Rezidor signs Hotel in Wroclaw, Poland

Rezidor has signed a management contract for its second hotel in Poland.

The Park Inn Wroclaw, featuring 206 rooms, is scheduled to open its doors at the beginning of 2012; right in time for the UEFA European Football Championship when Poland and Ukraine will be the host nations of the final tournament.

“This is our second Park Inn in Poland after the Park Inn Krakow,” said Kurt Ritter, President & CEO of Rezidor. “At the same time it brings our portfolio in Eastern Europe to 75 hotels with 18,000 rooms in operation and under development – a clear sign for our commitment to this emerging region.”

The Park Inn Wroclaw will benefit from excellent visibility, located along one of the main arterial roads leading to the city centre and near to an international transit routes to Katowice, Krakow, Berlin and Czech Republic.

Besides the 206 modern and colourful rooms, the hotel will offer a restaurant and lobby bar. For business travellers, extensive conference facilities will spread over 800 m² with large parking facilities for cars and buses to accommodate larger group arrivals. 

Wrocław is a beautiful city with Bohemian, Austrian and Prussian influences – the most famous architectural and cultural masterpiece is the magnificent market square.

The city is located on the Odra River and enjoys idyllic surroundings including 12 islands, 130 bridges and several parks.

Fans of Wrocław are in good company: Pablo Picasso said he found the post war reconstruction of the city a powerful inspiration, and the British historians Norman Davies and Roger Moorhouse used Wrocław as the model for their highly readable Microcosm: A Portrait of a Central European City (2003).

But Wrocław is not just a pretty face: It is Poland’s fourth-largest city and the major industrial, commercial and educational centre for the region. At the same time it is a lively cultural centre, with several theatres, some major festivals, rampant nightlife and a large student community.
