Port Hotels and Scalapay seal a strategic alliance to enhance the online booking experience
Port Hotels, committed to innovation and the continuous improvement of guest experience, has signed a strategic agreement with Scalapay to integrate its instalment payment system into the brand’s official website. This collaboration enables users to book quickly and securely, spreading the cost over several instalments in a simple and predictable way, with no friction in the process.
This step marks a natural evolution in the hotel group’s digital strategy, at a time when travellers increasingly value solutions that simplify their purchasing decisions: speed on mobile, better control over spending, and payment options at their own pace.
“We had been considering this move for some time. Incorporating Scalapay as a payment method was a natural evolution within our digital strategy, and a way to offer customers a flexible, transparent alternative aligned with how they prefer to manage their budgets,” said Diego Fernández Pérez de Ponga, CEO of Port Hotels.
The alliance reflects a growing reality: mobile is the primary booking channel for Port Hotels’ customers, with more than 60% of transactions made via mobile. In this context, integrating a native instalment payment solution such as Scalapay helps to boost conversion and remove barriers at the final stages of the booking process, while giving users greater autonomy.
This development forms part of a broader digital roadmap, which includes initiatives such as the Velma virtual assistant and the continuous improvement of the booking engine, both of which strengthen more direct, connected and efficient customer service. In addition to Scalapay as a flexible instalment option, Port Hotels also offers Bizum for immediate payment and PayPal as a digital wallet.

Port Hotels promotes inclusive tourism with the first hotel adapted for autistic individuals in the Valencian Community
Port Hotels continues to advance in its commitment to inclusion, accessibility and social sustainability with the certification of its Hotel Port Azafata as the first Autism Friendly hotel in the Valencian Community. This certification, awarded by the Autism Friendly Club, recognises Hotel Port Azafata as a space adapted to the needs of people on the autism spectrum, positioning it as a benchmark within the regional hospitality sector.
The process to achieve this certification involved comprehensive training for over 70% of the hotel’s staff, the adaptation of common areas with pictogram signage, and the implementation of personalised protocols to ensure a safer, more understandable and comfortable experience for all guests. Key initiatives include priority check-in, quiet rooms, special breakfast arrangements and the availability of sensory kits for moments of sensory overload.
This initiative is part of Guest of the Planet, Port Hotels’ social commitment to fostering responsible, accessible and sustainable tourism. Through this programme, the group promotes projects and certifications that enhance guest wellbeing and encourage the inclusion of diverse communities, consolidating Port Hotels as a leading example of social integration within the tourism sector.
Diego Fernández Pérez de Ponga, CEO of Port Hotels, commented:
"This certification reflects Port Hotels’ true commitment to people. We want to build a more human, accessible and inclusive way of travelling – and this is just the beginning of a path we are determined to follow."
Alberto Gutiérrez, President of Autism Friendly Club Global, added:
"Cognitive accessibility is an urgent need in tourism. Port Azafata Hotel has led the way in its region, showing that with the right training and intent, truly inclusive spaces can be created. This certification places the hotel at the forefront of tourism designed for everyone."
Port Hotels aims to extend these practices to other properties across the group, focusing on universal accessibility and neurodiversity. In Spain, over 650,000 people are on the autism spectrum – both children and adults travelling for leisure or business – highlighting a growing need for adapted accommodation and greater social responsibility.
With this milestone, Port Hotels reinforces its commitment to an inclusive, innovative and accessible model of tourism for all.

Port Hotels, the hotel chain based in Benidorm, is organizing a charity cocktail event on Thursday, November 28, at 8:30 p.m. at the Hotel Port Alicante City & Beach in support of Aspanion, the Association of Parents of Children with Cancer in the Valencian Community. This event will be the first of three that will mark a significant collaboration between the two organizations as part of Aspanion’s 40th anniversary.
For more than two years, Port Hotels has remained committed to Aspanion, collaborating on initiatives like World Childhood Cancer Day in various ways. In 2025, Aspanion will celebrate four decades dedicated to providing comprehensive support to families of children with cancer in the Valencian Community—a milestone that Port Hotels and the association have decided to commemorate with a series of celebratory events extending until February 2025.
This first gathering, a charity cocktail event at Port Alicante City & Beach, will serve not only as a fundraising platform but also as a meeting space for collaborators, families, volunteers, and supporters. It promises to be a special evening, dedicated to strengthening awareness of Aspanion’s cause and celebrating a collective commitment to the fight against childhood cancer.
Tickets for the event are available on the Port Hotels website for €40, with €5 from each ticket going directly to Aspanion’s projects. The funds raised will help finance the psychological, social, and economic support programs that the association has provided over its 40-year history, improving the quality of life for families during the most challenging times in their lives.
Through initiatives like this, Port Hotels reinforces its commitment to the communities where it operates, aligning its efforts with causes that truly make a difference.

The City Council grants a permit to Hotel Port Benidorm to build a 26-story tower
The Benidorm City Council has granted the building permit to expand Port Benidorm Hotel & Spa, located in the Rincón de Loix neighborhood. The establishment is owned by the renowned entrepreneur Toni Mayor, president of the Port Hotels chain and former leader of the sector’s employers' association in the Comunitat, Hosbec. The project includes the construction of an adjacent 26-story tower, eight more than the current flagship building in the city of skyscrapers. The work is expected to be completed before the high season of 2026, according to company sources.
The new building will house 125 hotel rooms, bringing the total to 406 rooms in the establishment. This will be achieved through a new structure connected to the existing building, as seen in the accompanying image. Of the 26 floors of the new tower, 23 will be dedicated to the new accommodation units, while the remaining floors will enhance and expand the range of services and common areas “to offer our guests a comprehensive luxury and wellness experience.”
Additionally, new pool areas will be added, and the hotel’s current rooftop will be expanded to increase the capacity and services of La Terrasse, the restaurant located in this space. Furthermore, the existing parking lot will be demolished and replaced with a new three-level parking area to improve capacity and accessibility.
Previously, the company had to initiate the entire procedure to apply for an Interior Reform Plan (PRI) that would allow them to increase the buildable area of the plot in exchange for compensating the municipality financially and relinquishing square meters in setbacks. However, according to the documentation, they do not have the environmental license prior to the building permit as it is still being processed. As a result, they have assumed the risk and responsibility for the consequences if it is not granted, thereby committing not to receive compensation. This is a reversal of steps allowed by law in such cases.
The deadline for the execution of the work is 24 months, and the permit will expire if the works have not commenced within six months of notification. Once started, the works will be halted for six months.
This is not the first renovation the hotel has undergone since being acquired by Toni Mayor. After purchasing the property, previously known as Los Dálmatas, the entrepreneur opened the doors of the new accommodation in 2016 with his signature touch following a significant transformation process and an investment of 13 million euros. He also established his headquarters there, from where he manages the chain, which includes eleven establishments throughout the Valencian Community. Five years later, he continued with the conversion by undertaking new works on the structure, followed by further expansions of the rooms and spaces, such as the rooftop converted into a bar with privileged views of the beach and the skyline. This constant evolution has allowed the hotel to achieve a superior four-star rating.
“The expansion of Port Benidorm Hotel & Spa not only reinforces Port Hotels’ commitment to growth and innovation in the hotel industry but also underscores its investment in Benidorm as a key destination for national and international tourism,” stated the hotel chain. They added, “With this project, Port Hotels continues to elevate the quality and service standards that have characterized the chain throughout its history.”
Currently, the company employs over 800 people, manages 1,925 rooms, and offers nearly 4,000 hotel beds.

Veranda, a new gastronomic refuge among palm trees
The Huerto del Cura Hotel, owned by the Port Hotels chain, launches a new gastronomic offering in its lush gardens.
Veranda is the name given to the new gastronomic space at the Huerto del Cura Hotel, a refuge of Mediterranean flavors in a unique setting, with an elegant and cozy atmosphere that promises to delight the senses of its visitors.
A veranda is defined as an outdoor living area, a place to relax and enjoy the surroundings, much like the space around the pool at the Huerto del Cura Hotel. Veranda stands as the ideal place to enjoy summer nights, the perfect setting for a special occasion or an intimate dinner in good company. Its privileged environment adds extra charm, turning each visit into a memorable experience.
The new garden bar is distinguished by its unique and sophisticated culinary offerings, including everything from rice dishes and focaccias to grilled meats, all prepared with fresh, local ingredients using modern cooking techniques.
Veranda's bartenders have created a selection of exclusive cocktails designed to reflect the essence of summer. These signature cocktails feature innovative combinations of flavors and techniques. Their cocktail menu focuses on using seasonal ingredients to ensure vibrant and authentic flavors. Although the cocktail list includes classics like mojitos, margaritas, and daiquiris, each is presented with Veranda's unique touch.
Veranda's cocktail offerings are also designed to complement its menu of tapas and light dishes. Each cocktail can be paired with menu options that enhance the flavors of both, creating a complete gastronomic experience.
Veranda is open daily for lunch and dinner, offering a complete experience that goes beyond gastronomy. On Thursday nights, diners can enjoy live music, while on Fridays, the resident DJ adds a vibrant touch to the evening with sessions of afro house, deep house, and chill out.
Veranda promises to be the trendy spot this summer in the city of Elche. With its innovative gastronomic proposal and incomparable setting, it positions itself as a must-visit for locals and tourists seeking a unique experience.
Nestled in the Huerto del Cura Hotel, it is recognized by many as a "city oasis" and is considered one of the most unique accommodations in the region. Its privileged location in the heart of the Palm Grove of Elche allows guests and visitors to lose themselves in a garden of delights unique to the province.
As a benchmark in its category of accommodations, the Huerto del Cura Hotel harmoniously combines exclusive bungalow rooms in the garden. Among the more than 600 specimens of ancient palm trees surrounding the hotel is also the Oasis Zen.

Guests can enjoy a wide range of body massages, facials, and guided circuits by a professional team of masseurs.
In its mission to be a place dedicated to body care, comfort, and well-being, gastronomy plays a fundamental role. The hotel dedicates a large part of its efforts to this field, being one of the city's reference kitchens.
Els Capellans, the hotel's in-house restaurant, completes the hotel's gastronomic offering with its traditional cuisine from Elche. Chef Jesús Gómez works to offer avant-garde cuisine without losing sight of those dishes so representative of the city, such as Elche delicacies or arroz con costra.
The gastronomy and exclusive spaces of the Huerto del Cura Hotel can also be enjoyed as an event venue. From intimate celebrations to conferences for up to 300 people.
The Huerto del Cura Hotel is a true oasis of tranquility in the center of Elche.

Port Hotels renews the Bioscore Certification in all its establishments in the Valencian Community
Port Hotels, a hotel chain with 11 hotels in Elche, Alicante, Benidorm, Calpe, Dénia, and Valencia, has renewed the Bioscore Certification across all its properties. Internationally recognized, the Bioscore Certification evaluates sustainability through its own standard, which is acknowledged by the GSTC (Global Sustainable Tourist Council). This prestigious certification is a testament to Port Hotels' commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.
The Bioscore certification assesses multiple aspects of sustainability, including energy efficiency, waste management, responsible use of natural resources, and sustainable labor practices. Port Hotels' properties have implemented a series of measures to reduce their environmental impact and promote more responsible tourism.
The Benidorm-based hotel group has worked to integrate sustainable practices into its daily operations across all departments, such as implementing motion sensor systems and energy-saving devices, recycling programs, reducing single-use plastics, installing drinking water dispensers, minimizing food waste, and collaborating with local suppliers to reduce the carbon footprint, among other initiatives.
This year, the company has incorporated water footprint calculations into its sustainability standards to optimize resources and reduce environmental impact. Water footprint data is crucial for planning long-term sustainable strategies that ensure the resilience of the establishments against potential water shortages in the future.
“The renewal of the Bioscore certification in all our establishments is an important milestone for Port Hotels. It not only reflects our 'Guests of The Planet' commitment but also offers our guests peace of mind, knowing that they are choosing responsible accommodations,” says Ana Mayor, Vice President of Port Hotels. “We believe it is our responsibility to care for the environment and the community in which we operate, and this certification is a significant step towards achieving that goal.”

The art of pruning the Palmeral de Elche at Huerto del Cura Hotel
The Hotel Huerto del Cura, owned by the Port Hotels chain, is a unique hotel located in the heart of the Palmeral of Elche, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000.
The Palmeral of Elche, also known as the Palm Groves of Elche, is a large expanse of palm trees within the city of Elche.
The hotel features more than 600 palm trees within its premises. They spread throughout the garden, around the pool, and blend with the rooms distributed in bungalows, forming a city oasis.
Every year, when summer arrives, it is time to prune the more than 200,000 specimens that make up this peculiar landscape. The Hotel Huerto del Cura not only offers a refuge of luxury and comfort but also bears witness to this millenary tradition. The hotel’s palm trees are also part of the municipal pruning plan carried out each year.
Pruning the palm trees is an essential activity to maintain the health and beauty of the palm grove. This process not only improves the appearance of the palm trees but also prevents diseases and pests, ensuring the longevity of these magnificent trees.
The pruning of the palm grove combines traditional techniques passed down from generation to generation with modern methods that guarantee the safety and effectiveness of the process. The pruners, known as "palmereros," are genuine artisans who use specific tools to cut the dry leaves and suckers, avoiding damage to the palm tree trunk.
Guests at the Hotel Huerto del Cura have had the unique opportunity to closely observe this fascinating activity.
We invite you to visit the Hotel Huerto del Cura and experience the magic of the Palmeral of Elche. For more information and reservations, visit our website.

Lean Management: How at Port Hotels we have improved the way we work to be better with each other and our customers
Lean Management is a powerful methodology aimed at continuous improvement. It involves identifying waste or "muda," which is defined as anything that does not add value for both internal and especially external customers, and eliminating it. Delays affecting guests, constant breakdowns, quality defects, movements of people and materials, warehouses full of perishable materials and products, or overproduction are considered waste and are the target to eradicate when working with Lean Management. At Port Hotels, we embrace this methodology to improve efficiency and, therefore, the satisfaction of both our internal and external customers. In this first foray into Lean Management, we have focused on the housekeeping and storeroom departments and have improved our internal procedures with cost reductions and task completion times. The application of Lean Management methodology requires the participation of teams that carry out most of the processes and are at the base of the hierarchical pyramid of a company. They always know what is happening or what may happen in a hotel, in our case.

Getaway to Valencia in May!
If you're looking forward to the May holiday weekend to escape the hustle and bustle of the capital, at Port Hotels, we have the perfect plan for you.
This time, we suggest visiting Valencia. It's a surprising destination with plenty of activities you can do in one, two, three days, or however long you wish to stay in the city. You'll always find something to do!
Your visit to the Valencian capital begins at one of the Port accommodations. Port Azafata and Port Feria are two three-star hotels located away from the city center but very well connected, a perfect option to forget about the car. On our website, you can reserve parking before your arrival. This way, you can use public transportation—metro, bus, or commuter rail—to get around to all your plans. Here are all the available options: How to Get Around Valencia | Valencia Transportation (visitvalencia.com)
Once you arrive in downtown Valencia, we suggest visiting some of the city's most important historical monuments. The Town Hall Square will be your first stop. Don't miss the chance to take a photo at its imposing entrance and admire its presidential balcony, so iconic during the Fallas festival.
If you continue your route towards Ciutat Vella, you'll find Plaza Redonda, the Central Market, the Silk Exchange, the Plaza de la Reina, the Valencia Cathedral, and the Plaza de la Virgen. Sightseeing tends to work up an appetite, so take advantage of the charming streets in this neighborhood to enjoy a terrace in the sun while tasting a traditional Valencian Paella.
Valencian Paella is a typical dish throughout the autonomous community, specifically originating from this city. Each locality has its own recipe, but the authentic one consists of rice, chicken, rabbit, green beans, tomato, "garrofó" (a type of bean), saffron, and olive oil.
To continue your getaway, we suggest an afternoon of shopping on Calle Colón, the most commercial area in Valencia. Fashion, makeup, technology, sports, home goods, local shops, and something for everyone.
At the end of Calle Colón, you'll find the imposing Valencia Bullring, operational since 1859. Next to it is the North Station, Valencia's historic main train station.
To top off a fantastic and complete day in Valencia, we suggest returning to the hotel and enjoying Room Service at Port Azafata. If, on the other hand, you're staying at Port Feria, you can enjoy a delicious informal dinner at the Cel & Terra restaurant.

La Palmera Cobra: The Singular Palm Tree of Elche from the Hotel Huerto del Cura
The Huerto del Cura hotel is located in the heart of Elche's palm grove. This was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO on November 30, 2000.
This highly significant location gives the hotel a special uniqueness in the province, which is characterized by having other types of tree specimens such as pine, olive or Valencian oak. Among all the palm trees that embrace the facilities of the Huerto del Cura hotel we find the so-called Palmera Cobra, a spectacular Phoenix palm tree that takes its name from its serpentine reptilian appearance. The experts who have studied this specimen of palm tree assure that about ¾ parts are completely horizontal, part of its trunk being even underground, to later rise imperially towards the sky crowning its peculiar physiognomy with abundant clusters of dates, the large protagonists of Elche's gastronomy and especially the Hotel Huerto del Cura, where the renowned 'delicacies of Elche' were born several decades ago. La Palmera Cobra is part of the Route of the Singular Palm Trees of Elche.
This route values the Palmeral de Elche and the landscape complex that it forms throughout the length and breadth of the Elche town. The route is made up of 18 palm trees that stand out for their history, morphology or unique beauty. These are located in the historic palm grove, which is also the best-known tourist route in the city. The route is completely free and can be done on foot or by bicycle. It begins at the El Tridente palm tree, passing through the Cobra palm tree until it reaches the Pipas del Travalón Bajo.
The Cobra palm tree has been, and is, the scene of multiple interviews and it does not go unnoticed by hotel guests and future bride and groom who choose this space for their wedding celebration.

In 2020 it was acquired by the Port Hotels hotel chain, a company led by businessman Toni Mayor, also president of the Hotel Association of the Valencian Community HOSBEC.

Toni Mayor, president of Port Hotels, receives the Tourism City of Benidorm 2022 award
The president of Port Hotels and HOSBEC Toni Mayor has received from the mayor of Benidorm, Toni Pérez, the special mention of the 'Tourism City of Benidorm 2022' Awards within the framework of the celebration of World Tourism Day.
In an emotional act held in the Assembly Hall of the City Council of the tourist capital of the Valencian Community, Toni Mayor was moved to receive the award "precisely in the city where I was born and in which I have developed a large part of my business facet and all my family life".
The President of Port Hotels has recognized that "it is difficult to find another city in the world that hurts us and engages us as much as Benidorm businessmen" recalling that it has been and is the engine of our lives and we have dedicated a lot of human and personal economic efforts in enhancing its image, in renewing its name and in always maintaining its power as a great Spanish tourist destination.
Mayor has revealed the secret behind Benidorm and its tourist industry which is "work, work and much more work. And when you work on what is your passion, work becomes fun, comfortable and with a large dose of satisfaction".
As is customary in all his speeches, there has also been room for claiming the necessary strategic infrastructures: "I would have liked this city to have an AVE connection, a rail link to the airport, a powerful shopping centre, a Cultural Center and the Palacio de Congresos operating at full capacity... " but it has also looked back on revolutionary milestones such as the General Plan, the free height or the modification that allowed the revolution of the hotel plant with 4 and 5 star establishments. "Benidorm has to continue to be the spearhead of the tourist avant-garde. This is how it has been since Pedro Zaragoza in this year that we celebrate the centenary of his birth" Mayor revered in his speech asking that "we do not let laziness and the ordinary invade us Continuing with that nonconformist, imaginative, innovative, groundbreaking spirit is what will guarantee us the future."
Toni Mayor will pilot the relief in the presidency of HOSBEC before the end of the year, "making way for the new generation of businessmen who have to lead the tourism sector in the Valencian Community". He has recalled how he began his mandate with the financial and real estate crisis of 2008 and that now we are facing the most important energy crisis since 1973 and the inflationary tsunami largely produced by Putin's madness."

Discover the beauty and wellness circuit of the Port Benidorm Spa
There is something magical about your inner peace and there are few places where you can find it. The Port Benidorm Spa offers a wellness circuit that leaves no one indifferent.
The main objective of this circuit is to lead you to a deep level of relaxation, in which you only pay attention to the sensations that each station transmits to you. Immerse yourself in these waters and reach your maximum inner and outer beauty.
In the first place, we will begin with the acclimatization of the body to prepare it for the temperature changes that we will experience next. The optimal duration for acclimatization should be approximately 5 minutes and consists of a first warm water shower before entering the Spa. In this way we will also eliminate traces of creams, perfumes or dirt from our body that can be harmful when in contact with chlorine and high temperatures.
The circuit begins in the Finnish sauna. It is a great blow of dry heat, between 70 and 100º of temperature, to activate cell regeneration, eliminate liquids, rejuvenate the skin... The duration should be about 10 minutes and always interspersed with warm or cold water showers.
Next, it is the turn of the heated pool. Ten full minutes of relaxation and decontracting body massage thanks to the pressurized water jets.
Fourth, we will go through the hammam, also known as the Turkish bath. This is a treatment similar to the sauna with the difference that the heat comes from water vapor and natural essences that evaporate to dilate the pores of the skin. Its main function is the elimination of toxins and substances accumulated by daily pollution. For 15 minutes we will alternate the Turkish bath with cold water showers for an optimal effect.
Finally, we will do an exercise of intense temperature contrasts with the help of the ice pool and the heated pool, about 3 minutes each successively.
To finish, we recommend you relax your body in the hammock area, to recover the usual temperature and let the treatment flow correctly.

Likewise, both directors have shared the roadmap of the next projects that the company has devised and launched for the growth of the establishment and the experience of its clients.
“Since Port Hotels acquired the Hotel Huerto del Cura in 2019, our mission has been to consolidate and extend the vision of the founding family so that the hotel continues to be an icon of reference for accommodation in its category, a meeting point for the society of Elche and a place to come to celebrate the happy moments of our lives”, explained Toni Mayor at the end of his speech.
During the event, a video was also broadcasted with different testimonies in which important personalities highlighted its role as a catalyst for the socioeconomic development of the city of Elche and the well-being of its citizens.

We are the meeting point for many families for large celebrations and meetings, and we are also a strategic ally for companies that trust us for their extraordinary activities.

Literary Gastro Dinners at La Taula Restaurant in Elche
A few years ago, the La Taula restaurant in Elche began a stage aimed at this restless public and a lover of literary novelties, regularly establishing one Friday of each month the Literary Gastro Dinners.
In these evenings, writers are invited to share a debate and dinner with those attending the meeting. A meeting full of flavors with a gastronomic proposal inspired by the work to be discussed: an authentic experience for the five senses.
It is a special meeting in which, in addition to getting closer to the content of his latest book, attendees have the opportunity to get to know the authors more closely; the atmosphere in which the evening takes place is conducive to listening to endless anecdotes that bring us closer to both the novelist and his characters.
The night begins with a welcome cocktail in which you have the first opportunity to meet the writer and this is followed by a dinner, whose menu is dedicated in a particular way to the details of the work with dishes that are inspired by the content of the book and evoke its characters. A special dinner and a good pairing are the ideal ingredient to share opinions and current literary issues, where you can also end up talking about other works by the author or his prose.
But these encounters go further. It is the author himself who wants his readers to know them better. Attendees listen with interest to personal details that never appear on the cover of the book in their hands, some even dare to ask them questions. The most eager to know are prepared with a bookmark to understand the reason for a special chapter.
To date, La Taula restaurant has had the opportunity to develop these dinners with Marta Robles, Dolores Redondo, Manuel Vilas, Nativel Preciado, Paloma Sanchez-Garnica, Santiago Posteguillo and Carmen Mola, among others.
The next appointment will be next Friday, June 10, when Jon Sistiaga will visit us, one of the most relevant investigative journalists in our country who makes his debut as a novelist with a shocking story in his book El Purgatorio.
These literary gatherings that spice up the gastronomy of Elche are an authentic experience that no book lover should miss.

At Port Hotels we are renovating our establishments
At Port Hotels we are taking advantage of the inactivity of the tourism sector to invest 3 million euros in our establishments and make a qualitative leap in many of our products.
After raising 48 million in 2019, 11.6% more than the previous year, we are allocating part of this capital to updating our hotels in order to come back to business in perfect shape and being being much more competitive.
Among the most important investments is the construction of the foundations to build a second tower in our flagship hotel in Benidorm, the Port Benidorm Hotel & Spa (4 * Sup). This expansion will be carried out in a first phase in which the foundation of the tower will be made, a first floor with new offices for the headquarters teams, whose growth will be constant in the coming years, and a second floor in where a multimedia room will be located as a service with high added value for customers. In the second phase of construction, to which between 10 and 12 million euros will be allocated, the rest of the tower will be erected, which will hold 120 more rooms, which will result in a hotel with 400 total rooms. In addition, the new tower will hold about 400m² more of dining room spaces and a heated outdoor swimming pool for guests staying in the new Suite rooms.
From Port Hotels we are also going to allocate part of the 3 million to the renovation of 9 rooms in the historic Hotel Huerto del Cura (Elche). This project will translate into a qualitative leap for these rooms and a considerable increase in their average price, designed to offer an experience typical of a five-star hotel.
In the Hotel Port Feria Valencia, the entire kitchen has been refurbished and in the Hotel Port Azafata Valencia, we have completed the renovation of the poolnd jacuzzi areas.
In addition, we will dedicate a good part of the resources to actions such as the improvement or creation of playgrounds in hotels such as Port Denia (Denia), Port Fiesta Park (Benidorm), Port Jardín Milenio (Elche) or Port Europa (Calpe), as well as the equipment, furnishings and painting of most of the hotels on the property.
During the months of inactivity due to the pandemic, the company has not only dedicated itself to the maintenance and upgrade of our establishments, but we have also created an online training platform for our employees, where they have received constant support, have had Access to professional coaching sessions and they have been able to update their skills for the openings.
Throughout 2021, the chain also plans to invest in a rigorous Corporate Social Responsibility plan that will turn our hotels into products not only for accommodation or vacations but also a lifestyle choice.
