On July 20, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts released a statement announcing that from the beginning of August 10, guests and staff members will be required to have face coverings in indoor public spaces at its properties across the United States and Canada.
“We all must play a role in slowing the spread of COVID-19,” said Geoff Ballotti, president and CEO, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. “This is a simple step we can take to help protect guests, team members, franchisees, and the countless communities we serve.”
The new requirement comes on the heels of updated guidelines from the American Hotel and Lodging Association (AHLA) and builds on Wyndham’s previously announced Count on Us initiative, elevated health and safety protocols grounded in CDC guidance.
Last week, Hyatt and Marriott each announced policies around face coverings that went into effect July 27. Also, MGM Resorts International has a nationwide mask policy that went into effect on June 26.
