• The Hilton Rhodes Resort is a 402-room fi ve-star hotel with a beach-front
location, situated in Ixia, Rhodes. The property is one of the premier resort
hotels on the island.
• The hotel opened in 1993. It benefi ts from extensive conference and
leisure facilities, as well as large guestrooms (standard rooms of 32 m2).
The property has a total built area of approximately 62,250 m2 and stands
on a land plot of approximately 85,000 m2.
• Rhodes is the fourth largest Greek island and benefi ts from numerous
attractive beaches, unspoilt villages and historical attractions. The
island has the largest number of hotel beds of all Greece’s islands, which
combined with its accessibility and excellent climate, makes it a leading
Mediterranean leisure and convention destination.
• The hotel is located within walking distance from the island’s two largest
conference and convention centres, which are also two of the largest in the
Mediterranean region. Both are important demand generators for the hotel.
• From opening up to 2000, the hotel was operated by Grecotel. Since then,
the hotel has been operated by Hilton International under a management
agreement. This management agreement will be terminated upon a sale.
• In recent years, the hotel has performed well below its full potential.
Through improved operating effi ciency, scope exists to substantially
improve the profi tability of the hotel.
• The hotel is off ered for sale by Ionian Hotel Enterprises S.A., a member of
the Alpha Bank Group.

Hotel HistoryIonian Hotel Enterprises S.A. (the “Company”), a
member of the Alpha Bank Group specializing in hotel
assets management, undertook in 1987 the construction
of a hotel property in Ixia, Rhodes, currently operated
as the “Hilton Rhodes Resort” (the “Hotel”). Τhe architect
team consisted of renowned Greek professionals,
including Mr. Tombazis, Mr Dekavalas, Mr. Georgiadis,
and Mr. Kiriakidis.
Hotel construction was completed in 1993, and
the Hotel started operating under the management of
Grecotel S.A. The inauguration ceremony was conducted
on June 1993 and the Hotel assumed full operations
shortly afterwards under the name “Rhodes Imperial
Grecotel”.
The management agreement with Grecotel expired
on 31st December 2000 and Hilton International has
since undertaken the Hotel management and has
been operating the Hotel under the name the “Hilton
Rhodes Resort.”

LocationThe Hotel is situated on the north-west side of the island, on the beach of Ialyssos (Ixia),
a picturesque townlet surrounded by orchards. It is set between a beautiful green hillside
(Mt Filaremos) and the beach of Ixia, combining sea and mountain views and providing
opportunities for diverse activities. It is just 13 kilometers from the Diagoras International
Airport and 4 kilometers from the city of Rhodes. A footpath for walks connects Ixia bay to the
city of Rhodes. A link road that connects the Hotel to the main island artery of Rhodes - Lindos
facilitates guests’ transportation.
The west side of the island combines popular resorts, important archaeological sites,
and picturesque villages. Important sites include the church of the Dormition of Theotokos
(Virgin Mary, Mother of God) with its famous woodcarved temple, the Acropolis of lalyssos
(just 6 km away), and ancient Ialyssos, one of the most important archaeological sites on
the island located on the hill of Filerimos, that hosts the remains of the temple of Zeus and
Athena Poliada as well as the remnants of the Byzantine fortifi cations, the 14th century church
of the Knights. A winding island road leads up to the ancient town of Rhodes, one of the few
preserved medieval towns in Europe featuring the buildings in which the Knights of St. John
lived six centuries ago.
Ixia is one of the most touristically developed regions of Rhodes Island, hosting two of
the largest and most complete conference and convention centres in the Mediterranean.
Milder weather conditions are prevalent on the west side of the island compared to the east
section. In particular, Ialyssos Bay is considered one of the most favorite sites for windsurfers.
In addition, Afandou Golf Course is just 17 kilometers away.RHODES

Property OverviewThe Hotel is one of the most luxurious properties on the Island of Rhodes,
ranked as a fi ve-star property by the Hellenic Chamber of Hotels (only 12
hotels in Rhodes island, out of 988 in total, are ranked as “fi ve-star”). It is

Its exterior design combines elements of the Rhodian as well as modern
Greek architecture. Local craftsmanship has been extensively utilized to
lend to the building a very unique character. Typical examples comprise the
facade of the building as well as most public areas of the Hotel, such as the
main lounge area and restaurant Castellania, that are artistically veneered
with “Rhodian plaster” respecting the regional architectural tradition. The
high quality interior design features local marble and wooden paneling
which gives the impression of elegance and space, off ering luxurious,
sophisticated facilities for the leisure or business traveler. To add further, the
utilisation of natural daylight is prevalent in all public spaces, the main lobby,
the restaurants and the conference areas of the 6th and 7th fl oor.

LOCATION AND ACCESSIBILITY
Rhodes is located at the southeastern edge of the archipelagos of the
Dodecanese, facing the shores of Asia Minor, which are about 9-10 kilometers
away.
Easy accessibility to the island via the airport and the sea port, facilitates
travelling to and from other regions of Greece and abroad:
• There are daily boats from Pireaus (Athens port) and frequent connections
to the rest of the Dodecanese islands (Patmos, Kalymnos, Leros and
Kos) as well as to other islands in the Aegean sea, including the popular
Santorini, Mykonos, and Crete. There are also less frequent ferries to
islands at the Northern side of the Aegean Sea (Samos, Chios, Lesvos and
Limnos) as well as to Thessaloniki, the second largest city in Greece.
• Highspeed boats allow for daily excursions or overnight trips to nearby
locations (such as the islands of Simi, Kastelorizo, Kos, Kalymnos, Patmos,
Tilos and Leros) and the Turkish sea shore. Daily cruises around the island
visiting isolated pristine beaches are also available.
• There are several daily fl ights from Athens and three fl ights a week from
Santorini. Charters directly from major European cities are
arranged during the summer months.
• British Airways has two direct fl ights per week, on Wednesday
and Saturday, from London Gatwick.

exceeds 110,000 people.
WEATHER
Rhodes has around nine months of sunlight annually, which sets it as
the sunniest place in Greece and one of the sunniest in Europe. Its climate
is subtropical and healthy. Refreshing westerly winds moderate the summer

inhabitants arrived. It was not, however, until around 1550BC when the
Minoans arrived followed by the Myceaneans and the Dorians in 1100BC,
that Rhodes began to fl ourish. Since then, numerous peoples and countries
ruled the island before it fi nally became part of Greece in 1948 along with all

and built strong fortifi cations, magnifi cent buildings, wide roads and
numerous squares.
Modern Rhodes Town is currently inhabited by well over 60,000 residents.
It is also the fi rst port of call for many visitors due to its commercial harbour.

Municipality of Lalyssos - This is a thriving and popular tourist resort region, with modern hotels
suitable for holidaymakers, business travellers and conferences alike. Its location on the north westernly
part of the island protects it from the strong southerly winds, making it a haven for watersports. Inland, the
region has an abundance of archaeological sites, with picturesque countryside and excellent sea views.
Municipality of Kallithea. Stretching the length of Faliraki beach, the region has numerous
churches which are well worth visiting, but what really attracts the crowds are the beaches, the hotels,
entertainment and Italianate spas. Kallithea Bay is home of the Italian spa complex and exotic vegetation,
while Traganou beach exhibits impressive rock caves.
Municipality of Petaloudes - The region comprises numerous villages, communities and valleys.
Although very much a rural area, tourism to the municipality is starting to grow. There are many
attractions here from Byzantine monasteries and churches to unique fl ora and fauna. The villages are
also very welcoming, and locals and tourists mix in the traditional village tavernas. Key attraction is the
Petaloudes (“Butterfl ies”) Valley, an area of natural beauty famous for its panaxia quadripunctaria butterfl ies.
Municipality of Afandou - Combining the villages of Afandou, Kolymbia and Archipoli, this is a very traditional region where locals still retain their customs and simple
manners. It has plenty to off er to visitors, especially outdoor pursuits. Main attraction is a 18-hole golf course, close to Afandou beach, that is open year round. Little Afandou
train, great for families, makes the circuit round all the interesting sights in the region, including the beach at Afandou Bay.
Municipality of Kamiros - This is one of the most important regions of Rhodes, with numerous historical sites and areas of natural beauty. The ruins of the ancient city
of Kamiros were discovered in the 19th century and are still open today for visitors to see. There are many monasteries throughout the region. Salakos, a traditional village at
the foot of Profi tis Ilias, is known for its picturesque countryside and natural springs and is ideal for walkers. The Church of Agios Nikolaos is one of the most beautiful and
esteemed Byzantine churches in the Mediterranean region.
Municipality of Archagelos- Probably one of the most traditional regions of Rhodes, the municipality of Archangelos still retains its particular character. While the
region has hotels for visitors, they are family run aff airs, rather than the larger hotels found on the rest of the island. Natural beauty is unmatched combining a beautiful valley
H V S H O D G E S W A R D E L L I O T T 4 3
{ m a rk e t o v e rv i e w }
with clear springs and enormous plane and pine trees, and small picturesque
harbours. There is also much evidence of arts and crafts since pottery and
hand-made tapestries are still practised.
Municipality of Ataviros - Mt. Ataviros is the highest mountain on
Rhodes, overlooking the other nine villages that make up this region.
The area is a combination of mountainsides covered with vineyards and
villages, rugged coastline and isolated beaches. The stunning ruins of the
Medieval castle of Kritinia, and the castle of Monolithos are a few remnants
of past glory.
Municipality of Lindos - Combining several picturesque villages, this
region is steeped in history with the main point of interest being the huge
Acropolis. Built on a steep rock 116 metres high, the Acropolis overlooks
the town of Lindos, which it has protected since the 4th century. Lindos is an
attractive town with unique architectural style of pretty houses, magnifi cent
fl ower fi lled courtyards and narrow streets with tavernas, shops and
restaurants.
Municipality of Southern Rhodes - Rhodes’ largest region, Southern
Rhodes is made up of 12 villages and is very diff erent from the rest of the
island. Most of the villages date back to medieval times and have retained
their unique character. Apolakia Dam, an important development on this
part of the island, has been built to create a natural reserve and is home to a
variety of unusual plant and bird life.

SERVICE OFFERING AND BUSINESS MIX
The hotel is largely aimed at the leisure package and convention markets.
HOTEL PACKAGES TOURISM
The most prevalent tourism type worldwide and in particular in Rhodes, hotel packages address the annual vacation
needs of families, couples and friends’/relatives’ companies. The size of the hotel, as well as its off erings across lodging,
dining and entertaining can make it suitable for the variety of ages and interests of this group.
CONVENTION TOURISM
The Island of Rhodes is a top-of-mind conference destination in the wider Mediterranean and South Eastern European
region, due to the overall proposition of the Island, its mild weather conditions, location, natural beauty, as well as the recent
investments in large-scale convention facilities. Attracting convention tourism is a key marketing strategy for the hotel that can
allow for extension of the regular “annual season” before April and beyond October. Proximity to the two largest conference
centers of the island (and most fully equipped in the Mediterranean sea) of total capacity around 8,000 people makes the
universe of National or International Conference-related partnerships endless.
Tour Operators consistently make up the largest proportion of business, with Groups/Incentives (corporate events)
second. Under Grecotel Management, the focus was primarily on tour operator business. Hilton have increased the emphasis
on the group and incentive segment.

HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE
The Hilton Rhodes Hotel has been operating fully since 1994. During the period 1994 – 2004 the hotel has been managed by two specialised operators, namely Grecotel
S.A. (1994-2000) and Hilton International (2001-2004). The fi nancial performance of the hotel has been following a mixed trend, steadily improving in the fi rst half of the
period, – peaking in 1999 – and presenting moderate results henceforth.
Factors contributing, among others, to recent results can be attributed to the 11 September 2001 terrorist attack in the U.S., which severely aff ected global tourism, the
war in Iraq, the tardy implementation of a strategic plan from the Greek Ministry of Tourism, the economic slowdown on both sides of the Atlantic and the European Tour
Operators status.
The table below summarily presents the key fi nancial indicators of the Hilton Rhodes Hotel for the period 1994-2004

PERFORMANCE POTENTIAL
The management of Ionian Hotel Enterprises S.A. has identifi ed
numerous factors which should contribute to a substantial improvement
of the hotel’s fi nancial performance:
• Increase cost effi ciency and achieve improved cost/income ratios,
in alignment with those of comparable hotels, and particularly
with regard to personnel costs.
• Establish relationships with local operators and improve
relationships with current partners.
• Develop new partners in the local market in order to increase
exposure internally, and enhance domestic tourism.
• Target other distribution channels’ untapped potential, in order to
shift the business mix toward more lucrative customers.
• Place emphasis on recurring business.
• Extend the operating period through the off ering of specialty
tourism and selective targeting of customers.
• Refurbish rooms, the health club and upgrade restaurants, so as
to maintain a market leading position in terms of facilities as a
premium hotel of 5-star status.

BASIS OF SALEThe hotel is off ered for sale by Ionian Hotel Enterprises.
The contemplated sale can be eff ected via the two alternative structures
presented below:
1. Asset Sale: the most straightforward route*.
2. Company Sale: more complicated and potentially time consuming
structure where:
Either,
a. Ionian Hotel Enterprises spins off the business unit of Hilton Rhodes
Hotel to a 100% subsidiary of the company (no taxes incurred).
Subsequently, it sells the shares of the non-listed subsidiary company
to the Selected Investor and incur a tax on the transfer of non-listed
shares (approx. 5%) calculated on the value of the transaction.
Or,
b. Ionian Hotel Enterprises spins off the business unit of Hilton Rhodes
Hotel to a company indicated by the selected investor. Subsequently,
it will receive shares equal to the book value of the transferred assets,
and can transfer sell these to the Selected Investor, incurring a tax on
the transfer of non-listed shares (approx. 5%) calculated on the value
of the transaction.
* the purchaser will incur an asset transfer tax of 11%
