Wyndham Expands Asia Pacific Footprint with Ovolo Hotel Partnership

It's the second deal for Wyndham in just a few weeks: One bolsters its budget and midscale footprint in South Asia, the other adds some lifestyle flair across Asia Pacific.

Hong Kong–based Ovolo Group and Wyndham Hotels and Resorts said Tuesday that five Ovolo hotels in Hong Kong and Australia totaling 450 keys will join the Wyndham brand this fall.

The deal includes Ovolo Central in Hong Kong and four Australian properties: Ovolo Woolloomooloo in Sydney, South Yarra in Melbourne, The Valley in Brisbane, and Nishi in Canberra. Each will be branded as "a Wyndham Hotel."

“The deal applies only to Ovolo Hotels, not to Mamaka and other brands within the Ovolo family. Ovolo Group will continue to look for development and asset management opportunities in Asia Pacific and beyond,” Shivang Jhunjhunwala, chief of staff of Ovolo Group, told Skif
