90-property Hawthorn Suites® by Wyndham Brand


 
PARSIPPANY, N.J. (Oct. 19, 2009) � Wyndham Hotel Group, the world�s largest hotel company with more than 7,000 hotels and 11 brands, has appointed Andrew Stull as vice president of operations for the 90-property Hawthorn Suites® by Wyndham brand. 

In his new role, Stull will be responsible for the oversight and execution of key strategic goals for the Hawthorn Suites by Wyndham brand, serving as the primary point of contact for hotel operational issues, focusing on guest satisfaction and franchisee needs.

Prior to joining Wyndham Hotel Group, Stull served in management and director level operations roles for various companies in the hospitality and service industries, including more than 13 years with Extended Stay Hotels, the hotel management company responsible for operating nearly 700 hotels throughout the U.S and Canada, including those making up the Extended Stay Deluxe® and Extended Stay America® hotel chains. 

Most recently, Stull was responsible for the facilities and grounds operations of 68 schools throughout the state of New Jersey for Philadelphia based ARAMARK Education.

�Andy is an accomplished and talented hospitality professional who has a long history of working in the extended-stay arena,� said Bill Hall, Hawthorn Suites brand senior vice president. �His experience and guidance will prove to be crucial as we finish transitioning the Hawthorn Suites brand into the �by Wyndham� family.�

The affiliation is designed to leverage marketing, sales and training across all three brands while broadening the overall consumer base. 

To formalize the affiliation, the brand will have a new refreshed red and orange brand logo that incorporates key design elements of the Wyndham logo.
