Georgetown: The Guyana Tourism Authority, yesterday, presented Princess Hotel with its License under Tourism Accommodation Establishment; this is the second such license issued to date.
In handing over the certificate, the GTA Director, Mr. Indranauth Haralsingh posited that the certification will indeed lift the standards of the hotel, particularly as the entity will soon be rebranded.
He noted too that this is indeed an achievement for the establishment, one which should be emulated.
Meanwhile, the hotel’s General Manager, Ugur Turetgen graciously accepted the license while noting that it is a high achievement for Princess.
U.S.-based hotel group Ramada will be spending US$7 million to rebrand the Princess Hotel and Casino at Providence, East Bank Demerara to Ramada Georgetown Princess, officials announced at a news briefing on Tuesday.
The rebranding mission has already taken effect and arose following an agreement between the Providence entity and Ramada, which is a subsidiary of the Wyndham Hotel group of New Jersey in the United States.
The agreement is a work in progress in which the two have partnered on Princess’ existing hotels in Europe and the Caribbean.
The GTA has, to date, presented certificates of conformity to Wilderness Explorers, Rock View Eco Lodge and Resort , Roraima Tours and City Inn Suites.
