CORINTHIA
HOTELS INTRODUCES A DEDICATED TRAVELING EVENT
ASSISTANT TO ITS UNIQUE EVENTS@CORINTHIA PROGRAMME
FOR MEETING, CONFERENCE AND INCENTIVE
ORGANIZERS Personal
Service from One Event to Another (New
York, New York, Sept 25, 2006) Shawn Pisani,
Director of Sales and Events@Corinthia, Corinthia
Hotels, announced the addition of a dedicated
Traveling Events Assistant as the newest feature of
Events@Coirnthia, a unique program dedicated to the
Meeting, Incentive, Conference and Events (MICE)
market. Corinthia
Hotels is a Malta-based hospitality brand, with
luxury city centre and resort properties in Europe,
Africa and the Mediterranean. A selection of these
hotels feature in the Events@corinthia program,
namely, the Corinthia Bab Africa Hotel in Tripoli,
Libya, the Corinthia San Gorg and Corinthia Palace
hotels in Malta, the Corinthia Towers Hotel in
Prague, Czech Republic, the Corinthia Nevskij
Palace Hotel in St Petersburg, Russia, the
Corinthia Lisboa Hotel in Lisbon, Portugal, and the
Corinthia Grand Hotel Royal in Budapest, Hungary.
Indeed, the hotels in Budapest, Lisbon and Tripoli
can individually handle bigger meetings than any
other hotels in their respective cities, and when
the expansion at the Corinthia Nevskij Palace Hotel
is completed in 2007, it will be the largest
conference hotel in St. Petersburg, Russia. This
affirms Corinthia as the undisputed market leader
in these increasingly popular conference
destinations. Pisani
then elaborated on the details of the Traveling
Events Assistant: "One of the Events@Corinthia
promises is that every organizer of groups with 300
or more Room nights, will have a dedicated
Events@Corinthia assistant that will be at the
organizers side and on call 24/7 to ensure that the
event runs smoothly and is a success for the
company organizing the event. Responding to
feedback from organizers, we have now taken this
concept one step further. When an event organizer
decides to use another Corinthia Hotel in one of
our other destinations for their next event, we
will send this same Event Assistant to the next
Corinthia Hotel to assist the organizer. This
Traveling Event Assistant, who would be very
familiar with all the details and special
requirements of that particular organizer, will
arrive two days prior to the organizer's arrival,
brief his or her counterpart, welcome the organizer
upon arrival, and work with the onsite
Events@Corinthia team for two days to make sure
that the organizer is comfortable with all the
arrangements for the event." The
Events@Corinthia program, with its professional
dedicated MICE team and personal service, is what
distinguishes Corinthia Hotels from the
competition. The guarantee of having a Traveling
Event Assistant, someone the organizer feels
comfortable with, work with the organizer on the
next event in yet another overseas destination, is
an excellent example of how the concept of
Events@Corinthia is really attuned to the special
demands of the MICE Market. The
guaranteed 24-hour response to RFP (Request for
Proposal) by Events@Corinthia is also ahead of the
competition. According to Mr Pisani, "The feedback
from many clients is that we have provided the
quickest response to every request, in detail, with
all quotes guaranteed." Corinthia
Event Promise Events@Corinthia,
a clear indication of Corinthia's commitment to the
MICE market, was conceived four years ago following
18 months of intensive research into the needs and
requirements of the MICE market. The elements of
Corinthia's Event Promise, based on personal
service and attention to detail, are a direct
result of this research. The core of the program is
the Corintha Event Assistant dedicated to each of
the events, a personal contact 24 hours a day, and
a free mobile phone that provides the event
organizer with free local calls and pre-programmed
numbers of all the necessary event contacts. This
is the same Event Assistant that would become the
personal "Traveling Event
Assistant." Other
elements of the Corinthia Event Promise offer each
event organizer the following
services: ·
Enquiry Feedback &endash; Corinthia's initial
response is guaranteed within 24
hours ·
Ready when you are - Automatic access to fully
prepared event rooms one hour
before ·
Techno sure &endash; A wide variety of the latest
audiovisual equipment plus technical assistance

ideas for banquets and receptions, innovative
cultural tours and entertainment
