NH Hotel Group outlines re-opening plans
NH Hotel Group has outlined its plan for a gradual re-opening of hotels in line with the easing of restrictions in most countries.
It plans to have 55% of its portfolio open during the month of June, around 200 hotels out of the 361 it operates worldwide.
Up until now, only 12 properties have remained in operation in southern Europe, most of which were reserved for essential groups during the lockdown period.
In northern Europe, the company has just over 40 properties open to date as a result of the faster easing of restrictions in these countries.
In Latin America, the last region to be affected by the Covid-19 effect, the operations of most of the hotels continue to be suspended. It is expected that this continent will be the last one to recover its activity.~
Under its Feel Safe at NH concept, the group has completely redesigned the customer experience to ensure safety and social distancing requirements are met.
Developed with SGS, a world leader in inspection, analysis and certification, NH Hotel Group has developed a set of measures including the digitalisation of hotel services, the adaptation of sanitation processes, the incorporation of social distancing standards, the use of personal protection elements and the control of air and water purification, among others.
