HONG KONG, Aug. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Wanda Hotels & Resorts surpassed 300 opened
hotels in August, marking a new stage in the expansion of one of China’s leading
hotel management groups.

Established in 2007, the company provides services spanning hotel design, development
and operations. Its portfolio covers luxury, upscale and mid-scale properties, ranging
from hotels in major cities to resorts in popular tourism destinations.

The company currently operates more than 300 hotels with over 52,000 rooms, and 
has more than 500 additional properties in its development pipeline. Its projects
extend across more than 400 destinations worldwide.

Li Jun, president of Wanda Hotels & Resorts, said the 300-hotel milestone reflects
the company’s expanding brand portfolio, integrated capabilities across the hotel
life cycle, and long-term focus on the Chinese hospitality market.

The company has also accelerated its international expansion. In the first half 
of 2026, it signed a management agreement in Zimbabwe, marking its entry into the
African market. It also added projects in Cambodia and Laos, including hotels in
Sihanoukville, Phnom Penh and Luang Prabang.

The expansion builds on Wanda Hotels’ existing overseas presence in destinations
including Istanbul, Türkiye; Bangkok and Chiang Mai, Thailand; and Vientiane, Laos.
The company has adopted an asset-light management model to expand its brands while
adapting operations to local markets.

Domestic growth has increasingly focused on integrated tourism and hospitality projects.
In the winter tourism sector, the company has expanded its operations beyond Changbaishan
Wanda International Resort to a broader model that combines skiing, wellness, hot
springs, and family tourism. Related projects are being developed in Jilin province
and other destinations.

Wanda Hotels has also incorporated local cultural resources into tourism projects.
In Danzhai, Guizhou province, its operations combine Miao ethnic intangible cultural
heritage with accommodation and educational experiences. In Yuxi, Yunnan province,
a project centered on the legacy of composer Nie Er integrates music, cultural experiences,
retail, and accommodation.

As of August, the company’s loyalty program had more than 25 million members. Since
joining Tongcheng Travel in October 2025, Wanda Hotels has also sought to expand
its distribution channels and digital capabilities through cooperation with the 
travel platform.
