Accor reinforces its presence in Cuba with the contract for the Pullman Cayo Coco. Jean Philippe Claret, SVP Operations Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, declared: “Accor has been present in Cuba for nearly twenty years and we have been effective in forging trusting and lasting relations with our local partner Gran Caribe. The Pullman Cayo Coco will enrich Cuba’s offer of hotels in the upscale segment which has real development potential.”
Accor also has another construction project in Cuba with Gaviota in the luxury and upscale segment: the 218-room Sofitel So La Habana, ideally located on the corner of the Malecón and Paseo del Prado. Accor currently manages two midscale establishments in Cuba: the Mercure Sevilla Havane (178 rooms), located in the UNESCO world heritage site neighbourhood of La Habana Vieja, and the Mercure Playa de Oro, (385 rooms) located in the seaside resort of Varadero.
