Wyndham Signs Quito Airport Hotel

Wyndham has signed a franchise agreement for the very first Wyndham Hotels and Resorts property in Ecuador’s capital city, Quito.

The full-service, 146-room Wyndham Quito Airport Gran Condor, 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 developed and operated by Pronobis, 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.

Wyndham Quito Airport Gran Condor will be situated within the Mariscal Sucre International Airport development, allowing travelers easy access to the airport and central Quito.

Services and amenities will include an onsite restaurant, lobby bar, pool, gym and spa facilities.

The hotel will also offer four 77-square-meter meeting rooms that can be converted to a large 300-square-meter conference room.

“We are convinced of Ecuador’s great potential in tourism and are delighted to strengthen our relationship with our partner Wyndham Hotel Group,” said Sergio Torassa, CEO of Pronobis. “The hotel’s spectacular design is inspired by the Condor; this bird is a symbol of our country’s heritage and plays an important role in Andean region mythology. It will be an icon and a very distinctive element when our guests arrive in Quito.”
