2028 hotel openings

Which hotels are already in the works for a 2028 opening? Four projects from our database show what's coming next.

We previously wrote about a few hotels scheduled to open in 2027, and we said that a lot can happen before then. That’s even more true for 2028. Projects that are scheduled to open that year (and keep in mind that timelines are always changing, so these dates may be updated as well) are in various phases, from pre-planning to planning to already under construction.

From a five-star refurbishment in Vietnam to a new-build, planning-stage property in Canada, the openings planned for 2028 span very different corners of the industry. One is a ground-up build, one a refurbishment, and two are extension projects.

These four projects come from the THP database, which tracks far more than just this small sample. Users can filter by opening date, star rating, brand or chain, region, construction phase, hotel type, and whether a project is new-build or renovation—making it easy to zero in on the pipeline activity most relevant to suppliers, whether that means following one brand’s expansion worldwide or keeping tabs on a single market. Below is a closer look at what’s on the way for 2028.
