Wyndham Hotel Group has announced plans for the first TRYP by Wyndham hotel in the Middle East, following the signing of a management agreement with Omega I, a subsidiary of British-owned developer The First Group.
The property is currently planned to be the select-service brand’s largest in the world upon opening in Dubai, anticipated for late 2016.
The announcement, which will see the 672-room TRYP by Wyndham Dubai developed in the city’s TECOM district, comes just months after the two companies revealed plans to introduce the first upscale Wyndham Hotels and Resorts property to the UAE in Dubai Marina in the next three years.
Through the addition of TRYP by Wyndham Dubai, Wyndham Hotel Group said it will offer travellers an even greater choice of hotel experiences and price points in the Middle East with over 30 hotels across multiple brands currently open and operating.
“With such a diverse portfolio of brands, Wyndham Hotel Group offers a unique breadth of choice and the benefits of Wyndham Rewards, the world’s largest hotel loyalty programme by number of participating hotels,” said Rui Barros, Wyndham Hotel Group’s senior vice president and managing director for Europe, Middle East and Africa.
“We are thrilled to deliver these hotels through strong partnerships with companies such as The First Group, which share our ambition and passion for creating great guest experiences for business and leisure travellers around the world.”
The four-star TRYP by Wyndham Dubai will be located in the heart of the Al Barsha South business district.
Hotel facilities will include expansive meeting space, a spa and gymnasium and a wide variety of food and beverage outlets including all-day dining and speciality restaurants, as well as a coffee shop, lounge area and bar.
With construction already underway, the hotel is expected to create some 500 jobs in the city.
“We are delighted about our expanding partnership with Wyndham Hotel Group and what it will mean for our owners,” said The First Group’s co-founder and joint-chairman, Danny Lubert.
