEA region, we are witnessing incredible momentum. Travel is booming, and we are meeting this demand with a growing portfolio that reflects the energy and diversity of the region. From stunning resorts in Sicily to unique cave accommodations in Cappadocia, we are adding experiences that truly inspire. With new agreements in markets such as Iberia and Saudi Arabia, we are not only expanding but also creating new opportunities for our partners and offering travelers even more exceptional places to stay in the region.”
The announcement further highlighted that this regional expansion contributed to a 4% year-over-year global organic growth in net rooms, marking Wyndham’s 20th consecutive quarter of portfolio growth, reaching a record 255,000 rooms. The EMEA region also reported a strong 7% increase in revenue per available room (RevPAR) on a constant currency basis. Supported by its Owner First franchising approach, Wyndham’s continued expansion underscores the strength of its brand reputation and its long-term commitment to the success of its franchisees and owners.
