Investment Projects
AMAKS Hotels & Resorts is a wealthy and perspective investor spending much money on the chain development. The entire investments in reconstruction and development of the chain property currently amount to already more than 20 million US dollars. The expansion of the chain positively influences the labour markets in the regions where the Company works. Throughout the years the chain has already provided job to more than 2000 people. First and foremost, the Company develops of hospitality infrastructure all over Russia as well as the formation of a regulated tourist service market in the areas where the Company operates. Tourist service demand increase is one of the main goals of the corporate promotion policy.
“AMAKS Hotels & Resorts” uses advanced hospitality technologies. Work done by the Company managing personnel results in a permanent development and expansion of the chain where each hotel is a highly profitable hospitality property. The Company operates the best local properties in the field of hospitality working in various segments of hotel industry. These properties include business hotels, traveller´s complexes, and health resorts. A distinct feature of the chain is that it operates multipurpose properties as each hotel is a modern recreation centre for the guests. Such approach is surely very promising but at the same time requires substantial investment.
The chain continues an intensive expansion.
One of the first hotels of the chain was hotel “Tourist” in the city of Perm. When it was bought the property was an unpromising enterprise with a negative financial balance. In a relatively short period of time the property was renovated and began to offer a much better service and has by now turned to one of the best regional hospitality complexes renamed as “AMAKS Premier-hotel”. At the moment the property continues to increase its room inventory capacities as well as the range of additional services offered to the guests. The hotel has increased its room inventory by 20%, launched a top class restaurant facility, modern spa and fitness centre, introduced a broad range of additional services and finished reconstructing all the contact premises according to 4**** hotel standards under international hotel classification system. In January, 2004 the hotel won “the best service” award in the regional hospitality contest. On the 27th of October, 2006 the hotel opened its entertainment centre.
One of the most promising properties in the chain is “AMAKS Golden Ring” in the city of Vladimir, a large hospitality complex on the territory of Golden Ring tourist itinerary. The chain is reconstructing the entire complex, including room inventory, contact zones, food and beverage facilities, and entertainment centre. The area of the largest four star hotel (under international hotel classification system) on the territory of the Golden Ring itinerary is more than 8000 square metres (15 floors). Apart from that, the adjacent territory hosts the largest modern entertainment and family leisure centres of the entire Vladimir region and a spa and fitness centre.
On September 25, 2006 “AMAKS Golden Ring” hospitality complex was opened. After the reconstruction the 15 floor building of the property fully corresponds to modern quality standards.
In February, 2004 the Company began to operate another large hospitality property, this time - hotel Sputnik in the city of Voronezh. Now the hotel is under step-by-step reconstruction. The territory of the largest hospitality property (premises area of more than 7000 square metres, area of the adjacent territory of more than 22500 square metres) in the entire Voronezh region is planned to host a three star hotel, the largest multipurpose entertainment centre regionwide, and a modern countryside family leisure centre. You already have an opportunity to see the interior of fully reconstructed and reequipped rooms. Contact zones, restaurant, and the conference hall are being fully reconstructed plus an internet café and a business centre are under construction and an outdoor café is also planned to be opened.
In April, 2004 the chain got another large hotel, this time – hotel “Yuzhnaya” in Belgorod. The property is planned to be operated as a three star object. Thanks to the adoption of high quality standards, training of personnel, and quality control by the managing company the hotel has already become one of the leaders in the field of hospitality in the entire Belgorod region. These achievements are confirmed by many letters of thanks and diplomas awarded to the property.
