Anantara will soon be represented with other top hotels in Europe: The NH Hotel Group, acquired by Minor Hotels, will take over the operation of eight former Boscolo hotels with a total of 1,115 rooms. Among the new additions that were recently marketed as “The Dedica Anthology” are major names in European luxury hotel industry, such as the “Palazzo Naiadi” in Rome, the “Grand Hotel Dei Dogi” in Venice and the “New York Palace” in Budapest.
These are the new hotels:
- 5 * Hotel Palazzo Naiadi / Rome (238 rooms)
- 5 * Grand Hotel Dei Dogi / Venice (64)
- 4 * Bellini Hotel / Venice (100)
- 4 * Hotel Palazzo Gaddi / Florence (86)
- 5 * New York Palace Hotel / Budapest (185)
- 5 * New York Residence / Budapest (138)
- 5 * Carlo IV Hotel / Prague (152)
- 5 * Hotel Plaza Nice (152)
The eight hotels, some of which also belong to the “Autograph Collection” from Marriott, are now to be repositioned under the luxury brands “Anantara” (Minor Hotels) or “NH Collection” in the coming months. It is not yet known which hotels come under which brand – but it is quite possible that Anantara in Europe will soon come up with top hotels in Rome, Venice, Budapest or Prague.
The basis of the deal is a strategic partnership with the real estate company Covivio, which has taken over the houses from the Boscolo portfolio and has agreed a 15-year lease with the NH Hotel Group. The transaction is expected to close in late June 2020. Then the hotels will also be handed over – only the houses in Florence and Nice, which are currently being renovated, will not follow until June 2020 and January 2021, respectively.
