The hotel s management hopes to reopen for the winter holidays season.
The Sheraton Hotel in the Argentine beach resort of Mar del Plata Tuesday decided to shut down for two months and take advantage of a Labor Law clause that allows companies to keep their staff earning 75 per cent of their salaries in crisis such as the coronavirus pandemic.
The hotel s management hopes to reopen for the winter holidays season, it was announced. The number of employees under suspension amounts to 80, company sources added.
Although not the only hotel to take such a drastic measure, the Sheraton Mar del Plata is one of the most iconic ones of the past two decades.
