Anchorage Leisures Limited, owners of Radisson Blu Anchorage Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, has confirmed that renovation activities at the hotel are underway.
The management of the company also confirmed that its present focus is to ensure that the renovation activities are conducted to time and quality specifications so that the hotel can resume operations as soon as possible.
In a statement to present update on activities, Anchorage Leisures Limited said that all pre-renovation planning activities have been successfully concluded and implementation is underway immediately. “We have successfully relocated guests into alternative facilities and all entitlements have been paid to disengaged staff”, the statement added.
Commenting on protests by some members of staff, the company noted that staff who protested must have misconstrued the intention of management. The statement reiterated that the hotel temporarily shut down business operations strictly because of the magnitude of the renovation and not because management had issues with members of staff as wrongly insinuated.
The statement again noted that “given the company’s strict adherence to global health and safety standards, it would be wrong to have retained guests and staff on the premises while conducting the magnitude of renovations underway.”
Finally, the statement maintained that the utmost objective of the management of Anchorage Leisures Limited is to follow through with the renovation of its facilities as well as critical equipment so that the hotel can re-open to guests with increased focus on delivery of superior quality hospitality services in the shortest possible time.
Anchorage Leisures Limited was founded to promote hospitality, tourism and culture through active participation and strategic partnerships with global leaders in hospitality industry. Anchorage Leisures is the owner of the 170-room, 5-star Radisson Blu Anchorage Hotel, on Victoria Island, Lagos.
