CampbellGray Hotels announce expansion
CampbellGray Hotels has announced an expansion with new hotels planned in Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
The company has entered into a business partnership with the Audeh family, sole owners and developers of the new Le Gray Amman Hotel and Residences, to develop Le Gray, The Phoenicia and The Machrie Hotel and Golf Links projects.
Gordon Campbell Gray, founder and Chairman of CampbellGray Hotels, comments: “This partnership heralds an exciting next chapter for our company. It will allow us to realise our full potential and extend our distinctive brand of hospitality to different destinations.”
Le Gray residential and the commercial office components will debut in late 2015, followed by the opening of Le Gray Amman Hotel in 2017. Interiors are by Martin Brudnizki Design Studio and facades by Architecture-Studio Paris.
The Phoenicia, Malta, 2015 will see the start of the phased re-launch of this iconic and much-loved grand hotel in the old-town heart of Malta’s capital city, Valletta. With The Phoenicia’s architectural beauty considered one of the top sights of Malta, the re-launch will be sympathetic to the hotel’s Maltese heritage and will include a complete refurbishment by Peter Young Design and Mary Fox Linton.
The re-launch of The Machrie Hotel and Golf Links, Scotland, will be in early 2017 and will include a complete redevelopment to create an international destination in the world of golf. The renovated space will act as a wonderful hotel for golfers and non-golfers alike, accessible to the residents of Islay.
Saad Audeh, of Audeh Group, comments: “I have grown tired of the corporate chains of cookie-cutter hotels, and know that many of today’s travellers, whether on business or for leisure, want a hotel that simply makes them feel great each day. We are thrilled to be working with Gordon and his super-professional team, and see this partnership as an opportunity to create many fabulous new hotels of the kind at which I have always wanted to stay.”
