Rixos Hotels

France's AccorHotels and Turkey's Rixos Hotels signed a strategic partnership deal to expand mainly in the luxury segment, Reuters reported March 6. 

Under a long-term joint venture, both parties said they intended to collaborate, develop and manage Rixos-branded resorts and hotels around the world, according to statements from the companies. 

The best news in recent days is this: One of the most important port cities of the ancient era, Phaselis in Antalya, has finally been saved with its ruins dating back to the seventh century B.C. together with its endemic plants, whose names are mentioned in mythology.
