The new properties bring the Trademark Hotel Collection in the U.S to 15 hotels and more than 2,000 rooms.

Established last year, Trademark is designed to be a group of upper-midscale-and-above hotels that are known for having an independent spirit and individuality. It’s Wyndham’s first soft brand geared to independent hoteliers with landmark three- and four-star hotels designed for everyday travelers seeking unique accommodations.

Globally, there are nearly 70 hotels in the Trademark Collection.

“Trademark offers entrepreneurial hoteliers a unique opportunity to tap into a hospitality mega-network without sacrificing their hotels’ distinct character and authenticity, which draws travelers through their doors,” Chip Ohlsson, executive vice president and chief development officer, North America, said in a statement. “The surge of owners joining the Trademark family is a testament to their desire to be part of something greater, as well as to Wyndham’s steadfast commitment and track record of delivering for its owners.”

Demand for soft-branded hotels continues gaining momentum in 2018, Wyndham said.

According to STR, last year’s soft branded occupancies topped 66 to 70 percent compared to 62 to 67 percent for hard brands and 63 percent for independent properties.
