Wyndham Hotels & Resorts signed approximately 100 new hotel contracts across Asia-Pacific during the first half of 2026, as the group continued its expansion across the region.
Nearly 60 new hotels comprising more than 8,800 rooms opened during the six months, contributing to 12 per cent year-on-year net room growth.
By the end of the first half, Wyndham operated approximately 950 hotels and 184,000 rooms across Asia-Pacific, excluding Super 8 properties in China.
Greater China accounted for the majority of new agreements, with Wyndham signing nearly 80 contracts representing more than 8,600 direct-franchised rooms.
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts Asia-Pacific president Joon Aun OOI says the performance reflects continued confidence from hotel owners.
“Our first-half performance is a strong reflection of the trust our owners place in Wyndham’s brands, platform and capabilities.
“Across Asia Pacific, we continue to grow with discipline by expanding our multi-brand portfolio, enhancing our franchise platform and creating new opportunities that deliver long-term value for our stakeholders.”
Wyndham’s Asia-Pacific leadership has also been engaging with owners and partners across the region, with global president and chief executive Geoff Ballotti and OOI among senior executives who visited New Zealand and Singapore earlier this year.
First-half openings included Wyndham’s first Vienna House property in Asia-Pacific, in Vietnam, and the debut of Wyndham Garden in the Philippines.
The company says it plans to continue expanding across gateway cities, emerging destinations and high-growth leisure markets throughout Asia-Pacific.
