Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company with 25 brands and approximately 9,300 hotels, continued robust growth across Asia Pacific, unveiling today the region’s full-year results for 2024. Among the highlights: the Company awarded 286 contracts, opened 220 new hotels and registered 9% Y-O-Y net room growth, equivalent to approximately 19,000 rooms.

In 2024, the global travel market experienced a strong recovery, with the Asia-Pacific region becoming a key driver with a significant increase in market passenger traffic. Within the region, China effectively boosted the rapid recovery of the inbound tourism market by relaxing and help optimizing entry visa policies, injecting new vitality into the entire Asia-Pacific region. As of year-end 2024, Wyndham has over 1,870 open hotels across Asia Pacific. Wyndham’s commitment to growth in the region was further emphasized last month by a visit from Geoff Ballotti, President and CEO, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.

During 17- 21 February 2025, Geoff visited four influential cities in the Asia-Pacific region—Shanghai, Taipei, Bangkok, and Singapore—where he participated in more than 20 project signing ceremonies and engaged in meetings with over 100 hotel owners from across the region.
