Red Lion Hotels Offers Risk Free Meetings With Zero Attrition to Planners Through 2012

SPOKANE, Wash., March 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Lion Hotels Corporation (NYSE: RLH) announced today it is suspending its attrition clause for new meeting, convention and group business booked and consumed through the end of the year.

"We want to show meeting planners that Red Lion Hotels is committed to making their meetings more profitable and successful, and less stressful," says Stacie Harper, Vice President of Sales for Red Lion Hotels Corporation. "We are all in this together."

The "No Attrition" offer to meeting planners runs through December 31, 2012, for any new business booked and consumed between now and the end of the year at participating Red Lion Hotels.

The sales team at Red Lion Hotels developed the idea following a feedback session with meeting planners, where they described the pressures associated with an attrition clause as one of their biggest concerns.

"Eliminating the attrition clause makes sense for our customers," says Harper.  "It is a matter of recognizing the meeting planners' needs and addressing them head on."
