Shares of Wyndham Hotels & Resorts have had a difficult year or so, declining by double-digits in a strong market. Previously weak, WH's U.S. RevPAR has rebounded back into positive territory this year, and management is guiding for more growth in H2. While international setbacks have temporarily weighed on WH's global metrics, structural growth drivers and the upturn in U.S. RevPAR should drive solid growth in 2027 and 2028.

Investors interested in Hotels and Motels stocks are likely familiar with H World Group (HTHT) and Wyndham Hotels (WH). But which of these two companies is the best option for those looking for undervalued stocks?

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Aug. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (NYSE: WH) announced today its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.43 per share on its common stock, payable September 30, 2026 to shareholders of record as of September 15, 2026.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is attractively valued, with shares trading cheaper than peers despite steady room growth and manageable leverage. WH expects 2026 revenue of $1.475–$1.495 billion and EBITDA of $735–$745 million, signaling continued operational improvement. RevPAR trends diverge: domestic markets show resilience, while international RevPAR faces headwinds from geopolitical and economic pressures.

Loews Corp (NYSE:L), the New York-listed conglomerate with interests in insurance, pipelines, hotels and packaging, reported second-quarter net income of $444 million as its smaller businesses picked up the slack from a weakening insurance market. That compares with $391 million a year earlier, with earnings per share rising to $2.16 from $1.87.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is maintained as a Buy following strong Q2 results and raised FY26 guidance. WH's 2Q2026 EPS grew 11% and beat consensus by 5%, thanks to solid growth in room revenues and ancillary fees. WH's margin expansion is driven by operational efficiencies, AI adoption, and a development pipeline focused on higher-royalty mid-scale rooms.
