Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and Palladium Hotel Group, one of the largest Spanish hotel companies, have entered into a commercial alliance that will add more than 6,500 rooms to Wyndham’s Registry Collection.
The 14 all-inclusive TRS Hotels and Grand Palladium Hotels & Resorts managed by Palladium Hotel Group are located in Mexico, Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Brazil, and will join Wyndham’s portfolio under a long-term agreement leveraging Wyndham’s extensive distribution and bringing Wyndham’s all-inclusive resort portfolio to 26 hotels.
“Expanding Registry Collection Hotels continues Wyndham’s global growth in the luxury space and grants more travelers access to new, preeminent experiences in some of the most remarkable destinations,” said Geoffrey A. Ballotti, president/CEO, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “These unique, all-inclusive hotels are designed to ensure that guests—whether redeeming Wyndham Rewards points or booking directly—will enjoy an elevated vacation.”
Jesús Sobrino, CEO, Palladium Hotel Group, added, “This agreement with a hotel company that has one of the greatest distribution capacities in the U.S. is a great pairing for us. This alliance is part of our commitment to the American market due to its proximity and great air connectivity with the Caribbean destinations where we operate. We are also very pleased to add synergies between our Palladium Rewards program and Wyndham Rewards, recognized as one of the top loyalty programs in the industry. As a hotel management company, thanks to this agreement, we improve our value proposition to owners, as we add to it a great know-how and experience of operating all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean.”
Registry Collection Hotels is a selection of hotels “handpicked for their incredible experiences in spectacular destinations with an unmistakable individuality, elevated by thoughtful design and world-class service,” according to Wyndham. As part of the agreement, Palladium’s two all-inclusive luxury brands Grand Palladium Hotels & Resorts and TRS Hotels will join Wyndham’s Registry Collection brand. These include:

By joining the Registry Collection, Palladium Hotel Group’s hotels will maintain their spirit and unique individuality, while tapping into the global scale of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and the Wyndham Rewards loyalty program with more than 94 million enrolled members.
