Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has joined forces with the Portuguese developer Soliteight to launch the Super 8 hotel brand in Spain and Portugal. Over the next decade, the two companies aim to open 40 new hotels across the Iberian Peninsula, beginning with the first location in Leiria, Portugal, which is expected to open by late 2027. The goal of this expansion is to meet the rising demand for affordable and reliable accommodations in key travel and business areas across both countries.

Tourism in Spain and Portugal is booming, and the need for budget-friendly accommodations has never been more urgent. Super 8 is set to grow its presence by opening new hotels in places with steady traffic, including near airports, in bustling business areas, and in smaller cities that offer strong transportation connections. These locations are expected to attract both leisure and business travelers looking for affordable, high-quality lodging options.

This move is set to bring more accessible and affordable hotel choices to locations that have long lacked well-known, budget-friendly options. Budget-conscious travelers often struggle to find dependable and consistent accommodations, especially in smaller towns or regions not well-served by international hotel brands. The introduction of Super 8 hotels will give guests a great combination of comfort and cleanliness, with prime locations perfect for exploring both well-known sights and lesser-known treasures.

Sustainability is another key focus of the project, with the new hotels being built using modular construction methods. This approach helps cut down on environmental impact, which is becoming a more important factor for many travelers these days. The Super 8 expansion prioritizes eco-friendly construction techniques. This is likely to appeal to younger, eco-conscious travelers who value both affordability and sustainability.

Bringing Super 8 to Spain and Portugal is a strategic move to make affordable travel more accessible. With growing demand for budget-friendly accommodations, our collaboration with Soliteight meets this need, offering quality, comfort, and sustainability in key destinations.

With more budget-friendly hotels popping up, travelers to Spain and Portugal can expect to see more competition in the hospitality market. This competition is likely to lead to better prices, better services, and more flexibility, making it easier for travelers to find dependable accommodations without sacrificing quality or convenience.
