Mövenpick
Hotels & Resorts is stepping up its ambitious global expansion with a
continued focus on Asia and the announcement that it is to manage two new
hotels in Vietnam and the Philippines .
The
new properties are the strikingly contemporary new Mövenpick Resort & Spa,
Quy Nhon, in Vietnam and the
soaring tower of Mövenpick
Hotel Makati , Makati City , part of Metro Manila in the Philippines .
“We
already operate seven hotels in Asia including two in Thailand, two in Vietnam
and one each in the Philippines, India and Singapore, but the new properties
will bring the number of hotels we have under development in Asia up to 18,”
said Andreas Mattmüller, chief operating officer for Mövenpick Hotels &
Resorts Middle East and Asia. “Our vision is to operate 25 hotels in the region
by 2015.”
The
move is in line with the upscale Swiss hospitality company’s strategy to create
a balanced portfolio of approximately 25 hotels in each of the regions where it
operates – Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia .
The
new properties are impressive additions to the worldwide portfolio of Mövenpick
Hotels & Resorts which currently operates 72 hotels and has a further 30
projects under development – from Paris to Palawan.
Mövenpick Resort &
Spa, Quy Nhon
The
Mövenpick Resort & Spa, Quy Nhon is the company’s third hotel in Vietnam following openings in Saigon and Hanoi . The new resort
will be built to the highest environmentally sustainable standards on an
isolated cliff overlooking the beach and pristine corals of the South China Sea . It is scheduled to open at the end of
2015.
In
addition to the innovative contemporary design of the nine-storey central
building, the 180-room resort will feature 52 individual cliff and hill villas,
a spa, a 600 sqm ballroom, boardrooms, a large variety of restaurants, cafés
and bars, extensive pools and tropical gardens, boat jetty, gym and even a
wedding studio and wind power station.
