Rezidor announces the Park Inn Sochi Riviera in Russia
The Rezidor Hotel Group, one of the fastest growing hotel groups worldwide,
announces the Park Inn Sochi Riviera in Russia. The mid market property
featuring 198 rooms will welcome the first guests in 2013 - just in time for the
2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.
"Rezidor has now five hotels in operation and under development in and around
Sochi, and is very well positioned for the big games and the further development
of this emerging tourist destination", commented Kurt Ritter, President & CEO of
Rezidor.
The Park Inn Sochi Riviera will be located within Rivera Park, which is Sochi's
most popular park and features a lovely beach along the Black Sea. While known
internationally for winter sports like skiing, Sochi is also Russia's most
popular summer vacation spot, thanks to its miles of Black Sea beaches, warm
climate (summer temperatures averaging 25 degrees Celsius), excellent shopping
and vibrant nightlife. In addition to the Olympics, Sochi will also host matches
during the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Besides 198 comfortable and colourful guest rooms, the new Park Inn Sochi
Riviera will comprise a restaurant, a bar and extensive meeting facilities. For
the leisure traveller, a wellness centre with indoor swimming pool, sauna,
hammam and fitness room will be available.
Rezidor is one of the leading international hotel operators in Russia and has
defined this emerging region as a key growth market, offering almost unlimited
development opportunities for entrepreneurial companies. Rezidor has opened a
fully fledged branch office in Moscow and currently has 36 hotels with nearly
10,000 rooms in operation and under development in Russia. The group's portfolio
ranges from landmark properties like the Radisson hotels in Moscow and St.
Petersburg to Park Inn hotels in a variety of secondary cities which previously
had lacked internationally-branded hotels.
