Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts has signed a management contract for a de luxe hotel in the city of Sochi, Russia.

Swissôtel already runs the well-established Swissôtel Krasnye Holmy, Moscow and soon guests of the brand will have the option of staying at a beach resort in Sochi when the 200-room Swissôtel Sochi Kamelia opens in 2013.

Meinhard Huck, President of Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts commented, "Most of our company's hotels are primarily city hotels in large metropolises, but the Swissôtel Sochi Kamelia will be a beach resort in a wonderful park with old trees and a private beach. I am sure individual tourists and business travellers will feel at ease here likewise."
