Princess Hotel continues to play integral role in motor racing

Nov 06, 2012 Sports

 

Recognising the importance of sponsors’ contribution towards the reality and viability of hosting an event the magnitude of the Caribbean Motor Racing Championship, Kaieteur Sport recently posed a few questions to the Princess Hotel regarding its support for this Sunday’s final leg of the Series set for the South Dakota Circuit.
Assistant General Manager Petal Ridley responded to our questions on behalf of the Hotel where many of the drivers will be hosted during their stay for the Meet.
KN-Could you tell us about the genesis of the relationship?
PR- When the Princess Hotel acquired its name in 2009, a sound relationship was formed with the Guyana Motor Racing & Sports Club (GMR&SC) that blossomed into a successful and rewarding one.
KS- Tell us how it has been able to benefit your Organisation.
PR-The Hotel has since benefitted in various ways from such fruitful relationship. An increase in the guest list during the international race meets was recorded which evidently resulted from the GMR&SC promotions of the hotel. The Princess Hotel and Casino is now renowned by the populace including the Caribbean community.
KS- I know that the Hotel has been consistently supportive of many sports and other social activities such as the Miss Universe etc. but what has been the feedback from patrons, organizers, promoters in terms of the hospitality and other related services that you offer?
PR- Apart from the GMR&SC, there are numerous organizations that are supported by the Princess. There are entertainment companies, sports organizations, religious organizations, etc. who have developed solid relationships with the hotel over time because they would have been offered the very best hospitality that Princess provides to their guests.
KS- Could you list some of the services and recreational facilities patrons could enjoy during their stay at the Hotel.
PR- All guests staying at the Princess enjoy many side attractions available right at the Hotel. There’s our Casino, known for being the only of its kind in Guyana offering over 250 slot machines from which to choose. Interactive slots, multi-line machines, traditional “reel” slot machines and the latest video reel machines on the market. The Princess Casino also offers over 14 casino table games including high-limit tables for premium casino players who enjoy Blackjack, Roulette, Three-card Poker and Stud Poker. With so many choices of games it is guaranteed to have something special for everyone. Guests spend their leisure time using the swimming pool which is the largest hotel pool in Guyana or if they are more into sports; they take pleasure in a game of lawn tennis, basketball or miniature golf. Afterwards, they take a walk over to our fully air-conditioned gym, which offers an array of modern equipment, maintaining perfect fitness while enjoying their stay at the Princess. When ready to relax and unwind, trained professionals in the spa and salon are always prepared to massage away all the tension.
KS- Will this commitment to the GMR&SC continue in the future?
PR- The GMR&SC has shown commitment to the Princess and the Hotel will continue to support the GMR&SC in all future endeavours.
