Best Western Grows South Africa Portfolio from One to 14 Hotels
Best Western Hotels & Resorts will add Orion Hotels' 13 properties, in South Africa, to its portfolio during the next 12 months. Orion will manage the hotels and play an integral role in Best Western's growth elsewhere in the region. By July 2016, Velmoré Hotel Estate in Erasmia, outside Pretoria, and Hotel Promenade in Nelspruit will be branded as Best Western Plus, and the Magoebaskloof Hotel in the Limpopo province will become a Best Western. Orion's remaining 10 hotels will complete rebranding, which includes adapting to brand standards, by the end of the first quarter of 2017. Best Western also has the Best Western Cape Suites in Cape Town.
