GALVESTON, TX-Dallas-based Wyndham International Inc. has secured an additional five-year contract to manage three Galveston hotels. The new management pacts are for Hotel Galvez, a 231-room historical icon on the island, the 117-room Tremont House on the Galveston Strand and 42-room Harbor House, a non-proprietary branded property. Jeff Wagoner, Wyndham’s senior vice president of operations, tells GlobeSt.com that his company took over management of the hotels from owners, 1870 Strand Corp., an entity of the Mitchell family, in 1997. The Hotel Galvez and Tremont House were reflagged to carry the Wyndham name in July 1998.

Todd Mitchell, president of 1870 Strand Corp., says he has been impressed with Wyndham’s tenure thus far. “Our relationship with Wyndham affords our hotels numerous advantages,” he says, “including access to an advanced reservation system, national marketing and advertising programs and purchasing savings.”
