Accor

March 23, 2010: 300 hotels in 16 countries throughout the Asia Pacific will be offering 50% off room rates, during a 3-Day Super Sale that will run from March 7 til March 9, 2010.

Over one million rooms will be on sale at half price for stays between April 1 and August 31, 2010 in all segments from 5 star Pullman hotels through to the more economical ibis hotels in Asia Pacific. The half price discount is calculated from the �rate of the day� with lead in prices from US$16. "We began seeing strengthening demand early in the last quarter of 2009, which has resulted in a major increase in demand for rooms in 2010 and will inevitably lead to higher hotel rates," said Graham Wilson, Accor Asia Pacific's Senior Vice President Sales and Marketing. Wilson added "With rates on the rise, this is the perfect time to take advantage of these super sale rates, because these price levels are unlikely to be seen again for a considerable time". Consumer reservations via www.accorhotels.com/supersale Accor loyalty card holders A|Club and Advantage Plus members have access to a pre sale period from March 5, 2010.
