Marriott is an international hotel chain which is located around the world but particularly in the USA. Now it is time for the U.S. and international hotel chain to enter the Swedish and Nordic market.
In 2010, Marriott will open two new hotels in Sweden and the plan is that a further 15 to 25 new hotels should be inaugurated in Sweden, Norway and Finland before 2013. This means that there will be opportunities to work across the Nordic region.
The new hotels will open under the names Marriott, Renaissance and Courtyard and Marriott Executive Apartments.
Before the end of 2010, the following hotels will be finalized: - Courtyard by Marriott Stockholm on Kungsholmen in Stockholm, with 272 rooms
- Renaissance Malmö Hotel with 120 rooms, located in central Malmö
- Oslo International Airport Marriott Hotel in Oslo, with 300 rooms
- Marriott Trysil Ski Resort
- Courtyard by Marriott Kristiansund International Airport, with 155 rooms.
- We look forward to growing in this region. The hotels we present gives us a solid presence in the luxury and full-service segment. We also look forward to work with SHG and are confident that our brands will be beneficial for these market said Bitta Brueckmann, Regional Vice President Sales & Marketing, Continental Europe.
The hotel industry is an industry that requires a lot of staff. Therefore, there will be plenty of job opportunities for Swedes as well as seeking employment in the rest of the Nordic countries in various areas such as marketing, catering, finance, entertainment, real estate and service of various kinds. This is also a pleasant environment to work in with high standards.
