“The Luxury Group represented Anantara’s two Sri Lanka properties in the UK market from 2018. They had already produced excellent results for our sister hotels in Thailand so we had high hopes. it was essential for us to have experienced sales experts who knew our brand. This allowed them to connect us with the most relevant and effective UK tour operators. Claire and Renee did this extremely well for us in a very short period of time. Since opening the UK market remains the top source market for both properties in Sri Lanka.”

Champika de Silva

Minor Hotels, Area Director of Sales

I took on The Luxury Group to increase group and corporate sales in 2015. Claire immediately got involved in the business and delivered tangible and measurable results. Using her energetic approach and enthusiasm, she transformed the culture of the sales team to become significantly more productive. She brought her clients to the Bingham, introduced creative initiatives to drive new business, and helped us to build stronger relationships with our existing clients. The Luxury Group has been an important component in the success of the Bingham this year. Not only have they opened doors for us, they have focused on results-oriented sales and marketing. Claire’s relationships and knowledge of the UK market has been invaluable.”
