The hospitality group said its presence at the regions leading event for the travel industry underscores its commitment to the Middle East region, which it views as one of its strongest growth markets.

Since we opened our first hotel in the Middle East in Cairo at The First Residence in 2000 the region as a whole has witnessed a rapidly maturing and discerning hospitality market. Today we have more than 10 properties in the region, including three in the GCC, in Riyadh, Doha and Dubai, and a very active pipeline of development across the entire GCC and wider Middle East, said Christian Clerc, Senior Vice President, Hotel Operations, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

He added: In 2014 we moved our EMEA Sales Office from Geneva to Dubai which further underscores the important place we believe this region holds in our growth as a brand in the coming years. With a presence at ATM 2015, we expect to share updates on upcoming properties, key renovations, F&B concept launches and other news of relevance to our regional guests and further deepen our relationships with our key travel trade stakeholders and corporate clients. ATM will take place this year from May 4-7, 2015 at Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre. Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts will be exhibiting at Stand Number HC7170.
