This hotel is the first investment by the Canadian group to open in the Alentejo, a region where they have four hotel projects.
Covering an area of more than eight thousand square meters, the Hilton Garden Inn Évora has 130 rooms and an outdoor swimming pool on the terrace, with a bar. The hotel also has a restaurant, gym and meeting room with capacity for up to 50 people.
For Jordi Vilanova, President of Mercan Properties, the debut of the Mercan Group in the Alentejo “is a remarkable investment for Mercan Properties, which thus inaugurates a new hotel in yet another historic city in Portugal, through an international brand of excellence: the Hilton Garden Inn – which perfectly illustrates the real benefits and the capacity that foreign investment presents to implement innovative projects, which present themselves as stimulators of economic and tourist dynamism. This new hotel unit stems from the Residence Permits for Investment regime, thus demonstrating the potential of this type of regime for the effective creation of wealth, tourist attractiveness and employment”.
Mercan Properties estimates that the Hilton Garden Inn Évora will create 95 direct jobs with the start of operations.
