Latest Addition Strengthens Wyndham’s Position as Turkey’s Largest International Hotel Chain with 80 Hotels and 8 of the Company’s 20 Iconic Brands, in World’s 20th Largest Economy
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company by number of properties with over 8,900 hotels across nearly 95 countries, is further strengthening its position as Turkey’s largest international hotel chain with the upcoming opening of the newly built Days Hotel by Wyndham Istanbul Maltepe, its first property in the country under the well-known economy brand.
Located close to Maltepe’s business district, several nearby recreational areas and with convenient access to Istanbul’s city centre, the 80-room hotel is slated to open later this summer as travel demand is expected to pick up. It will be complemented by the 176-room Days Hotel by Wyndham Istanbul Esenyurt, a new construction hotel that is part of a mixed-use development scheduled to open in the second part of the year.
Days Inn by Wyndham is one of the largest and most recognized economy hotel brands in the world, with a global portfolio of 1,600 properties.
The new additions are the latest in Wyndham’s expansion in Turkey, where the company is the largest international hotel chain with 80 hotels across the country including cities, resorts and up-and-coming destinations, and a development pipeline of over 2,000 rooms, including five hotels expected to open this year.
Days Inn is the eighth hotel brand Wyndham has launched in Turkey, following the recent debut and expansion of the La Quinta brand in Istanbul, Giresun and Bodrum.
Dimitris Manikis, EMEA President, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, said: “Around the world, Days Inn is renowned for delivering a warm, reliable hospitality and guest experience. With many beautiful and diverse destinations that suit and inspire any type of travellers, Turkey has incredible potential for development. Launching new brands is a key part of our expansion strategy and growth commitment for Turkey, and we are thrilled to introduce Days Inn and bring even more accommodation options into this exciting country.”
The newest additions in Turkey build on the Days Inn brand’s growing presence across Europe, Middle East, Eurasia and Africa (EMEA), including over 50 hotels across the UK, France, Germany, The Netherlands, India, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Azerbaijan, Jordan. The brand is also set to debut in the UAE later this year, with the opening of Days Hotel by Wyndham Dubai Deira.
