Orbis Hotel Group, strategic partner of AccorHotels – a world-leading travel & lifestyle group – in Eastern Europe and the sole licensor of all AccorHotels brands in the region, further strengthens its development in Romania with the opening of Mercure Sighisoara, the first Mercure hotel outside Bucharest.

“In Romania, being one of the most dynamic markets in the region, we are aiming to target the leading position by further developing our network of hotels, predominantly through partnerships with the help of potent local partners,” commented Gilles Clavie, President and CEO of Orbis Hotel Group. “I’m delighted by the arrival of the Mercure brand to Sighisoara, to be followed by further planned openings throughout Romania, confirming the dynamism of our development strategy in the country.”
