Hotel Schweizerhof Bern in Bern, Switzerland, has debuted 5,382 sq ft (500 sq m) of spa facilities in a space that used to house the jazz club Jaylin’s.
The new spa features five treatment rooms, a Finnish sauna, a hammam, a pamper pool with whirlpool, multi-sensory showers and a gym. The spa has teamed with cosmetics brand Sothys Paris for products and treatments, which are available at prices ranging from US$65 to US$316 (60 Swiss francs to 290 Swiss francs).
Interior design elements by London-based MKV Design include charcoal-gray Nero Assoluto natural stone in its polished and rough form as well as dark oak wood, both also used in the hotel’s 99 rooms and suites. The space also features the metallic textured wallcovering “Charisma” by German designer Ulf Moritz.
“Our target clientele appreciates the amenities of a wellness area,” said General Manager Michael Thomann. “Even within the business sector, a spa can represent an important criterion.”
