Best Wyndham Hotels & Resorts

Recent guests love the Old World charm of The Mining Exchange, A Wyndham Grand Hotel located in downtown Colorado Springs. Built in the early 20th century as a stock exchange for mining companies, the hotel maintains its historic elegance with high ceilings and exposed brick walls. But even though this Wyndham outpost proudly celebrates its heritage, the hotel isn't stuck in the past: Rooms feature flat-screen TVs, iHome radios and complimentary Wi-Fi. When you're not relaxing in your comfy digs, recent visitors suggest you take advantage of the hotel's central location. For starters, The Mining Exchange is less than a half-mile north of the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum. You're also near plenty of downtown restaurants, but guests speak highly of the on-site eatery, Springs Orleans, which offers local dishes sprinkled with Cajun flavor. Recent guests also had high praise for the stellar customer service. What's more, Wyndham Rewards members can cash in points here for free nights or earn points for future stays.

With a prime location in downtown Chicago, the Wyndham Grand Chicago Riverfront delivers on its name, offering sweeping views of the Chicago River and city skyline, plus easy access to many area attractions. Whether in town for business or pleasure, guests will appreciate amenities like a fitness center and business center, both open 24 hours a day, in addition to the on-site restaurant, Hoyt's Modern American Tavern. (Recent travelers suggested the pretzel bites with cheese dip for a starter.) When it's time to sleep, guests will find oversized accommodations that include sitting areas and large picture windows, along with amenities like flat-screen TVs, minifridges, Keurig coffee makers and complimentary internet access. Guests describe the rooms as comfortable and the location as ideal. Plus, those who are members of the Wyndham Rewards program can earn and use points here. 

Surrounded by Bonnet Creek and situated about 10 miles southwest of the Orange Country Convention Center and 20 miles southwest of downtown Orlando, the Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort Bonnet Creek is a relaxing – and business-appropriate – alternative to the neighboring Disney resorts. This Wyndham resort caters to both working and leisure travelers: While the hotel boasts 32,000 square feet of event space and a business center with computer access, it also offers the Blue Harmony Spa and shuttle service to transport guests to and from Walt Disney World theme parks (included in the property's daily $25 resort fee). Whether visitors spend their day at the Magic Kingdom or in a meeting, they can catch a break in one of the lounge chairs that line the lagoon-style pool. The Wyndham Grand Orlando Resort also features four dining venues, although some previous guests noted that menu items here can be pricey. However, the rooms earn praise for their style, size and amenities, which include internet access.

Most recent guests praise The Mills House Hotel's quaint accommodations, ideal location and delicious food. Sandwiched between some of Charleston's most intriguing museums and galleries on Meeting Street, Mills is also an easy walk to The Calhoun Mansion and the Nathaniel Russell House. Besides the rooms featuring coffee makers, nightly turndown service and complimentary daily newspapers, this hotel also has an outdoor pool, a well-dressed courtyard and the visitor-approved Barbadoes Room restaurant. Several guests express disappointment on having to pay up to $32 a day for parking. One other thing to keep in mind: This hotel was originally built in 1853, meaning its rooms and bathrooms are smaller than its contemporary counterparts.

Recent guests of the Wyndham Grand Jupiter at Harbourside Place praise this Wyndham outpost for its helpful staff, attractive decor and spacious rooms. But it's the location that keeps bringing visitors back to this 179-room property. Situated alongside Jupiter's Intracoastal Waterway, the Wyndham Grand Jupiter provides guests with prime access to West Palm Beach's high-end shops and dining (around 16 miles south); Jonathan Dickinson State Park's bird-watching and canoeing; and spring training games at Roger Dean Stadium. If you do decide to linger on the property, though, take a dip in the rooftop pool and hot tub, which offer superb views of Jupiter. And when you're looking for some grub, try the on-site Lobby Lounge for breakfast or the Pool Bar for casual American fare. After, retire to your digs, which guests thoroughly enjoyed. All rooms feature a neutral color palette with blue and green accents and include minifridges, flat-screen LCD TVs, Blue Harmony bath products and complimentary Wi-Fi access. And although some visitors said rates at the Wyndham Grand Jupiter seemed high for the area, members of the Wyndham Rewards program can earn or redeem points for free nights to offset costs.

Nirvana for nature lovers, the 80-acre Westward Look Wyndham encompass numerous hiking, biking and horseback riding trails. However, some guests feel that this property is beginning to show its age, noting that it may be time for rooms to get a makeover. Accommodations are decked out in traditional Southwestern patterns and feature private balconies or patios, flat-panel televisions and wireless internet access (covered by the $20 per night resort fee). Meanwhile, there's also the Sonoran Spa and an outdoor pool, which provides a peaceful setting for sunbathers. Though you may be a ways from downtown, you won't have to worry about going hungry: Westward Look is home to multiple restaurants, including Lookout, which serves Southwestern flavors. But what really gets guests excited are the rates, which many say are lower than other Tucson resorts.

Occupying 1,200 acres of prime real estate north of downtown Napa, this resort is one of the area's largest. The resort is so big actually that guests can choose to stay in a specific neighborhood such as the central Cottage Drive or the gated communities of The Grove or Oak Creek East. No matter which place you choose to stay, all rooms here come with amenities such as Egyptian cotton sheets, Wi-Fi access, coffee bars and TVs with premium movie channels. Guests can grab a meal at one of the on-site eateries before enjoying the in-house spa, tennis courts or outdoor pools on-site. On the other hand, Silverado's two golf courses receive plenty of praise, and many visitors claim that the views from their private balconies or terraces were worth writing home about.

This historic hotel in central Galveston (52 miles southeast of Houston) celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2001, yet it's hardly showing its age. Though they are fairly small, Hotel Galvez's guest rooms all feature contemporary luxuries like iPod docking stations and complimentary in-room Wi-Fi. And on-site amenities – like the spa and the heated outdoor pool (which the Hotel Galvez shares with its sister Wyndham property, The Tremont House) – are as modern as they come. Recent guests were impressed by the Galvez Bar & Grill, which serves traditional southern Texas food with ingredients like cilantro and roasted corn. And the restaurant's Sunday Champagne brunch is a hit. But according to previous travelers, the real star of the hotel is the staff, who provide friendly and accommodating Southern hospitality. Some visitors, though, do warn to drive or opt for a cab because the area around the hotel can get sketchy after dark. And for those who are Wyndham Rewards members, you can earn and redeem rewards points during your stay thanks to the property's Wyndham affiliation.
