Now a year-round resort destination for Middle East visitors, Switzerland’s famous Beau-Rivage Palace is ensuring that those visiting Europe during the Holy month of Ramadan can observe the tradition of fasting and enjoy the holiday’s festive atmosphere while abroad.
Discreet and beautifully located in its own picturesque grounds on the shores of Lake Geneva, the hotel is the ideal base for those planning short business or leisure trips to Europe and is geared to catering specifically for Middle East guests.
During the Ramadan period, visitors can take advantage of special two-night packages offering accommodation for two in a superior lake view room at CHF 695,- (approx. US $550) per person per night.
The price includes Iftar buffet, fruits and flowers in the room, a gastronomic diner in the hotel’s La Rotonde French restaurant, and complimentary tickets to Lausanne’s fascinating Olympic Museum. For those keen to enjoy an extended break, additional nights start at CHF 630 (approx.US$500) per night for double rooms.
Azouz Mazrouki, the hotel’s Middle East consultant said: “The hotel has a tradition for attracting Middle East visitors going back many years, and we’re very much aware that visitors from that region have special requirements. We have many years experience in meeting them.”
Middle East guests spending Ramadan breaks at the hotel can start their visit in style by reserving one of the hotel’s chauffeur-driven limousines to whisk them away from Geneva International Airport on a 40-minute drive to the hotel.
“We have an impressive line-up of restaurants, as well as our own spa offering a range of health and beauty treatments,” said Masrouki.
Just a short stroll away through the hotel grounds, the Olympic Museum presents visitors with an intriguing insight in the Olympic movement, and a stunning look back over some of the most memorable Olympic performances down the years.
