Accor to Open 3 Hotels in Uzbekistan

Accor, a world leading hospitality group, will open three new hotels under premium brands in Uzbekistan thanks to the signing of a cooperation agreement with Hyper Group of Companies.

The signed memorandums provide for the opening of Mövenpick Samarkand and Swissôtel Tashkent following the rebranding and renovation of the existing hotels, as well as the construction of the new Swissôtel Charvak hotel in Navobod village, Tashkent region. The total room capacity of three hotels will amount to more than 500 rooms, scheduled to open in the coming years.

“Today is a remarkable day for us. With the signing of these three new projects we significantly strengthen our positioning in the hotel market of Uzbekistan and introduce two new brands in this country – Swissôtel and Mövenpick, embodying elegant Swiss luxury and hospitality traditions. Guests of Tashkent and Samarkand will be able to enjoy visiting them in the near future. These ancient cities are the pearls of the Great Silk Road, with beautiful architecture and traditions that cherish the memory of many centuries. Thousands of tourists come here every year, as well as business travellers due to the considerable growth of business activity. We are confident that the opening of new hotels under well-known international brands will be an additional factor in choosing Uzbekistan as the next travel destination. I am grateful to our partners for their trust and I hope that together we will be able to implement many more exciting projects in the future,” – notes Alexis Delaroff, COO of Accor New East Europe.

Mövenpick Samarkand

Mövenpick Samarkand will open following the renovation and rebranding of the popular four-star Registan Plaza Hotel, located at 53 Shohrukh Street in Samarkand, close to the business districts and historical sites of the Old City.
