Rezidor announces the Radisson Blu Resort & Spa Porticcio, Corsica
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
The Rezidor Hotel Group, one of the fastest growing hotel companies worldwide,
adds a further property to its young and successful resort portfolio in Europe,
Middle East and Africa: The group announces the Radisson Blu Resort & Spa
Porticcio on the French island Corsica - famous home to Napoleon Bonaparte. The
170 rooms-hotel is scheduled to open its doors in spring 2012. "With this
signing we are not only able to further strengthen our stylish and contemporary
Radisson resorts but also increase our portfolio in France to 25 hotels with
almost 4,200 rooms in operation and under development", says Kurt Ritter,
President & CEO of Rezidor. "This project is the most important hotel investment
in Corsica since 20 years. As a true resort development it is a perfect
complementation of our activities as a tour operator, transport and incoming
company", adds Jean-Marc Ollandini, President of the group Ollandini, owner of
the new hotel and a leader within Corsica's tourism industry.
Situated on a beautiful sandy beach along the Mediterranean Sea and 6 kilometres
from the chic seaside town of Porticcio, the new Radisson Blu Resort & Spa
Porticcio, Corsica will feature 170 guest rooms all featuring private balconies.
Perfect for families and couples, extensive leisure areas are also planned,
including a spa, fitness centre, tennis courts, indoor and outdoor pools and a
kids club. For those mixing business with pleasure, 370 square meters of meeting
rooms will be available.
The Radisson Blu Resort & Spa Porticcio is easily accessible from mainland
Europe: The Napoleon Bonaparte Airport is 15 kilometres north of the hotel.
Corsica's largest city, Ajaccio, is 30 kilometres northwest. An extensive road
network circles Corsica giving visitors great access to all corners of the
island.
Corsica, commonly known as "Island of Beauty", is renowned for its beaches,
intriguing landscape and year-round beautiful weather. Visitors can chose from
over 200 beaches on the island (including one adjacent to the hotel) and 1,000
kilometres of coastline. Snorkelling, scuba diving, wind surfing and swimming
are all popular activities, although many travellers invariable chose just to
relax and enjoy the sun on the island's idyllic beaches. For the more
adventurous travellers, the Corsica's exhilarating mountains beckon, many of
which are protected through an extensive network of parks.
