This partnership with Marc Anthony will not only strengthen but also solidify sbe’s position as the leading luxury and lifestyle hospitality platform in the world, amplifying its well-established restaurant and entertainment portfolio, Disruptive Restaurant Group, and the largest premium QSR brand and digital food company, C3.

HQ joined Wyndham’s Registry Collection Hotels brand, tapping into the scale, resources and reach of the world’s largest hotel franchisor.
