Whilst preparing for the much anticipated visit of the Miss France contestants to Sri Lanka in little over a month’s time, Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts took great pleasure in congratulating the reigning Miss France of 2012/2013 Marine Lorphelin on her recent win as the First Runner-Up of the Miss World pageant held in Indonesia, and looks forward to welcoming her to the country, when she accompanies the 33 finalists of Miss France 2014.

“We are honoured and privileged to host the runner up of Miss World at our hotels and are indeed delighted that we can indulge her in hospitality at its best, at Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts,” said Dileep Mudadeniya, Head of Branding, Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts. The tour for the Miss France finalists will include stays at the tastefully-appointed Cinnamon Lodge Habarana and Cinnamon Bey Beruwala resorts from 16-22 November. At Cinnamon Lodge Habarana, being at the epicentre of the cultural triangle and wildlife parks, the contingent will experience rich cultural diversity and wildlife, whilst Cinnamon Bey Beruwala will present to them a most relaxed holiday on the golden beaches of the coastal belt, giving them true indulgence with sun, sea and sand. It will be televised live through TF1 to millions of enthusiastic global viewers. Marine Lorphelin, as the reigning Miss. France and Runner-Up of Miss World 2013, will also play ambassador for the host resorts, creating a following in the French market and much potential for tourism growth in Sri Lanka as a result of her visit. Whilst indulging in this golden opportunity to host the most popular and sought-after personality of the French nation, Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts also looks forward to extending its hospitality to Miss France 2014 the following year, when she returns to Sri Lanka as Brand Ambassador for the resort chain upon her selection.
