The Wyndham Hotel Group has reached a portfolio of more than 100 German establishments, for more than 14,000 rooms. These include 2 Wyndham Grand hotels, 7 Wyndham hotels, 14 Wyndham Garden establishments, 28 TRYP by Wyndham properties, 43 Ramada establishments, and 9 Days Inn properties. The symbolic number has only been surpassed after a strategic partnership with Grand City Hotels, which saw the development of eight Wyndham establishments. In addition, this partnership has helped Wyndham develop in other markets, such as Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands. Specifically, the group achieved brand introductions of Grand Wyndham in Austria, and TRYP in Belgium and the Netherlands.The Wyndham group's growth in Germany is especially noteworthy because half of this growth was achieved in 2013 alone. "To virtually double the number of our hotels in the space of one year in an established market like Germany is unprecedented", comments Rui Barros, Wyndham Hotel Group's senior vice president and managing director for Europe, Middle East and Africa. Germany is now the Wyndham group's fourth largest market, after the United States (over 5,700 properties), China (over 650 properties) and Canada (about 500 properties).
