Wyndham Hotels & Resorts will further expand into the emerging tourism market of Piraeus from 2026, as it signed a cooperation agreement with the construction company Zafido Holding Ltd for the creation of the TRYP by Wyndham Piraeus Port Hotel.

The new hotel, which is being developed by the owner company Zafido Holding Ltd, is scheduled to open in September 2026 in a building complex on Kolokotroni 83 and Sotiros Dios streets. With a capacity of 65 rooms, the new hotel unit in Piraeus will feature, among other things, a restaurant - bar, and a gym.

Mr. Vasilis Themelidis, Regional Director for Southern and Eastern Europe at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, said:

“The agreement between Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company, and Zafido Holding Ltd, which is implementing dynamic business plans in the hospitality sector, is a recipe for success for the operation of a distinctive hotel in the emerging market of Piraeus, which we believe will be a leading destination in the hospitality sector in the coming years. At the same time, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is further expanding its presence in Attica, broadening its network of partners with a company that implements quality investments.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, already having a strong position among international hotel brands with operations in Greece, has the unique advantage, among other things, of its successful partnerships, of approximately 112 million registered members in its customer loyalty program. The largest number of members comes from the USA, a particularly important tourist market for Greece that continues to move with increasing numbers both in terms of arrivals and travel receipts”.
