"As a group, we are excited about this new relationship we have entered into with Strauss & Co, one of the country's leading names in the field of art,” said Andrew Widegger, CEO of the City Lodge Hotel Group. “Our aim is to stimulate interest in and knowledge of art which is a great vehicle for promoting cultural diversity and stimulating expression. We also see this as an excellent opportunity to showcase our hotels to the art community.”
