Wyndham Grand is the upper-upscale brand of the largest hotel and resort name in the world, growing in 2019.

The brand’s umbrella covers more than 9,000 hotels in more than 80 countries. The new properties for 2019 are coming to California; Cam Ranh, Vietnam; Mexico City; Kayseri, Turkey; Tblisi, Georgia; and Crete, Greece. Two of the new properties, those set for Mexico City and Cam Ranh, will be managed by Wyndham Hotels and Resorts. The six new properties join a portfolio of 39 existing locations in the brand.

“Travelers are seeking out new destinations and crossing borders more than ever before; in the last two decades alone the number of international travelers around the world has more than doubled to nearly 1.3 billion,” said Bob Loewen, COO, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.

The property coming to Wesminster, California, is the brand’s first expansion in the state. This property will feature 144 guestrooms, making it the largest in Westminster.

The Wyndham Grand Cam Ranh is located near a 27-hole golf course and offers multiple restaurants, bars and other luxurious accommodations.

The Wyndham Grand Mexico City La Condesa is a 400-room behemoth and joins a neighborhood with more than 1,500 buildings classified with architectural heritage.

The Wyndham Grand Kayseri opened in mid-January. The property features 205 guestrooms and eight meeting rooms. The hotel also features luxurious amenities like traditional Turkish cuisine, a fitness center and a spa.

Wyndham Grand Tbilsi is set to open this summer in Georgia’s capital, managed by McInerney Hospitality International Georgia.
