Baku, August 14 (AZERTAC). Six five-star hotels corresponding to world standards will be commissioned in Baku by the end of 2011, said chief of the Azerbaijan Tourism Association Nahid Baghirov.
“A number of countries to take part in Eurovision-2012 have already applied for booking places in Baku hotels for April 2012. I think that beginning from September 2012, the rest member-states of the contest will start a more active reservation of places at the hotels of the Azerbaijani capital city”, Baghirov said.
He said by the end of 2012 it will be possible to predict how many places in hotels are necessary for placement of participants and guests of the European song contest.
“With respect to opening of new tourism facilities, there must be no problems with placement of all participants and guests of Eurovision contest at the hotels of the capital city. Additional measures will be taken in case of problems for the citizens of foreign countries to get maximum enjoyment and positive emotions from their staying in Baku”, said the chief head of the Azerbaijan Tourism Association.
