Solís Cambrian Hotel & Spa is delighted to announce the appointment of Ms Hannelore Tontsch as Sales Manager. In her new role, Hannelore is responsible for every aspect of the hotel’s sales (working with both leisure tour operators as well as meeting and incentive agents) and for developing marketing synergies with relevant brands. Hannelore was previously a Senior Sales Manager with the Victoria-Jungfrau Collection , a group of four five-star properties in Switzerland.
Solís Cambrian Hotel & Spa, recently named the first Mr & Mrs Smith hotel in Switzerland, opened in December 2007 following a complete refurbishment that has seen the property emerge as a relaxed but luxurious hotel, with a contemporary design focus. While touches of the early 20th century building remain, much of the hotel has been re-styled for modern living, including a gorgeous sun terrace, cosy winter garden, Restaurant Nova serving delicious northern Italian food, Scott’s bar, a spacious 750 sq m spa using 100% natural Sodashi products from Australia and two games rooms (one for younger children with soft toys, Lego and Wii, the other for teenagers with a snooker table and board games).
With only 71 rooms (including 23 suites), the hotel is able to offer excellent levels of service with a personal touch, all part of the philosophy of Horst Schulze, the ex-CEO of The Ritz-Carlton who has created the Solís brand.
Adelboden, renowned as the home of the first package ski holiday (over 100 years’ ago), has a 170km ski area, accessed via 55 lifts, with pistes to suit every level of skier, be they beginners, intermediates or off-piste experts – it even attracts the professionals, with FIS World Cup slalom events held in the resort every January. Boarders are also welcome.
Adelboden is easily accessible from the UK: during the winter season, Flybe operate flights from Southampton to Bern, which is a 40-minute road or rail journey away, and numerous airlines fly to Zurich and Geneva, from where there are easy, efficient train connections to the resort.
