HotelREZ has signed the Le Méridien Hotel Phoenicia, Malta to its exclusive hotel membership – the Elegant Hotel Collection – and will be renamed Hotel Phoenicia Malta.

The property, which is now managed by Heuston Hospitality, has switched to the Elegant Hotel Collection brand by HotelREZ. www.eleganthotelcollection.com.

The Hotel Phoenicia had no difficult meeting the criteria for quality and standards the Elegant brand requires. With 136 rooms, conference facilities for 300 people and seven-and-a-half acres of mature gardens to offer, HotelREZ believes that this property will exceed previous revenue targets especially once the multi-million euro refurbishment nears completion.

Executive Director Brenda Collin commented: “This is a stunning property we are proud to represent worldwide under the Elegant Hotel Collection. It fits in perfectly with our strategy to represent luxury properties and in addition, we will work with agents and the MICE market to promote the destination of Malta.”

General Manager Jean Pierre Auriol commented, “As a new standalone hotel, we needed a strong representation company and we have selected HotelREZ’s Elegant Hotel Collection brand, as the ideal partner to provide the marketing services we require and help build our online reservations.”
