As in any European country, Spain has a wide variety of hotels. But for the full splendor of Spanish hotels, they lacked one that could rightfully be called the "pearl" of the Spanish hotel industry. Recently in the Spanish print media there was news about the upcoming opening of a new hotel, which will become a kind of "diamond" among the hotels and hotels of this young country. According to press reports, the new hotel is scheduled to open in 2013 and will be awarded the highest class level - 7 stars! In Europe, there is only one hotel with this level of "star" - it is Milan's Town House Galleria. The Spanish gem of the hotel industry is located in the resort of Almuñécar. This resort is located on the beautiful Costa Tropical in Granada, which is close to the other San Lorenzo hotel complex.
Such a grandiose project is simultaneously the brainchild of two developed and successful chains Resorts and Banyan Tree Hotels. And the total cost of this hotel complex is 230 million euros. It is planned to attract more than 600 people for its construction and decoration. The name of the future hotel is also quite ambitious - the Phoenician Gulf.
The construction site of this complex covers 13,000 square meters. The well-known beach of Almunecar Marina del Este is located nearby the hotel. The hotel is planned to have 200 rooms, and their total area is measured at 32,000 square meters. The creators are going to build such a grandiose hotel in a very short time, construction is planned to begin in the first weeks of 2011 after all the necessary issues and formalities have been settled.
The World Tourism Organization has developed a special hotel classification. Today, according to this classification, the largest number of stars that can be assigned to a hotel or hotel is equal to 5 stars, for example, Melia Galgos. True, despite this, there are already several hotels in the world, the level of star rating which exceeds the maximum of the official classification. The very first hotel, which was awarded 7 stars, is the world famous Burj Al Arab, located in Dubai.
Banyan Tree Hotels is a hotel chain founded in 1994 with 91 hotels and plans to increase the number of hotels to 157 by 2013. This chain is perhaps the most famous chain with the most luxurious hotels. The first Banyan Tree Hotels opened in Thailand.
