Gucci hotels can be developed in Russia

Luxury hotelier Elisabetta Gucci has unveiled a global expansion programme that will include opening 40 new lifestyle hotels across the globe over the next 15 years, starting with the opening its first property in Dubai by the end of 2010.

The company said that construction of its flagship 87-room luxury boutique hotel in Dubai is complete, and that the firm is eyeing a second hotel in China next year.

Partner Lorens Ziller at Elisabetta Gucci Hotels & Resorts told the Reuters Global Luxury Summit: “We intend to develop other hotels for the GCC, and outside our focus will be Russia, China, Far East, Africa and South America, particularly Brazil.”
