It’s that’s time of the year. AccorHotels held its annual Showcase last night with products, destinations and the chance to win a brand new $30,000 Peugeot 208 car.
This year, the keys to the vehicle went to Ina Choy from Wing On Tours.
The travel consultant won the prize at the AccorHotels Sydney Showcase at the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth last night.

Ina was one of five agents at the expo to receive a potentially winning key.
Host Melissa Doyle and Channel 7’s Larry Emdur gathered the five finalists next to the Peugeot and Ina was the second to step forward to see if her key unlocked the car door.
And it did.
The Peugeot prize was one of a whole series of accommodation and travel prizes drawn during the evening.
Other prizes awarded to lucky guests included two Qantas business class flights with accommodation for three nights at Pullman Park Lane and accommodation vouchers for properties across the region including destinations such as Manilla and New York.
Over 100 Accor delegates representing over 94 countries and nearly 3,800 hotels were on hand to discuss AccorHotel’s newest product – ranging from the new beach club at Sofitel Fiji Resort & Spa to new midscale Mercure Newcastle Airport and economy ibis Mackay Airport – with the travel industry.
Attendees were well entertained throughout the evening and a collection of Robert Oatley wines ensured that guests were fully hydrated.
Formerly known as World of Accor, AccorHotels Showcase is the largest hotel expo in Asia Pacific. This year AccorHotels Showcase entered its 12th year touring the Asia Pacific region, a milestone for the hotel exhibition series.
In 2014, over 1,000 AccorHotels delegates representing nearly 3,600 hotels and resorts worldwide attended the World of Accor series, with more than 7,000 clients in attendance.
