The Park Inn Lipetsk is currently under construction. Rezidor now has over 8,500 rooms in operation or under development in Russia, including nearly 5,000 Park Inn rooms.

The Park Inn hotel will be located on a prime site south of the city center and 300 m from the River Voronezh. Besides 237 rooms, it will feature an all day dining restaurant, a Paulaner micro-brewery, two bars, and conferencing and leisure facilities. Developer of the project is joint stock company ‘Kuznetskiy Most Development’, one of the most professional companies in the Russian market.

Lipetsk is located 450km south of Moscow and has a population of 500,000. It is the capital of the regional Oblast and the administrative, industrial and cultural center of the area.

“This hotel marked our 35th signing in 2009. Despite the challenging climate, we could add almost 7,000 rooms to our portfolio across Europe, the Middle East and Africa”, says Kurt Ritter, president & CEO of Rezidor.

Park Inn is Rezidor’s young, and innovative mid market brand. Launched in early 2003, the portfolio today features more than 130 hotels with more than 24,000 rooms in operation and under development across Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
