Swiss-Belhotel International recently signed a management agreement to operate its first Bahrain hotel property. The announcement was made at the Arabian Travel Market.
Essa Bokhowa, chairman of Miami Property Co represented by Fawaz Essa Bokhowa, managing director, and owners of this new hotel development – and Swiss-Belhotel International’s chairman and president, Gavin Faull, and regional director of operations & development for the Middle East, Magdi Samman, were present at the signing ceremony.
“We are already seeing new opportunities take shape in Bahrain, buoyed by multi-billion dollar infrastructure development and a growing calendar of events, including Formula One. Our new property will set new standards in four-star accommodation and attract a new audience,” said Bokhowa.
Scheduled to open for business in the first quarter of 2014, the Swiss-Belhotel Seef is a 29-storey four-star hotel offering 149 guestrooms and suites. The hotel also boasts a 10th floor poolside terrace and speciality rooftop restaurant.
