Since all eyes are focused on Rio de Janeiro, on account of the World Cup and the Olympics, and hotels are one of the weaknesses of the city, nothing better than having an expert around. Claus Sendlinger, German CEO and founder of Design Hotels, a publicly traded company that represents a network of more than 190 hotels in 40 countries, is here in the country.
* He is very enthusiastic about being here and has asked to meet a group of big names in town. Of course everybody was more than happy to oblige and there will be a dinner meeting at Santa Teresa Hotel, hosted by Patricia Brandão on Thursday. On schedule? Claus’s many plans for our country.
