Accor Hospitality has inked a deal with Chavana Spa to develop and manage spas in its properties across the Middle East and Pakistan.
The deal will see hotel spas developed in the Novotel, Mercure and Pullman branded properties across the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar.
Accor Hospitality managing director Christophe Landais said: "Our agreement with Chavana Spa is an opportunity to synergize both our brands to bring exceptional services to our guests".
"Novotel, Mercure and Pullman [which will soon rise in the region], will be able to offer first-class spas that will further pamper guests for a truly rejuvenating hotel stay," he said.
Mandara Spa president and chief operating officer Jeff Matthews said the company already had a decade long relationship with Accor in Asia, and was looking to extend it into the Middle East region.
Accor Hospitality plans to open 90 hotels in the Middle East by 2011.
