PanARMENIAN.Net - Members of the
Union of Tour Operators of Armenia decided to break off contracts with Europe Hotel till receiving admissible offers from the owners. The decision was taken at the sitting of the Union in response to the incorrect policy of the hotel management and specifically to the fact that the exchange rate in the hotel made 500 AMD against $1, what does not correspond to the rate established by the Central Bank of Armenia. Actually it means rise in prices with about 15-20%, what is groundless and inadmissible. During the meeting with the hotel management the tour operators tried to explain that the current situation is inadmissible for the business. They brought the examples of hotels, which succeeded in finding a way-out of the situation with minimal losses for both parties. However the hotel management failed to take into account the opinion of the tour operators. Thus, the Union of Tour Operators of Armenia arrived at the decision to break off cooperation with Europe Hotel.
