This investment is a commitment to upholding the highest quality standards across Accor Pacific’s hotels, apartments and resorts in the region and improving guest experiences.
Accor Pacific, the hotel operator in Australia and New Zealand, announces that its partners have invested more than $300 million in hotel renovations and refurbishments since the beginning of 2022.
This significant investment demonstrates Accor Pacific and its partner’s commitment to providing exceptional guest experiences and maintaining the highest standards of quality across its portfolio.
The extensive renovations and refurbishments have taken place in various locations throughout the Pacific region, including Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, and French Polynesia. The investment aims to enhance guest satisfaction, elevate property amenities, and ensure that Accor’s 400 hotels, apartments and resorts in the Pacific, remain at the forefront of the industry.
Accor Pacific CEO, Sarah Derry, commented, “We are proud to announce this substantial investment in hotel renovations and refurbishments. It reflects the commitment of our partners to invest in Accor’s brands, which continue to deliver outstanding guest experiences. These renovations will not only enhance the overall guest experience, but also contribute to the economic growth and development of the local communities where Accor hotels, apartments and resorts are located.”
“The renovations have received overwhelmingly positive feedback from guests, who have noted the enhanced comfort and improved facilities. Accor continues to prioritise guest satisfaction and aims to provide exceptional experiences that exceed expectations.”
The $300 million investment in renovations and refurbishments aligns with Accor’s sustainability goals. Efforts have been made to incorporate eco-friendly practices and technologies throughout the refurbishment processes, reducing the ecological footprint of the hotels and promoting responsible tourism.
