Positioned as a full-service modern luxury hotel brand, Viceroy is the flagship brand of Viceroy Hotel Group, delivering an exciting array of five star hotels and resorts located across the world.

With hotels in five locations globally: Mexico, US, Caribbean, Maldives and UAE and future properties located in the Middle East, Portugal and Colombia, Viceroy offers a stunning collection of hotels and resorts to choose from, further enhancing GHA’s current portfolio.

He said:  “Viceroy Hotel Group joins us at an exciting time, not only as we continue to strengthen our presence in some of the world’s most sought-after destinations, but also just as we re-launch our Discovery loyalty programme, with a stronger emphasis on the individuality of our member brands.

“We feel privileged to have Viceroy’s prestigious properties included within our portfolio, both under GHA as well as Ultratravel Collection; and we are now able to offer our 5.4 million Discovery members an even larger variety of hotels to choose from.”

The integration of Viceroy Hotels & Resorts into GHA and Ultratravel Collection will be completed by the beginning of April 2015, bringing GHA’s network to over 550 hotels and 31 independent brands.
