Both of these brands will emphasize cleanliness coupled with a warm/homey atmosphere, exceptional personal service by staff, and to include a free breakfast together with very affordable nightly room rates. The new brands target eco-travelers looking to enjoy the natural wonders of Costa Rica without the hefty price tags of staying at hotel properties such as Sheraton, Marriott and the Intercontinental to name several 4 & 5 star rated hotel properties. Oriens operated hotels features will be: to provide affordable, clean, comfortable accommodations to travelers at a significant discount to these better recognized brands.
The initial deployment of Hotel PURE properties in Costa Rica has been integrated to the corporate website at www.128trip.com and can be found by clicking on the "Hotels" link, under the Hotel PURE section, or by visiting the following link:

Oriens has now completed agreements with several tour operators in Costa Rica and travelers who stay with all Hotel Pure properties will be able to access a large selection of local tours packages, at discounted prices, at the front desk or tour desk in the Hotel PURE locations. Tour details will also be implemented at www.128trip.com shortly.
Ken Chua, President and CEO of Oriens comments, "Adding these two brands was a feature of our business plan commencing in the third quarter of 2008, but due to the number of requests from Costa Rica Hotel operators, the implementation of the new processes has had to be put into our current operations. Again, this is the direct results of the extensive work by our Costa Rican operating team. From the progress thus far, we believe 2008 will be a tremendous year for the company. I would take this opportunity to wish our shareholders and clients alike, a Happy Holiday season and assure them we can certainly look forward to a bright 2008."
