Meliá Hotels to Launch New Theme Hotel in Mallorca

Katmandu Park, a new generation theme park located in Mallorca, Spain, has partnered with Meliá Hotels International on a new entertainment experience to the island. For the 2013 tourist season, the Sol Magaluf Park hotel, adjacent to the Katmandu Park, will be transformed into a Katmandu-themed hotel.

Known as Sol Katmandu Resort, the project will offer the island's only hotel park resort experience. Guests will enjoy a variety of exclusive entertainment benefits in Katmandu Park including unlimited entry until 6 p.m. on all ticketed attractions each day of their stay and a private gated entrance to the park from the hotel. Katmandu's famous Yeti, Boro, and other park characters will also make appearances at the hotel children's club and other events.

The theming of the hotel includes plans for special effects on the three facades of the hotel exterior and architectural mapping encompassing the hotel's entire northwest façade for an evening event. Starting in June of this year, guests of all Sol Hotels located in the Palmanova and Magaluf areas will enjoy the special privileges of the “Sol FunPass.”

This entertainment card guarantees that Sol guests will receive the best value in the marketplace to both Katmandu Park attractions and its sister attraction, Golf Fantasia, for their entire length of stay, along with free entry to certain ticketed attractions within each park.

A special agreement with the municipality’s taxi service is also underway. For one euro per person, per journey, Sol Hotel guests will be able to travel to and from their hotel to Katmandu Park and Golf Fantasia, or from park to park. An exclusive advertising arrangement has also been announced to promote Katmandu Park and Melia Hotel brands over the next five years.

The Sol-Katmandu alliance is part of the initiative that Meliá Hotels International announced in October 2011 to inaugurate a major project in Calvià this summer. Known as "Calvià Beach Resort," the hotel and leisure mega resort is aimed at transforming the Magaluf area.
