Oriens Travel and Hotel Management Corp. and Hotel PURE reported that it has added five Green certified hotels in Costa Rica to its Hotel PURE portfolio. Following the addition of a new eco-friendly brand, Hotel PURE GREEN, which debuted on August 20, 2008, the company has added five new hotels, which are GREEN certified or participated in the government of Costa Rica's Certification for Sustainable Tourism (CST), to its Hotel PURE offerings. Travelers traveling to Costa Rica who wish to stay in these special eco-friendly hotels can now book these beautiful hotels through the Hotel PURE (www.HotelPURE.com) website under the Green Hotels section. Room rates for these hotels will remain affordable, ranging from $48-$92 per night. With the recent migration of a large number of vacation tourists from the Caribbean to Central America looking for natural wonders other than the beach and sun, the government of Costa Rica is forecasting a 20% increase of tourists in 2008--from 1.9 million visitors last year to 2.4 million visitors in 2008. This is evidenced by the increase of flights by major airlines flying into San Jose and Liberia, Costa Rica, amid decreases of flights into the Caribbean countries and Mexico.

Oriens Travel and Hotel Management Corp. has completed Online Credit Card processing integration for its Hotel PURE booking engine. After months of due diligence by the bank, Oriens has received approval from Banco Nacional to process online Credit Card transactions for all hotels represented under the Hotel PURE brand.
