Kempinski Hotels and The Stafford London Terminate Management Agreement
August 25, 2014 - Kempinski Hotels and The Stafford Hotel Ltd. have announced that they have mutually and amicably agreed to end the management agreement for The Stafford London by Kempinski.
Reservations for the property can continue to be made via Kempinski's sales channels until 10th September, 2014.
