Take a break break in Switzerland

A top Swiss hotel consortium is continuing its drive to attract visitors from the Middle East by launching a series of innovative packages for this season’s winter breaks.

Three, four and seven night packages at the four Seiler Hotels and the Riffelalp Resort 2222m in Zermatt, Southern Switzerland, have been created, all with an emphasis on different elements including learning to ski, gastronomy and indulging in luxurious spa treatments.
“We have created packages that will appeal to people  who have never tried a winter break before as well as those who already love to ski and we hope this will encourage record numbers of guests from the Middle East this winter,” said Martin Sonderegger, director of sales and marketing, Seiler Hotels & Riffelalp Resort 2222m.
Packages are available from the end of November to mid-April and prices for three nights start at just CHF 639 (US$ 483) while seven-night packages start $843, inclusive of a six-day ski pass and breakfast. Half board and full board options are also available.
Whether guests wish to ski or simply enjoy the splendours of the Alps from the comfort of the hotel, the new Winter Offers programme will have a package to suit.
Guests can try the Three Kings package which offers a six-day ski pass and accommodation at the Hotel Nicoletta with breakfast and a four course dinner daily from $1,187 per person. This package also includes a Three Kings cake served in the room, one massage and free use of swimming pool, sauna, steam room and whirlpool.
Food loving guests can try the seven-night Ski and Gastronomie Safari at the Hotel Schweizerhof from $1,550 per person including accommodation, ski hire, ski pass, daily afternoon tea, welcome drinks with the hotel team and a nightly dinner in one of the 12 Seiler Hotels restaurants around the town.
