This milestone follows several other significant openings in 2018 across the region, including new hotels in the UAE, India, and three additional hotels in Saudi Arabia, further strengthening the diverse offering of brands and destinations.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts strategically united the broader MEA region in 2018, in recognition of the strong economic ties between India and the Middle East, as well as Wyndham’s strong growth opportunities in both of these important markets. Wyndham’s regional portfolio in MEA is comprised of nearly 15,000 rooms across 19 countries, under 10 brands designed to meet the needs of all types of travellers.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts’ 100th hotel in MEA, Wyndham Garden Dammam, opened its doors in December 2018. Marking the introduction of the Wyndham Garden brand in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the opening further strengthened Wyndham Hotels & Resorts’ portfolio in this key growth market, now including 15 operational hotels and over 2,300 rooms.
