Olympic Gold winner Viktor Ahn to represent Lotte Hotel Moscow as Brand Ambassador

The award-winning luxurious Lotte Hotel Moscow is delighted to announce the signing of world renowned Olympic Champion Viktor Ahn as the Brand Ambassador. In his new role, Viktor will represent Lotte Hotel Moscow in an advertising campaign and support the hotel in hosting events and charity programs. A contract has been signed for three years effective immediately.

Born in South Korea, Viktor Ahn now skates for Russia after falling out of favor with the South Korean short track organization due to his injuries in 2011. To keep his professional career, he chose Russia as the country he would like to continue training in. He has changed his name to Viktor because it is associated with the word “victory,” which he believed would bring him luck in the 2014 Olympic Games. Last year he won three short track golds at the Sochi Olympic Games, in addition to three gold medals claimed at the Turin Winter Games in 2006.

“Viktor Ahn is a true hero of our times. He has worked tremendously hard and impressed the whole world with his amazing success. The goal of Lotte Hotel Moscow is the same – to be the best in delivering service and comfort to our guests, to exceed their expectations and to hold first position not only in Russia but in Europe as well,”- Morten Andersen, General Manager of Lotte Hotel Moscow, said about Ahn’s new role.

The luxurious Lotte Hotel Moscow, a member of Leading Hotels of the World, situated in the very center of Moscow on Novinsky Boulevard, opened its doors in September 2010. The hotel offers 300 spacious rooms and suites, the largest Royal Suite on the continent and two decadent restaurants – the MENU restaurant, which offers progressive European cuisine, and MEGU, a modern Japanese restaurant, part of the famous New York MEGU brand.

Lotte Hotel Moscow also boasts six conference halls suitable for business banquets and events of various sizes, an innovative Club Floor, a three-level underground parking area and a state-of-the-art fitness center with a swimming pool. The world-famous Mandara Spa offers the perfect blend of ancient traditional Balinese spa rituals and the latest innovations of the Elemis and Bellefontaine cosmetic products. The hotel also offers a wide range of premier services to meet the wishes of even the most demanding guests.
