Austria Trend expands franchise with Radisson Blu

,

“Austria Trend Hotel Park Royal Palace” now renamed “Radisson Blu Park Royal Palace Hotel Vienna.

Our colleagues from Austria Trend Hotels, Austria’s largest hotel group, are entering into a franchise partnership with Radisson Blu, Europe’s largest upper-upscale brand, for another one of its top hotels. The 4-star superior hotel, currently known as the Austria Trend Hotel Park Royal Palace Vienna, is now a Radisson Blu franchise. Austria Trend Hotels have already been successfully cooperating with the Radisson Blu Hotel Altstadt in Salzburg since 2001. The cooperation strengthens the positioning of the Hotel Park Royal Palace as a leading international hotel in the immediate vicinity of Schönbrunn Palace. With 233 rooms and a 900 square meter conference area, the hotel is one of the leading hotels in Vienna’s event hotel industry. Particularly striking is the extraordinary architecture with gold accents and the connecting bridge to the Technical Museum.

 

Verkehrsbüro Group: Family-friendly employer award

Verkehrsbüro Group renews credentials.

Austria’s Verkehrsbüro Group has been a state-certified, family-friendly place to work since 2008. A short time ago, our Group was recertified for a further three years.

As a major Austrian tourism company, we firmly believe in helping our people to achieve a healthy work-life balance, in line with a family-friendly philosophy that extends across all levels of the Group. Long-term staff development activities aimed at maximising motivation and employee satisfaction require an even stronger focus on ensuring the compatibility of our employees’ private and professional lives. We want to work together to build a successful future and implement measures specifically designed to enhance our status as an attractive employer.

Family-friendly measures at the Group:

  • Employees on parental leave have full access to the Verkehrsbüro Group’s training and development programmes. We also offer special seminars on work-family balance which are grouped together under the “Family, Work & Parenting” category.
  • We also offer a month’s parental leave for new fathers, which gives them a great opportunity to spend those special early days with their newborns and focus entirely on their family lives for a while.
  • We also organise summer camps for our employees’ children.
