“Eastern Europe offers new, exciting destinations for both – corporate and leisure travelers from around the globe. On top of it, economies of countries in this part of the world are on the rise along with the domestic purchasing power. Definitely, we see the potential and that is why we are dynamically expanding our network of hotels in this region under AccorHotels’ brands. We offer currently 129 hotels in 12 countries and have more than 40 projects secured,” said Gilles Clavie, president of the management board & CEO of Orbis.

The newly-built ibis Styles Bucharest City Center, due for opening in the first quarter of 2020, is developed in partnership with Romanian owner and investor Dentotal Hospitality and will be managed by Orbis.

““With 11 hotels today and another 10 in the pipeline, Romania is a key market for us and we’re proud that in partnership with Dentotal Hospitality, we are further strengthening our leading position by opening ibis Styles City Center that will be one of the most upbeat and stylish hotels in Bucharest. We actively continue to look for further developing opportunities on the market, having a strong potential for hotels under AccorHotels’ world leading brands,” said Frank Reul, head of Development of Orbis & AccorHotels Eastern Europe.
