Events will play a major role
The GH Gallipoli Resort also has a large events area. “We plan to open as early as April, focusing on MICE and banqueting which already have a solid base in the property but that we want to further expand,- explains Garibaldi Hotels’ CEO Fabrizio Prete. “The aim is to tend towards a prolonged opening going beyond the classic summer months, in line with our strategy that focuses on stretching the season. For this it is essential we work with foreign markets, on which we are already moving to sign deals.
“Quality catering will be a plus”
The Apulian hotel chain now has 14 properties, including resorts, clubs, hotels and historic residences. “The new property boosts our resort offer which is fundamental for conquering the medium-high market segment, the target we are aiming at ,- adds the company's president, Egidio Ventimiglia. -We are looking at possible investments in this area and the customization of details that can make a difference on the market. We will also assess integrating further services for increasingly demanding Italian and international clients. One of the pluses of the Gallipoli Resort will certainly be quality catering.”
