All you need is love

All you need is love 2020

 

Promotions for next 2020 Valentine's Day. At Elba Hotels we launched the “All you need is love” campaign with great discounts.

 

Only one month left for Valentine's Day! This holiday is known worldwide as the day of the year in which love is declared. Its origin dates back to the third century, during the reign of Emperor Claudius II. He decided to ban marriages among young people because he considered that single soldiers worked better when not having emotional bonds. However, a priest named Valentin considered this an injustice and secretly celebrated marriages between young lovers. When Claudio II found out, he sentenced him to death on February 14, 270. For this reason, this date is commemorated as Valentine's Day every year.

If you were one of those who Valentine’s Day seemed too cloying, do you see this date now with a new meaning? Read on to discover the best ideas to celebrate Valentine's Day… while traveling!

 

Enjoy the best Valentine's getaway

Meet Emma Ángela González, waitress at Elba Hotels

Meet Emma González, waitress at Elba Hotels

 

Today we share with you the story of one of our employees about her life and her work with us. They make everything possible.

 

Next June, Emma, a waitress at Elba Castillo San Jorge, will not only turn 20 as an employee of Elba Hotels, but also as a member of our big family. Our partner began with us almost by chance: “One day I came to have a drink at ‘La Barca’ and they offered me to work at the hotel”.

Her great experience as an employee is evident in every detail, since her main priority is "to make the customers who visit us happy, making them enjoy the time they spend with us to the fullest." And it doesn't surprise us because the attention she provides to our guests is extraordinary.

When we ask her what she likes most about her daily life at Elba Castillo San Jorge, Emma doesn't hesitate for a second: “The best thing is direct contact with customers, seeing that they feel comfortable and have a good time with us and, above all, see familiar faces return to the hotel every year”.
