Two more for Accor in NZ
Accor will take over Hyatt Auckland from January 20 with the hotel re-branded as a 5-star Pullman hotel.
Accor has also taken over the hotel formerly known as Hotel So in Christchurch. It is being re-branded to its global All Seasons economy hotel brand.
Accor’s vice president New Zealand, Paul Richardson, said,
“The new branding (of Hotel So) will help contribute to Christchurch’s tourism recovery since the earthquake disrupted the city in September and give impetus for 2011.
“With new airline services, the Rugby World Cup and a still-attractive exchange rate we are very optimistic about future prospects for the Canterbury region.â€
The two hotels will take Accor’s New Zealand network to 29 hotels. With the addition of Novotel and Formule 1 hotels at Auckland next year, Accor will become New Zealand’s largest hotel group.
