Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has signed an exclusive development agreement with NILE Hospitality LLP to introduce its Microtel by Wyndham brand to India, marking the eighth Wyndham brand to debut in the country. This strategic alliance enables Wyndham to leverage a leading regional third-party developer and operator to bring its award-winning brand to India.
With Wyndham’s global presence and NILE’s expertise across India, the Company anticipates opening 40 Microtel hotels by 2031, all of which will be direct franchisees of Wyndham, as part of its ambitious and robust growth strategy. The agreement underscores the Company’s commitment to expanding in one of the world’s most dynamic growing hospitality markets, where it currently has 60 hotels open throughout India and expects to grow by at least 25% in the next 18 months.
A pioneer in efficiency, Microtel by Wyndham is known for its modern design, exceptional service and value driven guest experiences, making it one of the most trusted names in the economy hotel segment. Wyndham’s agreement with NILE will see development of the brand in key Tier II, III and IV cities, in line with India’s infrastructure development cycle, with the first hotels opening in 2025. Each will have a minimum of 50 keys and feature meeting and social spaces, gyms and other facilities based on the needs of the region.
