Wyndham Adds Seven Hotels Owned by The Thrash Group to its Namesake Brand

PARSIPPANY, N.J. — Wyndham Hotels & Resorts announced plans for further growth with seven new hotel franchise agreements for its namesake Wyndham brand in the United States. The hotels are owned by national hotel development company, The Thrash Group, and managed by Charlestowne Hotels. The properties include The Thrash Group’s Origin Hotel Collection, consisting of five lifestyle hotels as well as one historic hotel and a new-construction hotel, all of which will operate under the upscale Wyndham brand umbrella.

“We are thrilled to welcome the Thrash Group to Wyndham. Now more than ever hotels can benefit by working with a brand that travelers know and trust that can generate more visitors to an owner’s property,” said Chip Ohlsson, chief development officer, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “Our global sales, marketing, and loyalty teams are looking forward to helping more travelers discover these award-winning hotels in historic and sought-after leisure destinations across the country.”

“Uniting these hotels under the Wyndham name will help us simplify the operations of our hotels, reduce our costs by leveraging Wyndham’s negotiated discounts with suppliers, and connect us to the award-winning Wyndham Rewards loyalty program,” said Ike Thrash, founding partner, The Thrash Group.

The new hotels include the following.

  • Origin Raleigh, a Wyndham Hotel recently opened in the downtown warehouse district of Raleigh, N.C. The 126-room hotel highlights the culture and community of the city. As one of the first boutique, lifestyle hotel experiences in the growing neighborhood, the hotel is designed to connect its guests to the essential spirit of Raleigh. Property highlights include a lobby bar, fitness center, meeting and event spaces, a locally curated retail area, and an onsite restaurant, Good Day Good Night, which has a plant-forward menu.
