The luxurious Tschuggen Hotel Group in Switzerland has announced special Ramadan themed packages for this summer, ideal for Arab families travelling over the holy month. Available at both the Tschuggen Grand Hotel, set in the beautiful alpine surroundings of Arosa, and at the newly refurbished Hotel Eden Roc in Ascona, the packages provide an idyllic escape from the soaring temperatures in the Middle East.
The ‘Arabian Nights’ package at Tschuggen Grand allows guests to unwind and experience complete relaxation at the iconic Tschuggen Bergoase spa facility. Designed by architect Mario Botta, the 5,000 sq. metre mountain oasis offers exquisite views even whilst indoors, as the stunning glass sails channel daylight into the serene interior.
Additionally, several rooms in the hotel are equipped with separate gender facilities, the qibla direction, room service that is respectful of Ramadan hours, as well as a private spa suite with a ladies’ only sauna. Traditional Halal food and prayer mats will be available in the hotel, and if guests prefer to be catered personally, Tschuggen Grand can arrange a private butler service and an Arabic speaker.
For those who want to take a more active approach to their stay, the package includes a free pass for the hotel’s private mountain railway. The futuristic Tschuggen Express connects the resort with the hiking areas of Arosa within 2.5 minutes.
Valid from 3 July 2015 – 20 September 2015 prices start at US$2,335 per person for a deluxe double room including four nights’ accommodation, breakfast before sunrise with halal items, a Thalesebath, free admission to the Tschuggen Bergoase, complimentary use of the Tschuggen Express and an all-inclusive card to use in Arosa, valid until September 2015.
Beautifully positioned directly on Lake Maggiore, the Hotel Eden Roc in Ascona is ideally situated for a rejuvenating stay. Inclusive of a three nights’ stay, the package includes daily suhour and iftar options, available from the comfort of guest rooms. Traditional Halal food and prayer mats will be available throughout the holy month. The package is available from CHF 1,305 ($1350) per person.
This summer, the Hotel Eden Roc will also provide a holiday opportunity for those attending the Expo Milano 2015. Located just one and a half hour’s drive from Milan, guests can stay at the hotel and drive to Milan to visit the exhibition until October.
