Accor, the largest hotel operator in Australia and New Zealand, has been saying ‘ALL Thanks To You’ over the past week, at a series of appreciation events hosted by the formidable Accor Pacific sales teams.
Designed to acknowledge and recognise the value its partners, clients and corporate advisors bring to Accor, the events, hosted in Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch, proved to be a momentous success with over 550 people across a wide range of industries coming together to enjoy the Accor hospitality.
The coordinated events were also an opportunity for Accor to showcase its brands, new hotels, and introduce new key executives across the sales and business events teams.
The Group’s ALL Meeting Planner programme, where year-round, event organisers can earn points and use these to cover up to 15% off their event bill and access redemption rewards, including world-class experiences, was also highlighted.
During the Sydney and Melbourne events, attendees were invited to enjoy traditional Swiss cheeses and pancakes with Swissôtel, participate and sample live dessert art with Pullman, take a moment of calm with Novotel, enjoy the chocolate fountain by Mövenpick, sample local ice creams with Mantra. The drinks were flowing, thanks to the generous support from Moet Hennessy, Joval Wines and Lions.
Continuing the theme of thanks and appreciation, the Pacific sales teams, along with representatives from over 100 hotels across Australia and New Zealand, visited with key clients in each destination to update on the Group’s commitment to sustainability, which includes removing all single-use plastic items from the guest experience and reaching net zero carbon emissions by 2050, Hotel refurbishments and new developments.
Accor Pacific Chief Operating Officer PM&E, Adrian Williams, said: “Our ALL Thanks to You appreciation events across seven capital cities in Australia and New Zealand were a great success.
“It was a pleasure to gather so many of our valued travel trade partners and clients, as it provided us a lovely opportunity to give our heartfelt thanks for the contribution they make to our Group.
“We’re excited for what the rest of 2024 and beyond brings, and we look forward to continuing to work hand-in-hand with our esteemed industry partners across the region – delivering exceptional events alongside world-class hospitality.”
