Novotel is a hotel brand within the AccorHotels group which opened its first hotel in France in 1967.
The Rox company from Zagreb has signed a contract with the Orbis SA hotel group, the exclusive licensee of the Novotel hotel brand for Eastern Europe, to build their first hotel in Croatia, reports HRTurizam on October 11, 2018.
Orbis SA is a strategic partner of AccorHotels which connects more than 4,500 hotels, complexes and residences worldwide.
“Novotel is the world’s leading brand of modern hotels and tourist complexes in 59 countries, ideally located in the heart of major international cities, business zones and desirable tourist destinations. The passion that this brand has for work perfectly corresponds to our location in Zagreb. I believe this hotel will be recognized as a central place for organizing business events, but also as an oasis of peace for rest and relaxation,” said Ivo Krištić of Rox d.o.o.
The hotel will offer 170 rooms, a bar, a restaurant, a wellness center, and business premises. The Zagreb Novotel location plans to open its doors by the end of 2020.
“Croatia has become one of the most attractive countries for investors in the hotel sector. We are very proud that the local partner has decided to cooperate with the Novotel brand and has chosen Orbis as the manager of this top project. Zagreb is one of the most important business centers in Southeast Europe – a very dynamic and creative city. Guests seeking rest and relaxation, as well as businesspeople, will truly enjoy Novotel,” added Gilles Clavie, CEO and Chief Executive Officer of the Orbis Group.
Located in a prime location, just 20 minutes from the city center and 15 minutes from the international airport, the Novotel Zagreb hotel will provide quality accommodation and a unique experience for both business and leisure guests.
