Associated Luxury Hotels International Adds Hotels in Cuba, Puerto Rico

Associated Luxury Hotels International has expanded its Caribbean options with the recent addition of two luxury hotels to its membership portfolio. The new Gran Hotel Manzana Kempinksi La Habana, which just opened in Havana, Cuba in early June, is ALHI's first member in Cuba. The El San Juan Hotel becomes ALHI's second option in San Juan, Puerto Rico, joining the Condado Vanderbilt Hotel in the ALHI portfolio. In addition, ALHI also can now coordinate meetings and incentive programs on luxury cruises to Cuba, through its Global Luxury Alliance members Norwegian Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises and Regent Seven Seas Cruises. 

With the new additions, ALHI has a portfolio of 29 hotels and resorts in 12 countries and territories in the Bahamas, Bermuda and Caribbean region. ALHI's worldwide portfolio offers more than 250 luxury-level and upper-upscale hotels and resorts, which are either independent or are with an independent hotel brand, and which specialize in serving the MICE marketplace. 

The Gran Hotel Manzana Kempinksi La Habana

The Gran Hotel Manzana Kempinksi La Habana has 246 rooms and suites and 2,852 square feet of meeting space. The hotel also offers the Spa Albear by Resense, a rooftop terrace and swimming pool, three restaurants, lobby bar, cigar lounge, fitness center, complimentary Wi-Fi, 24-hour concierge service, a business center, and 24-hour-in-room dining.
