The Craigellachie Hotel is giving away 1000 rooms between
01 October and 20 December, 2001!!
Why?
The Craigellachie Hotel of Speyside in the North East of
Scotland is taking an agressive and pro-active stance in the
light of recent terrorist atrocities and the subsequent
negative effects on the travel and tourist industires. This
renowned four-star 25 bedroom hotel is offering 1000
rooms free to clients booking between now and the end of
the year.
Mr Duncan Elphick, General Manager of the Craigellachie
said: "The recent situation in America has, quite
understandably, made everyone cautious about travelling
and the overseas tourist interest has disappeared. However,
we at the Craigellachie refuse to accept that such an
incident should put paid to people's love of travel and
leisure. We must remain positive and take steps to stimulate
business, not only for ourselves but also for the local
economy. That is why we are not just discounting, but
actually giving rooms away!"
Many companies are laying off staff and closing
departments, but Mr Elphick feels this is only exacerbating
the situation. He said: "Rather than reacting negatively by
cost cutting and putting our staff and their families'
livelihoods at risk, I believe we, and others, should be
doing everything possible to maintain employment. Like
Ryanair we are responding vigorously to the circumstances
that prevail and I totally agree with Michael O'Leary's
(CEO-Ryanair) statement that the best way out of the
current economic uncertainty is to promote travel, stimulate
leisure activity and fight the proponents of gloom. Surely a
thousand rooms is a small price to pay to weather the
storm. We are doing pretty well at the Craigellachie, despite
everything, but, like Mr O'Leary, I want to make a point in
the hope that others will take inspiration from it."
