    Press release November 26, 2008 Double recognition for Pullman at Hospitality Awards: - Best Innovative Concept - Best Advertising Campaign The 9th annual Hospitality Awards organized by MKG Group and attended by 700 members of the international hotel industry took place on November 18. Pullman earned two prestigious awards: - one for the innovative “Get Closer” concept , - plus a second award for its “ Check-in. Chill-out” advertising campaign . Less than a year after the reinvention of the historic brand —designed to address the expectations of a clientele seeking an upscale environment with a unique blend of comfort, pleasure and modernity—these awards constitute powerful recognition from the hospitality industry. Get Closer, a truly innovative positioning in the upscale hotel segment Get Closer is the fruit of close collaboration between Accor’s operational, marketing and human resources teams in order to forge an exciting new hotel culture around the Pullman brand. This vision is translated into a reality for guests at multiple levels: - The product, with all the “basics” (rooms , lobby, etc. ) and services revisited to express this positioning. Pullman innovations include: o Table d’hôtes : Convivial “chef’s tables” where business travelers can enjoy food in a relaxed social setting. o Innovative Breaks : Breaks during meetings provide a chance for relaxation and creativity, with themed activities, tastings and special events. o A la carte Coaches: Accomplished leaders (sports, artists, business people, etc.) facilitate all or part of an event. - Human Resources, with: o Creation of a shared Human Resources model that unifies the values of the brand, management methods, staff development and energizes change.
