Hospitality Associates owns, operates and provides exceptional hotel management services throughout the western U.S.

About us

Hospitality Associates is a third-generation, family-owned hotel management and development company. The Wynia family entered the industry in 1959 when Jess Wynia acquired their first hotel. What began as a single hotel has now become a company with a successful track record through the years of over 75 hotels in ten western states, Alaska and Hawaii. Our focus is on all-suites, extended stay, and upper-midscale inn & suites hotels. Stability in personnel with excellent service to our guests, as well as to our partners, are hallmarks of the Hospitality Associates leadership team. Our corporate executives average over 25 years with the company and many of our hotel managers have been a part of our success for a decade or more. The combined expertise of the staff has produced award-winning and profitable hotels recognized by hotel franchisers as some of the finest hotels in their franchise systems. We take great pride in building long-standing partnerships that are fair to both sides with a high return on investment. Our business model emphasizes this by eliminating unnecessary and costly fees used by other development and management companies to inflate their profits at the expense of the partnership. We drive revenue to the bottom line for the benefit of all partners. This approach creates an environment of trust and equality among partners that is further emphasized by our commitment to communication, accountability and performance.

  • It was a beautiful day to come together in Coeur d'Alene, ID and to walk for a cause close to our hearts. Team members were inspired to participate in Walk to End Alzheimers, the world's largest fundraiser benefiting the Alzheimer's Association. Funds that were raised will be directed towards the care, support and treatment of patients as well as for research which hopefully someday soon will lead to a cure.
