An agreement has been solidified for a new La Quinta by Wyndham hotel in Miches, Dominican Republic alongside the ambassador of the Dominican Republic Mr. Francisco A. Caraballo. This marks the first time a midscale American brand has entered this rapidly growing destination. The new hotel will join 900 worldwide La Quinta hotels and its two sister properties, La Quinta Puerto Plata and La Quinta San Francisco de Macoris, bringing the total number of La Quinta Hotel rooms in the Dominican Republic to 292 by the end of 2026.
The La Quinta by Wyndham hotel in Miches is one of the smaller hotels in the La Quinta network, which is expected to grow to a total of 6 hotels by 2030. The hotel offers 79 rooms, with large open spaces for co-working, breakfast, small meetings, and events. Additionally, there is a wellness center and a pool available for guests to enjoy.
During the construction of the hotel, it will immediately create 200 additional jobs for the area. This adds to the other 450 jobs that were already created during the construction phase of La Quinta Puerto Plata and La Quinta San Francisco de Macoris. In total, direct 650 and roughly over 1000 plus indirect jobs will be derived from the entry of the La Quinta brand into the country.
It was announced during the ITB Berlin Convention, the largest travel trade tourism fair in the world, that Grupo 7Palms, led by brothers Carlos Bernardo and Carlos Rafael Manzano, along with Edward De Valle Chairman of Grupo De Valle, the master franchisee of La Quinta by Wyndham in the Dominican Republic agreed to move forward with the deal.
“What better place to sign an agreement for our third La Quinta by Wyndham in the Dominican Republic, where once again, the Minister of Tourism of the Dominican Republic, Mr. David Collado, is making a competitive move to dominate the Dominican Republic’s share of the German, and other European markets”. Said Edward De Valle
“On November 9, 1989, the fall of the Berlin Wall occurred, opening a new stage of unity and brotherhood for this great nation. In the same way, today the ties of hotel tourism are strengthened between Miches and our beautiful people of the area; and what better scenario than the ITB-Berlin to sign an agreement for the third La Quinta by Wyndham hotel in the Dominican Republic at the time of greatest growth in tourism in the country, thanks to the management of Minister David Collado,” indicated the brothers Carlos Bernardo and Carlos Rafael Manzano, CEO of the 7Palms Group.
