InterContinental Crete
InterContinental · IHG Hotels & Resorts
Who runs this hotel?
Three different companies can sit behind one hotel. How this works
- OperatorThe company responsible for the hotel's day-to-day operations — hiring and training staff, service, food and beverage, housekeeping and revenue management. It can be different from both the owner and the brand.
- Y&T Daskalantonakis Knossian Group →
- BrandThe name on the door. The brand company sets standards and supplies the reservation system and loyalty programme — but it does not always run the hotel itself.
- InterContinental → · IHG Hotels & Resorts
Not the brand company — InterContinental supplies the name; Y&T Daskalantonakis Knossian Group runs the hotel.
