Premier meetings brand adds new hotel in Texas with distinctive new destination for unique events, group travel
PARSIPPANY, N.J.(December 16, 2019) – Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (NYSE: WH) – the world’s largest hotel franchising company with more than 9,200 hotels in over 80 countries – today announced the signing of a new-construction Dolce Hotels and Resorts® by Wyndham hotel in Fredericksburg, Texas.
The new hotel is owned by the Baxter Family, founders of Fiesta Winery®, and will be managed by Wyndham’s management arm. The new construction hotel, expected to break ground in early 2020, will be situated on 70 acres adjacent to a Fiesta Winery and will offer 150 rooms with approximately 9,000 square feet of event space, including a tasting room.
“With nearly 1.7 million visitors each year, Texas Hill Country – with a vibrant culture influenced by its German roots celebrating dining, live music, art and historic museums, shopping and its scenic wineries – has become one of the fastest-growing U.S. vacations spots for travelers,” said Chip Ohlsson, chief development officer for Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “It’s the perfect destination for Dolce Hotels & Resorts by Wyndham as we continue to expand the brand to top travel spots for groups, special events, meetings and vacationers looking for curated experiences in inspiring surroundings around the world.”
An hour’s drive from both Austin and San Antonio, the new destination hotel and winery will be set in Fredericksburg, in the heart of Texas wine country, near restaurants, retail shops and scenic lakefront landscapes. Fredericksburg, originally settled by German immigrants in the 1840s, retains much of its German architecture, culture and tradition alongside modern upscale dining and shopping as well as a burgeoning art scene and growing wine industry.
Dolce by Wyndham is designed to inspire creativity, with state-of-the-art meeting spaces, artisan cuisine and dynamic activities in breathtaking surroundings. The brand is enhancing its portfolio for groups and meetings around the world with new hotels in Hanoi, Vietnam; Versailles, France; Akti, Greece; and Copenhagen and Arhaus, Denmark. Earlier this year, Dolce hotels around the world debuted a new signature amenity: Due by Dolce handcrafted biscotti, a recipe created by one of the brand’s world-class chefs to inspire guests to savor every moment.
Fiesta Winery was first created on Baxter Ranch, land that has been passed down through the Baxter family for more than six generations, along the Colorado River. Today, Fiesta Winery continues to expand its production of superior, handcrafted wine within the Texas Hill Country region, rooted in family values and passion for the art of winemaking.

Winning biscotti recipe will be offered as a signature amenity in participating hotels and conference centers around the world
London, UK, May 28, 2019 – Dolce Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham – an upper-upscale hotel brand redefining modern meetings and events, and part of the Wyndham Hotels & Resorts portfolio – today announced the launch of Due by Dolce, a signature biscotti hand-crafted by Dolce’s expert chefs from a recipe chosen following a star-studded global bake-off competition.
Due by Dolce brings the brand’s artistic and culinary essence to life through creativity and craftsmanship. Aptly named as a nod to both the confection’s Italian roots (“dolce” means “sweet” in Italian) and the twice-baked process (“due” is the word for “two” in Italian), the biscotti will always be served as a pair, because just one of the delicious confections is never enough. Guests can enjoy them at Dolce locations around the world – including in such awe-inspiring destinations as the Greek seaside, the mountains of Colorado, or the hills of Provence – as they savor the little moments on their trip, from the minute they check-in, to their afternoon espresso or evening glass of Vin Santo.
The winning recipe was selected following a brand-wide culinary competition which culminated in a final bake-off on May 23rd at the Waitrose Cookery School in historic King’s Cross, London. Former contestants of The Great British Bake Off, Benjamina Ebuehi and Selasi Gbormittah, were on hand to coach, mentor and support two teams throughout the baking process as two finalist chefs, Chef Aleece Alexander of Dolce Aspen Meadows Resort and Chef Adrien Clauwaert of Dolce by Wyndham La Hulpe Brussels, went head-to-head to determine the ultimate winning recipe.
Chef Aleece Alexander of Dolce Aspen Meadows Resort was selected as the winner, for her innovative recipe of pistachio, apricot and cranberry biscotti.
The bake-off was judged by a panel of industry experts who evaluated taste, texture, presentation and creativity to crown the winning recipe. The judging panel included: Jessica Gunn, editor of Waitrose Magazine; Meike Back, Cookery Director of Good Housekeeping; and Giovanni Belli, President of Assocantuccini, the Association of Producers of Cantuccini Toscani (the traditional Italian biscuit which has become internationally known as biscotti) from Italy.
The winning chef, Chef Alexander of Dolce Aspen Meadows Resort, commented, “I am immensely proud and excited by this fantastic achievement. Just like Dolce by Wyndham’s culinary identity, biscotti are products of excellence and craftsmanship and we created a recipe with passion and dedication to ensure it would really give a taste of the artistry, craft and inspiration that you experience at our hotels. We are thrilled our recipe was crowned as the winner of this exhilarating bake-off and we are looking forward to bringing our signature biscotti to our guests all around the world.”
Mark Kukulski, President, Wyndham Hotel Management said: “Dolce Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham is designed to inspire creativity, and what better to inspire our guests around the globe than a tasty treat such as biscotti? This bake-off truly showcased the talent and artistry across our Dolce by Wyndham culinary teams. We are thrilled to introduce Chef Alexander’s recipe to our guests around the world as a signature amenity they can only find at Dolce hotels, reminding them that wherever their destination, they should stop and savour every moment.”

Classic New Jersey landmark to renovate 296 guestrooms, event spaces and dining outlets;
$17 Million transformation to be completed for summer 2019

GALLOWAY, NJ (October 16, 2018): Seaview, a Dolce Hotel – part of the renowned meetings and events brand Dolce Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham – today announced plans for a transformational renovation updating its 296 guest rooms, event spaces and dining outlets with modern design inspired by the hotel’s celebrated Jersey Shore history.
The renovation comes on the heels of new ownership for the hotel, which was sold in August 2018 to Dr. Kiran Patel, Florida philanthropist and Wyndham partner on landmark hotels including the striking Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach in Florida and prominent Dolce Cheyenne Mountain Resort in Colorado.
The $17 million renovation will include updates to all 296 guestrooms and suites; refreshed meeting spaces, lobby and public areas; renovations to the outdoor pool; and new dining options including a new original restaurant concept within the hotel’s famed Oval Room. To sustain the massive renovation, guest rooms and meeting spaces will be closed to visitors for the winter months, reopening starting in March 2019. The hotel’s golf course remains open.
“Seaview is a beloved icon of the Jersey Shore community with a rich local history shared by many guests who have spent generations vacationing here – and even team members who spend their entire careers, some of them across several generations of families, working with us at the resort,” said General Manager Bob Nelson. “This transformation is the dawn of a new era for Seaview and will provide our guests a modern east coast destination resort and, true to the Dolce brand, a harbor for inspired meetings and events – all while still embracing the past that shaped our celebrated story.”
Founded in 1914, the historic Seaview Hotel has hosted famed names such as Presidents Warren G. Harding and Dwight D. Eisenhower, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and Grace Kelly – who in 1946, celebrated her sweet 16 party in the resort’s legendary Oval Room. This history inspires the hotel’s redesign, which includes a hint of art deco nostalgia – a playful nod to Atlantic City’s heyday – paired with cool, coastal blues and modern, comfortable furnishings.
The coastal motif carries into the hotel’s 27,000 sq. ft. of event space, which caters to a variety of social events with customizable menus and packages for weddings with both indoor and outdoor ceremony venues, bar and bat mitzvahs, family reunions and fundraisers.
As part of the Dolce brand, Seaview will also offer state-of-the-art meeting facilities across 21 meeting rooms designed specifically to stimulate productivity and creative thinking. The hotel offers Dolce’s signature Nourishment Hubs, rethinking the cliché afternoon coffee break with fresh, energizing refreshments throughout the day as well as its “Thoughtful Foods for Thoughtful Minds” program offering menus with wholesome ingredients and convenient, flexible options.
Meeting planners at Seaview, a Dolce Hotel, benefit from Wyndham’s go meet, a formal rewards program catering to both professional and casual meeting/event planners. Planners who are members of the Wyndham Rewards loyalty program can earn one point for every dollar spent on qualifying revenue, regardless of billing method, with no minimum spend requirement and no maximum point limit. On average, meeting planners earn 45,000 points per meeting—enough for three free nights at any of Wyndham’s hotels around the world.
Mere minutes from the excitement of Atlantic City yet quietly tucked away on 670 scenic acres along Reed’s Bay, Seaview, a Dolce Hotel, offers 296 well-appointed guest rooms and 27,000 square feet of meeting space in a pristine, retreat-like setting for both business and leisure travelers. And, with 36 holes of golf, indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts, and a world-class spa, guests will discover inspiration beyond the boardroom. Convenient to the casinos and entertainment of Atlantic City while being only 45 minutes from Philadelphia, historic charm abounds at Seaview across a century of history and tradition merged with contemporary conveniences.
