LAS VEGAS, Dec. 12, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Oriens Travel and Hotel Management Corp. (Other OTC:OTHM.PK – News) , a company that seeks out mid/lower-end hotel in developing countries and reorganizes them under the Hotel PURE brand , is pleased to announce the addition of the second FROL customer to its portfolio.

After Hotel Hacienda Guachipelin, a fully certified eco-friendly resort, located just 30 minutes from Costa Rica’s Liberia airport, reported great success with the addition of the online reservation tool FROL to its web site, taking real-time reservations and payments, a nearby tour operator, Adventure Tours, has also added this online reservation tool to allow its customers to book the tours in advance through its web site Guanacaste Tours

Specializing in ecotourism, Adventure Tours is one of the best One Day Tour Operators in Rincon de la Vieja Volcano National Park, Costa Rica. The Volcano is one of the most active volcanoes in Costa Rica and is located in the hottest tourist destination in the country: Guanacaste region. Costa Rica volcanoes are similar to Hawaiian volcanoes in both sceneries and activities, with constant displays of eruptions and rumbling, lava flowing, steaming vents, boiling mud and active craters. Most of these volcanoes have great and easy access, making them top attractions for all tourists.

Adventure Tours offers activities for all family members, ranging from easy recreational to extreme adventures. Activities are available from 1-hour to full One Day Tours that include nature observation, bird watching, white water rafting, canoeing, canopying and hiking. Tours on horseback are carried out from a traditional cattle hacienda where the old customs of Costa Rican haciendas are still in practice.

The reason more people are discovering this area is not only because of the new Liberia International Airport that connects directly with major U.S. cities such as Atlanta, Miami and major cities in Europe including Frankfurt, Madrid, London and other cities, it is also due to its lush tropical beaches with multi-colored sand, as well as its warm relaxing waters, impressive national parks and protected forests. All of these attractions make this area one of the most perfect vacation spots in Costa Rica.

Ken Chua, President of Oriens, stated, “With our first FROL customer, Hacienda Guachipelin in full production mode booking reservations daily and smoothly, and the addition of our second customer, we are confident our FROL engine is operating flawlessly and most important of all, it is in demand by businesses in the tourism industry looking to expand their presence on the Internet and be able to capture the sales in real time. We will continue to deploy our FROL into more hotels and tour operators’ web sites, with the outlook to 2009 forecasted at 50 new customers and an anticipated sale of $6-$9 million dollars.”

LAS VEGAS, NV – December 3, 2008 – (PRIME NEWSWIRE) – Oriens Travel and Hotel Management Corp. (OTC:OTHM) (http://www.orienscorp.com), a company that seeks out mid/lower-end hotel properties in developing countries and reorganizes them under the Hotel PURE brand, is pleased to announce the company has completed the redesign and launch of its new and improved web site, www.HotelPure.com

The new Hotel Pure Internet web site has been designed with a focus on user friendly access to information. As a result, when navigating around the new web site, the graphic experience has been greatly enhanced, along with easier navigation as the steps to complete room reservations are now simpler and more precise. Visa and MasterCard have also approved all content and a new and more robust database backend now powers the entire web site. Since the launch of the new site, the Company has seen a steady increase in daily room reservations from U.S. and European travelers. A detail financial on the revenue todate will be disclosed after December 31, 2008, the ending of our fiscal year.

Ken Chua, President of Oriens stated, “We believe that the recent economic situation has played into our hands. Six months ago, to arrange presentation meetings with hotels in Central America was nearly impossible due to their steady business and growth. Today, with the decrease of hotel room reservations and tourism slow down, hotel owners are looking for solutions to offset the losses. As a result, our Costa Rica office is receiving a significantly increased number of telephone calls inquiring about our products.”
Mr. Chua continued, “We will capitalize on this opportunity to welcome new hotels in Costa Rica joining our Hotel PURE network, as well as installing our online reservation and payment processing management engine (FROL, Friendly Reservation On Line) into each hotel’s web site for immediate use. As the economy turns around, we will be well positioned to maximize our growth potential.”

LAS VEGAS, Oct. 30, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Oriens Travel & Hotel Management Corp. (Other OTC:OTHM.PK – News), a company that seeks out mid/lower-end hotel properties in developing countries and reorganizes them under the Hotel PURE brands, is pleased to announce the company has completed its new online booking and processing engine, FROL (Friendly Reservations On Line), which aims at servicing travel related businesses in Central America and the Caribbean region.

Further to Oriens’ business model, the company has completed, designed and finalized a new and extremely robust stand alone online booking and processing engine, FROL, aimed at servicing various different travel related businesses. FROL is so robust and powerful that it can be customized to service any company that conducts business on the Internet. The potential clients for FROL include small/medium size hotels, tour operators, car rental companies, travel agents and other travel related businesses. FROL will turn these businesses’ web sites from a pure digital media into a global point of sales in just a few days after integration. As the Internet becomes more powerful on a daily basis, and more travelers turn to the Internet to book their travel needs, according to www.tia.org, almost 96 million people in the U.S. use the Internet to book their travel needs today, small/medium size online businesses need to be more competitive by capturing their customers’ purchases while they are visiting their web sites. Oriens will be there to facilitate their needs.

Ken Chua, President of Oriens stated, “FROL will play yet another important role in our revenue model going forward. Utilizing this extremely powerful online booking tools catered to the travel industry and the amount of interests received from the tourism sector in Costa Rica, we believe we will achieve sales of no less than $10 million USD in 2009 and up to $100 million USD yearly by 2011, from FROL. Currently Costa Rica receives just over $2 billion USD a year from the hotel accommodation industry and growing. Judging from these figures, we are extremely conservative with our projections and these figures do not reflect growth potential into other countries in Central America and the Caribbean.’”
