Miami, Florida – 21 November 2017 –
Wyndham Hotel Group announced plans to develop the first dual-brand project in Miami, a 200-key Wyndham Grand and a 245-room Try by Wyndham. Owned by Brazilian developer Galwan and designed by award-winning firm Aquitechtonica, the agreement comprises 445 guest rooms in Miami’s trendy Brickell neighbourhood. The hotel, expected to open in late 2019, is the first U.S. development for Galwan.
Today, nearly 400 dual-branded hotels are open or under construction in the U.S., That number is projected to grow at a rapid pace over the next several years as travellers seek personalized experiences – the choice of brands allows guests to customize their trip without sacrificing convenience. By combining two distinct brands in different segments, Wyndham Hotel Group maximizes its presence in the city while offering guests the exclusivity and aspirational experience they crave.
The 41-story hotel will offer 200 rooms under Wyndham Grand and 245 rooms under Tryp by Wyndham, including the brand’s signature family rooms with extra space and bunk beds for kids. The hotels share a lobby and lounge space on the first floor, an eight-story parking garage, a pool deck, a fitness centre and 8,000 sq. ft. of meeting space including a library, boardroom and flexible event spaces. The hotel’s rooftop will feature a three-meal restaurant and bar inspired by the Tryp brand’s Mediterranean roots.
The worldly, upper-upscale Wyndham Grand brand offers an unpretentious and approachable atmosphere with local culture and style infused into each hotel and resort. The brand welcomes travellers to sought-after destinations around the world like Athens, Phuket, Shanghai, Istanbul, Chicago, and Frankfurt. This will be the brand’s fourth hotel in Florida, joining established resorts in Clearwater Beach, Orlando and Jupiter.
Tryp by Wyndham is powered by the pulse of the city it inhabits, offering travellers an insider’s look at a destination’s uniqueness in some of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities including Abu Dhabi, Brisbane, Barcelona, New York City, Paris, and Sao Paulo. The hotel adds to Tryp’s existing portfolio in Florida which includes locations in Fort Lauderdale and St. Augustine. Most recently the bra
