Moevenpick Hotels & Resorts, the upscale hotel company of Swiss heritage, will showcase its 10 new properties set to open within the next 12 months at the upcoming travel expo Arabian Travel Market in Dubai.

“We presently have over 30 projects under development worldwide with ten properties set to open within the next 12 months in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Morocco, Thailand, the Philippines and China,” said Andreas Mattmüller, chief operating officer Middle East and Asia for Moevenpick.

“Promoting these future and current properties remains crucially important and solidifying our association with Reed and the Arabian Travel Market gives us access to key international partners on the travel and tourism scene with who we share business interests.”

The 20th Arabian Travel Market is running from May 6 to 9 at the Dubai International Convention & Exhibition Centre.

“ATM is pleased to partner with the Moevenpick brand for our 20th anniversary for the second year, during which the hotels can showcase their facilities and service levels to an influential group of travel professionals attending the show,” said Mark Walsh, portfolio director for event organiser Reed Travel Exhibitions.

While special emphasis will be placed on the recently opened Moevenpick Hotel Apartments The Square, there will also be a press breakfast to celebrate the upcoming opening of Moevenpick Hotel Jumeirah Lakes Towers, the company’s sixth Dubai property offering 168 rooms and 307 apartments.

Moevenpick Hotel & Spa Oceana will eventually become the seventh hotel when it opens on The Palm Jumeirah.

The group will also mark a total of ten hotels in Saudi Arabia when Moevenpick Hotel Riyadh opens in Q1 2014 with 433 rooms and suites, four speciality restaurants, 14 conference rooms and a ballroom for 1,200 guests.

During the last few months the company opened its first property in Paris and extended its portfolio in Africa with properties in Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada. The hospitality company aims to operate 100 hotels by 2015, according to a statement.

A total of 30 Moevenpick Hotels & Resorts will be participating in ATM this year, making it the largest gathering of the company’s properties in any exhibition.

The company will also promote its global Summer Savings offers with discounts of up to 30 per cent in over 75 hotels across all regions. – TradeArabia News Service
