Banyan Tree Group announces 2024 rebrand and pipeline

The hotel group will mark its 30th anniversary with 19 new openings

Banyan Tree Group is evolving its corporate identity, cutting the 'Tree' to rename the company Banyan Group, ahead of growing its global portfolio of hotels and resorts.

Since 2019, the group has doubled its brand portfolio, adding Banyan Tree AlUla in Saudi Arabia; Garrya in Kyoto and Folio in Osaka, Japan; Dhawa in Ho Tram, Vietnam; Homm in Huzhou, China, and Banyan Tree Dubai in the UAE.  

Banyan Group president and CEO Eddy See said: “This brand evolution reflects our portfolio transformation from a single luxury brand to the diverse offering we have today. 

"Almost half of all countries we operate in carry a multi-branded presence, most of them high-growth travel destinations. With a keen eye on expansion, we are seizing new opportunities with our distinct brands, designed to meet evolving traveller preferences and needs in these dynamic markets.”

Further enhancing Banyan Group’s multi-brand presence, additional brands are also set to debut in Vietnam, Angsana Quan Lan in Halong Bay and Garrya Mu Chang Chai, as well as in South Korea with Cassia and Homm Sokcho.

The group will also launch Laguna Lakelands in Phuket, its most ambitious nature-integrated development.
