WORLDHOTELS Signs Five Othon Hotels in Brazil

WORLDHOTELS has signed an agreement with Othon Hotels of Brazil for five new affiliate hotels in Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and Belo Horizonte.

These new additions complement the growing global portfolio of the group which encompasses 450 affiliate properties in 250 destinations and 65 countries worldwide. In South America, WORLDHOTELS now boasts seven affiliate properties, five in Brazil and two Argentina, and is looking to double the number of hotels in that region by the end of this year.

Othon Hotels has a diverse, five-brand portfolio of 26 properties with 2,000 guestrooms located in Brazil, Portugal and the United States.

“The five Othon Hotels we are welcoming today are spectacular properties,” said Roland Jegge, Vice President for WORLDHOTELS Asia Pacific. “We believe these high-visibility hotels will generate regional interest and growth opportunities for our group and provide unique accommodation for guests from around the world.”
