Now Accepting Reservations: Taormina’s Legendary San Domenico Palace Enters a New Era, Reopening as a Four Seasons Hotel this Summer

TAORMINA, Italy, March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Perched high above the deep blue waters of the Ionian Sea and in the magnetic presence of Mount Etna, one of Europe’s most storied hotels will soon be reborn as San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four…

«This is truly a jewel in our crown of historic properties throughout the Mediterranean region, and the perfect complement to our beloved Four Seasons hotels in Milan and Florence,» says Simon Casson, President, Hotel Operations – Europe, Middle East and Africa. «San Domenico Palace is a legend in European hospitality, and it is our honour to welcome the hotel into our portfolio on the occasion of its 125th anniversary.»

Returning to his home country from his most recent Four Seasons assignments in Dubai and a round-the-world career in luxury hospitality, General Manager Lorenzo Maraviglia leads a dedicated team that is writing a new chapter in the history of San Domenico Palace. «We are delighted to reopen in summer, Taormina’s high season, so that we can welcome our guests for a uniquely Sicilian holiday experience. Taormina’s landmarks are at our doorstep, and the ancient Greek Theatre is a stroll away as are countless other historic sites to discover, endless countryside for scenic hikes, and the siren call of Isola Bella and the Grotta Azzura – part of an exclusive yacht excursion that is just one of the bespoke experiences we are planning for our guests.»

Built on the site of a 14th century Dominican convent, the San Domenico Hotel first came to life in 1896 with the addition of a new building in Italian Liberty style (today’s Grand Hotel Wing) adjacent to accommodations converted from former quarters in the Ancient Convent Wing. It soon became a highlight on the Grand Tour, favoured by royalty and nobility and increasingly, a colourful cast of artists, writers and Hollywood stars. Set amid lush Italian gardens with sweeping sea views, the Hotel pairs contemporary art with antiquities and architectural relics throughout. Intimate at just 111 guest rooms and suites (some with private terraces and plunge pools), the Hotel also boasts a spa and gym, and an infinity pool terrace.

The culinary team is led by Sicilian-born Executive Chef Massimo Mantarro, whose signature style is showcased at the award-winning Principe Cerami. Etna’s rich terroir is the inspiration for a memorable culinary journey enhanced by Sicilian wines here and at the additional dining options, including Anciovi, a fabulous poolside restaurant, and Rosso, the all-day-dining venue with a spectacular terrace.

More than 1,700 square metres (18,300 square feet) of beautiful indoor-outdoor event spaces invite both corporate retreats and social gatherings, and wedding couples will love the opportunity to exchange vows in this historic setting.

Be among the first to experience a new chapter in the storied history of San Domenico Palace: In celebration of its reopening this summer, San Domenico Palace is extending an Introductory Offer that includes 20 percent savings on the room rate and breakfast for two with a minimum two night stay through November 2021. To make a reservation, book online or call +39 0942 613111.

Wedding couples, event hosts and meeting planners are invited to contact catering.sdh@fourseasons.com to inquire about event facilities and arrange virtual site tours.

Four Seasons in Italy

Joining two sister properties in Milan and Florence, San Domenico Palace is the latest historic property to be reborn as a Four Seasons experience. Four Seasons Hotel Milano is a chic urban sanctuary built on centuries of history in the Fashion District, while Four Seasons Hotel Firenze is a Renaissance palazzo boasting the city’s largest private garden.

For a modern-day Italian Grand Tour, Four Seasons is currently offering From Italy with Love, where guests receive a EUR 85 credit for spa or food and beverage with a minimum of two nights each in two Four Seasons hotels in in the collection (four consecutive nights).

accesso® Broadens Partnership with Alterra Mountain Company to Deliver Contactless Mobile F&B Capabilities

ORLANDO, Fla., March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to leisure, entertainment and cultural markets, has expanded its partnership with Alterra Mountain Company to provide six of the company’s North American mountain destinations – Snowshoe Mountain Resort in West Virginia; Deer Valley Resort in Utah; Mammoth Mountain in California; Steamboat in Colorado; Squaw Valley Alpine Meadows in California; and, Blue Mountain Resort in Ontario, Canada – with mobile food and beverage (F&B) technology.

Alterra Mountain Company currently leverages accesso‘s guest experience management technology, The Experience Engine™ (TE2), to power the app for its global season pass, Ikon Pass. The new and enhanced integration of technology enables more than 40 food and beverage service locations across six ski areas to provide guests access to mobile ordering and restaurant arrival time booking functionality. This augmented use of the TE2 solution also extends Alterra Mountain Company’s ability to establish guest profiles through a centralized guest identity and stored wallet feature and linking of mobile F&B purchases and restaurant arrival bookings.

The flexible operating model offered by accesso’s guest experience management platform provides operators a variety of ways to cater to guests’ mobile F&B needs. Guests have the power to curate the dining experience they desire, with easy access to dining information and menu specifics that they can explore at their own pace. Once they decide on their restaurant, they can book an arrival time or go straight to ordering their food. When ordering, guests can customize their selections, claim special offers customized for them and choose their preferred method of pickup or delivery order fulfillment – all through the Ikon Pass mobile app or a separate, standalone web portal. The multichannel availability of mobile F&B ordering with the TE2 solution eliminates any limitations on guests based on technology access, allowing them to order food from anywhere, at any time and with any device. Finally, the platform’s Kitchen Order Management System enables orders to be managed and delivered quickly and efficiently supporting an array of operating procedures.

«Over the last two years, we’ve seen the power of Accesso technology through our collaboration on the Ikon Pass app, which has enabled us to help provide our guests with new technologies that offer convenience and a seamless experience,» said Ellen Lee, senior vice president of digital marketing and experience, Alterra Mountain Company.

accesso’s food and beverage solution is designed to greatly streamline operations, providing staff access to the ordering system via traditional printers, mobile tablets and more. And, for seated dining areas, operators can offer same-day bookings or advance reservations, allowing for greater, more accurate capacity control, which is key for safety and security of guests and staff alike in the age of physical distancing. Additionally, operators benefit from the ability to craft data-driven, revenue-boosting up-sell and cross-sell opportunities that match the preferences of each unique guest, ensuring that offers are delivered at the right time and to the right person.

«We’re very proud to expand our partnership with Alterra Mountain Company – a forward-thinking leader in its industry – and look forward to working together to redefine F&B operations at several of its North American properties,» said Steve Brown, accesso CEO. «Today, harnessing the power of contactless technology is more important than ever. We appreciate the opportunity to support Alterra Mountain Company as it works to provide a convenient and unforgettable experience for its guests, while creating new opportunities for revenue generation in the process.»

Marriott International to Provide Associates Financial Award for COVID-19 Vaccination

BETHESDA, Md., March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Marriott International, Inc. (NASDAQ: MAR) today announced it has created the Vaccination Care Program, which will provide a financial award to U.S. and Canadian associates at its managed properties who get vaccinated for COVID-19. Employees will receive the equivalent of four hours of pay upon completion of the vaccination.

<a…

Marriott International supports global vaccination efforts to help bring the devastating COVID-19 pandemic under control. To encourage our associates to get vaccinated, we are also providing education on the benefits of vaccination and directing leaders to allow for schedule flexibility for vaccination appointments. Although the company is strongly encouraging associates get vaccinated, vaccination is not mandated.

«The health and safety of our people is our top priority. Our goal for the Vaccination Care Program is to remove potential obstacles to getting vaccinated so our associates can put their health first and have peace of mind,» said Dr. David Rodriguez, Global Chief Human Resources Officer, Marriott International. «Marriott International is confident that vaccination is a key measure, along with mask wearing, social distancing and stepped-up cleanliness protocols and hygiene practices in minimizing the spread of COVID-19. As vaccines become more widely available, this will create a safer environment for all associates, and we believe that consumer confidence to travel again will increase significantly and help the rebound of the travel and tourism sector. We appreciate the support from our managed hotel owners, and encourage the industry and our franchisees to offer flexibility and incentives to their associates as a vital step in our industry’s recovery.»

In April 2020, to elevate its cleanliness standards and hospitality norms and behaviors to meet the new health and safety challenges presented by the current pandemic environment, Marriott International created the Marriott Global Cleanliness Council to tackle the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic at the hotel level and further advance the company’s efforts in this area. The Marriott Global Cleanliness Council is focused on developing the next level of global hospitality cleanliness standards, norms and behaviors that are designed to minimize risk and enhance safety for consumers and Marriott associates alike.

Marriott International sees the broad distribution and adoption of vaccines—for travelers and industry employees—as key drivers of economic recovery. Recent research indicates that half of consumers in the U.S. see vaccine distribution as key to travel. For many consumers, vaccination is a gating factor to their ability to confidently get back on the road for leisure or business travel.*

Marriott has consistently been recognized for its outstanding workplace programs. For a comprehensive list, please visit Awards and Recognition.

New ‘Medical Racism’ Film Confronts Long-Standing Experimentation on Minorities

LOS ANGELES, March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s Children’s Health Defense, in conjunction with <a…

LOS ANGELES, March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s Children’s Health Defense, in conjunction with Centner Productions and the Urban Global Health Alliance (UGHA), and co-producers Rev. Tony Muhammad and author/historian Curtis Cost, today announced the release of the trailer for their upcoming documentary «Medical Racism: The New Apartheid» which premiers on March 11, 2021. The trailer is available here.

«Medical Racism» illuminates the shocking history of human experimentation targeting Blacks by government health regulators and private pharmaceutical companies. «While many Americans are familiar with the historic medical atrocities by CDC at Tuskegee, by the father of American gynecology, Dr. J. Marion Sims on South Carolina slave girls, and the continuing medical larceny against Henrietta Lacks, they are likely unaware of the routine medical barbarism against Africans that persists today,» said the film’s co-producer, Curtis Cost.

The documentary, directed by Academy Award nominee David Massey, chronicles the medical cartel’s long history of targeting minority populations for unethical experiments, the acquiescence of regulatory agencies and medical ethicists, and the silence of physicians that allow these atrocities to continue today.

According to «Medical Racism» Producer Kevin Jenkins of the UGHA, «These racially targeted experiments have been hiding in plain sight for decades. It’s time to expose the truth and end inhumane and barbaric forms of racism by the ‘respected’ medical establishment.»

The film explores recent racially-based experimentation by government health officials and pharmaceutical companies on black children in South Central Los Angeles. It also exposes Big Pharma’s medical experiments and «drug dumping» in modern day Africa and the WHO’s 2014 population control campaign to sterilize a million Kenyan girls with infertility chemicals hidden in tetanus vaccines.

«The high levels of medical mistrust in the Black community is a rational response to routine callousness and systemic savagery toward Blacks by medical professionals and pharmaceutical interests,» said CHD Chairman Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. «Our hope in producing this film is to learn from the past misdeeds, so we can avoid their future repetition.»

Producers and select film participants are available for interviews upon request. For more information and to register to receive a notification on where and how the film can be seen when it’s released, go to medicalracism.org.

Children’s Health Defense, CHD Films and CHD Chairman, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. are devoted to the health of people and our planet.

FAIR: Xavier Becerra is the Wrong Man to Head HHS as a Flood of Migrants Strains Department Resources

WASHINGTON, March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The following statement was issued by Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), in opposition to the nomination of Xavier Becerra to lead the Department of Health and Human Services:

<a…

«FAIR’s strong concerns about the fitness of Xavier Becerra to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) are clearly reflected in the Senate Finance Committee’s failure to support his nomination.

«HHS is faced with unprecedented strains on its resources as the lead federal agency tasked with dealing with the COVID crisis. The Biden administration’s reckless immigration policies have triggered another border crisis and a growing surge of people coming across our borders and multiplying demands on public health resources. Moreover, because HHS is also responsible for the care and housing of unaccompanied children entering the country illegally, the burden on agency personnel and resources will be even greater.

«Unfortunately, Becerra repeatedly demonstrated during his time in Congress and as attorney general of California that his interests rest with those of illegal aliens not the American people. In California, Becerra was among those leading the effort to divert state resources to provide publicly subsidized health care coverage to illegal aliens, even as countless other urgent needs were neglected.

«As secretary of HHS, it is almost certain that Becerra will divert much-needed assets to accommodate the needs of a growing number of illegal aliens, and away from Americans affected by the COVID pandemic.

«As such, FAIR urges the U.S. Senate to reject his nomination as HHS secretary and demand that President Biden appoint someone who will serve the needs of the American people to lead the department.»
