Wyndham Hotel Group has signed a franchise agreement for the Wyndham Quito Airport Gran Condor, the first Wyndham Hotels and Resorts property in Ecuador’s capital city.
The full-service, 146-room property, which is owned by Pronobis, is the only hotel on the new international airport grounds. The property is part of an existing deal to develop and franchise eight hotels in the country under Wyndham Hotel Group brands over 10 years.
Upon opening in late 2015, the hotel will be the fifth Wyndham Hotel Group property operating in Ecuador under Pronobis’ ownership, joining the Wyndham Guayaquil, the first Wyndham Hotels and Resorts property to open in Ecuador, and three Howard Johnson hotels currently operating in Quito, Guayaquil, and Loja.
“Featured by Yahoo! Travel as number eight on the ‘hot list’ of the World’s Top 10 Countries and listed as a 2014 top destination by CNN and The New York Times, Ecuador is not only an attractive destination for adventurers but also serves as an excellent showcase for our brands,” says Paulo Pena, president and managing director of Latin America for Wyndham Hotel Group. “We are pleased to expand upon our successful partnership with Pronobis and look forward to continued growth for the Wyndham brand in Ecuador and throughout Latin America.”
Services and amenities will include an onsite restaurant, lobby bar, pool, gym, and spa facilities as well as four meeting rooms that can be converted to a large conference room. The hotel’s design is inspired by the Condor bird, a symbol of the country’s heritage.
