Upmarket Eastern Mediterranean hotel group, Aquis Hotels and Resorts, is set to officially launch and open its doors in Corfu and is offering 100 free rooms for UK travel agents specializing in Mediterranean holidays to mark the occasion.

The 100 rooms are available for arrivals between 21 and 25 April for a maximum of seven nights at either the Aquis Agios Gordios Beach Hotel or Aquis Pelekas Beach Hotel for double or single occupancy. Rooms are subject to availability on a first come first serve basis, allocation of hotel will be confirmed 10 days prior to arrival.

Marketing Manager Rania Deimezi said: “We’re very excited about the opening of the first Aquis properties and want to showcase them to our travel trade partners. To take advantage of this offer of free accommodation all agents need to do is book their flights and send us the confirmation.”

Backed by international funds and capital investments, the company was created last summer with the objective to develop a chain of upmarket hotels within Greece, Cyprus, Turkey and Egypt. Deimezi  said: “In comparison with the western Mediterranean – especially Spain - which already has developed hotel chains, hotel groups and franchise brands opportunities in the last decade, the eastern Mediterranean has been left behind in comparison, this is why we’ve launched Aquis Hotels and Resorts.”
