#Tourism Report Card

Hotel chain announced the tourism report card for 2023

With the end of summer, the holiday season is also behind us. The hotel chain, which recently opened its 13th facility in Istanbul Ataşehir, announced its 2023 report card. Selectum Hotels & Resort Executive Board Member Tayfun Turanlıoğlu said, “We had a season this year where we tried to reduce the effects of the pandemic. We offered our guests a pleasant and peaceful holiday experience by keeping our health and safety measures at the highest level. We have hosted more than 350 thousand guests from more than 40 countries in our hotels in Side, Belek, Kemer, Bodrum and Istanbul in Turkey, and in Cuba, Vietnam and the Dominican Republic abroad. Our markets with the highest increase this year were Germany and Poland. England, Romania, Türkiye and Russia remained our main markets.” “We will continue to grow with new investments” Tayfun Turanlıoğlu said, “We are also assertive in the field of meetings and organizations. We stand out especially with our services for sports groups. Many teams from football and sports branches preferred our hotels. "We also hosted various events in fields such as culture, art and education," and added: “We recently opened our latest facility, Selectum City Ataşehir. With this hotel, we offer an accommodation alternative in the business and financial center of Istanbul. We will continue new investments in 2024. We will both expand to new destinations and further improve our existing facilities through renovation. Thus, we aim to open new employment areas while contributing to tourism.” “We will increase our share in both sea and land tourism” Selectum Hotels & Resort Executive Board Member Tayfun Turanlıoğlu concluded his words as follows: “The latest data announced by the Turkish Statistical Institute shows that there was a 27% increase in tourism revenues in the first 6 months of this year compared to last year. We continue our efforts to increase this success by gaining momentum. “We will continue to make a difference in both sea and land tourism in the coming period.”
