PHOENIX, Feb. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- BWH Hotel Group continues to broaden its appeal to travelers and developers with its expanding footprint of soft brand hotels across its portfolio of offerings. Through expansion, new launches, and acquisitions, BWH Hotel Group now offers seven soft brand options ranging from economy to luxury, providing unique experiences that suit the needs of every type of traveler and developer.
The global hospitality powerhouse currently boasts approximately 500 active soft brand hotels and resorts worldwide, with over 110 new properties in the global pipeline. In the last four months alone, BWH Hotel Group has activated over 30 soft brand hotels around the world.
"The needs and preferences of today's travelers and developers are constantly evolving, and we are committed to exceeding their expectations," adds Larry Cuculic, President and Chief Executive Officer, BWH Hotel Group. "I am proud of our wide-reaching portfolio, with seven soft brand offerings and 18 total brands across every chain scale segment, and I am confident that our flexible and modern hotel solutions will continue to excite developers, drive revenue to our hotels, and entice guests to experience our unique properties across the globe."
"The growth we have seen across our portfolio of soft brands is truly outstanding and we don't anticipate it slowing down any time soon," said Brad LeBlanc, Senior Vice President and Chief Development Officer, BWH Hotel Group. "Many soft brand properties have been fortunate to have weathered the pandemic better than their branded counterparts because these hotel options are becoming increasingly more appealing in today's environment – developers seek more independence and creativity in their hotels, while travelers look for more authentic travel experiences.
