Wyndham, Hyson to Launch Ramada Encore Hotel in Kalamassery, Kochi

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has entered into a strategic partnership with Hyson Hospitalities to develop a Ramada Encore hotel at Kalamassery in Kochi, marking another important addition to Kerala’s expanding hospitality landscape. The new hotel, scheduled to open by 2026, will feature 57 well designed rooms and is aimed at catering to the rising demand from business, medical, educational, and leisure travellers.

Located along the fast developing Kalamassery corridor, the upcoming Ramada Encore will benefit from proximity to industrial hubs, healthcare institutions, educational centres, and improved road connectivity. This location has steadily emerged as one of Kochi’s most promising urban growth pockets, driving consistent demand for quality accommodation that balances comfort, accessibility, and value.

The hotel will offer a range of modern amenities aligned with international hospitality benchmarks. Planned facilities include contemporary guest rooms, an all day dining restaurant, a rooftop restaurant, a fitness centre, and dedicated meeting spaces to support corporate and social gatherings. The design and service positioning will reflect the Ramada Encore brand’s focus on efficient, stylish, and guest centric experiences.

P P Fasalu, Director of Hyson Hospitalities, said the partnership aims to deliver a globally benchmarked hospitality offering while contributing meaningfully to Kochi’s evolving accommodation ecosystem. He noted that the project reflects confidence in the city’s long term growth and the sustained demand for professionally managed hotels in emerging urban corridors.

For Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, the Kalamassery project aligns with its broader strategy of expanding midscale brands in high potential Indian cities. The collaboration also strengthens Hyson Hospitalities’ footprint in Kerala, reinforcing its presence in a market witnessing strong demand from domestic and regional travellers.

With industrial expansion, healthcare driven travel, and steady infrastructure improvements shaping Kochi’s growth story, the Ramada Encore Kalamassery is positioned to tap into multiple demand segments. The development underlines the growing attractiveness of Kochi as a hospitality investment destination and highlights the rising preference for reliable midscale hotel brands in urban India.
