The Kameha Grand Zurich hotel opened in Switzerland earlier this month, surrounded by 128,000sq m (1,377,781sq ft) of forests, meadows, ponds and Zurich's Kameha Lake. It also features a Kameha Spa designed by Marcel Wanders.
The 245-key hotel is the first Autograph Collection property by Marriott in Switzerland. It was developed by real estate development company Mettler2Invest, owned by Peter Mettler. On completion it was handed over to Turintra AG, a real estate fund of Swiss bank UBS. The UBS fund is therefore the owner and lessor of the property. Kameha Grand Glattpark Betriebsgesellschaft operates the property as part of a long term lease.
A representative for the hotel told Spa Opportunities that the 300sq m (3,229sq ft) Kameha Spa features four treatment rooms, two saunas, a steamroom, relaxation room/ roof terrace, in addition to a gym. House products include Alessandro, Spa Manufaktur, La Biosthétique and Artemis.
In addition to a number of leisure activities, the hotel offers a choice of two dining options – one Italian restaurant and a Japanese outlet.
