Historic Hotels in Switzerland: Wenn Amateure zu Hoteliers were – News

Historic Hotels in Switzerland: Wenn Amateure zu Hoteliers were – News

De Zeit is stehen geblieben: In der Gaststube stehen Aschenbecher auf den Tischen, de Küche is grim veraltet, de Bettwäsche aus dem letzten Jahrhundert. If you are aware of the fact that the guests are abjourned first, this is the case. But the Hotel Schwendi in the Bernese Oberland will soon last 20 years. The elaboration and the construction substance are a grim translation.

The old Hotel Schwendi

A house from another time: That new self-esteem does not apply. I am Gegentil. Barbara and Martin Künzi are the charm of the small guesthouses. The Thuner Ehepaar has purchased the Hotel in the Community Schattenhalb im Haslital for two years. It has been a long time since you have been in the house for a bicycle tour.

Now they want to start a joint project – as a Querein scaffolding. Martin Künzi is a market strategy and a firm, Barbara Künzi works as a speech therapist. “Get a project project,” said the 51-year-old. “A hotel project that is not caused by a trauma – that will be a problem.” The house is old, but the renovation is worth money. “We do not have old dreams,” said the 52-year-old hotel owner. “We have no fear – but respect. And that is so.”

But it is not easy. It is clear that the Kauf is doing well. In Spring Summer 2023, Künzis will clean the house with a Fachmann and attach the Wasserversorgung. Hold a long clamp at the head. If a brown Brühe has come out of the Leitung, while the time of the Decke has been disrupted, the Leitungen are defective.

Before a year can be held for a while.

If the plan of the redevelopment is implemented, it is difficult. The Künzi glove must be used in the planning phase of the architectural team. Zudem is with the Baubewilligung-compliziert. “If the project is no longer focused, the war is difficult,” says Barbara Künzi. “For a year we had a hanging hanger – that was a lot of energy.”

When the energy knock is

Mittlerweile wurde de Baugesuch voor de Sanierung bei de Behörden eingereicht, de Bewilligung ist aber noch nicht da. That is confirmed; visible more Monate.

Trotzdem: For a couple of weeks you can stay with your health care. Jedenfalls are bisschen. With friends and relations you can spend your holiday at the hotel: Spannteppiche or Holzvertäfelungen beispielsweise.

The Pläne ended up in the Monaten after becoming Kauf. A hotel with a Zimmern soll and then apartments with different Zimmern geben. Angededed since a small kitchen or kitchen. The idea: So you should never hesitate to ask your guests and visit them – personal costs were frugal. And: Dadurch können Künzis etwas weniger Gäste tewirten, was Absicht ist.

Maximum new guests were during their night hours. If more fire protection is needed, it may be that the barrier-free operation is limited.

The Plane in front of the other Hotel Schwendi

Another hotel is a hotel – this is a herausforderung. The Schweiz hotels that offer hotels will spend their time or last longer; Schmuckstücke, die weit über de regio heraus strählen. There are a number of things in the Aktionen gerettet, such as at Hotel Giessbach am Brienzersee.

New guests in old hotels

Others are interested in winter tourism, want access to world literature or are more interested in personal experiences; This is the best choice of hotel on the Schatzalp near Davos or the Waldhotel in Sils im Engadin. Various new hotels were added in the following years. Often with Erfolg.

Vier Beispiel von Quereinsteigern and other hotels

Some historic hotels have been found in the situation that these are flawless, such as Roland Hunziker, Geschäftsführer of Swiss Historic Hotels, der Vereingung historic hotels. Die Nachfrage auf dem Markt nach solchen Unterkünften sei da – auch von Ausländischen Gästen.

There is a problem that is a big step further. “Der Betrieb eines historic Hotels brought many reforms with themselves – above all, Unterhalt and Investitionen were concerned.” The best is Vera Weber, director of the Grandhotels Giessbach Oberhalb des Brienzersees.

The Grand Hotel Giessbach above Lake Brienz was built in 1873 to 1875. It was commissioned by a Zurich hotelier family. Start with 20 years. Years of experience with the use of other components is possible, while more is used. The house fell high and low. In 1981, several attempts were made to hang it. The low monument protectors and environmental protectors on the plan.

1983, just like the Swiss Environmental Protection Agency Franz and Judith Weber, together with the Vereinigung Helvetia Nostra and the gründeten Stiftung Giessbach of the Schweizervolk, who put Giessbach-Domäne together with 22 Hektaren Grundeigentum käuflich zu erwerben and unter Denkmalschutz zu.

Das Hotel Giessbach is 150 years old – and it was a remarkable experience. “We are always in need of restoration – now we can continue to enjoy the hotel,” said Vera Weber. The Hotel has an exhibition and a steep slope, above the Brienzersees, surrounding the Giessbachfall. Dadurch is the elements that are not good. Vera Weber stands alone, that is gelingt, that Gebäude in Schuss zu halten. «Es braucht fell Engagement, Hingabe – und vor allem Leidenschaft.»

Finanziell is a power branch. The hotel management must do it itself, says Vera Weber. The Hotel Giessbach is located in an area where you can spend money and money, while your hotel is in a park, the forest is a shipyard and a historic wire ropeway. All that is needed is care – what money is used for.

Quereinsteiger brauchen nicht nur Geld

Andreas Rickly is a leader in hotels and restaurants. There is a great party, that is the corona pandemic that calls for the interest in the gastronomy sector – and the beratung in Anspruch nehmen. “We will always be able to keep it clean and then continue to work on it,” says the Berater.

My wichtigster Rat: Quereinsteiger must take care of itself.

If this is no longer the case, the only project will be in money, and an enormous amount of energy will have been lost among the stakeholders. «Erholung lies kaum drin. Ferien anyway nicht», so der Berater. This was often not done properly. «My wichtigster Rat and this Quereinsteiger: They must take care of themselves and stay healthy. It is Scheitern’s project that has been realized.”

There is a good idea on the issue of the prosperity of the promoters and the promoters. It is often about the attachment that Elan has lost; gerade, wenn Gebäude langwierig saniert became musts. “It is important to ensure that your organization manages your personal planning or business system,” says Berater Andreas Rickly.

Optimism and idealism in Haslital

I have been aware of the freshly built hotel properties of the Herausforderung. Angst vor dem Scheitern does not have its own home of the hotels in Schwendi. “We can’t get away with it,” says Martin Künzi. “There is a beautiful project that can be made by the Zeit zu Zeit gemeinsam.” If you start cleaning in winter, you need to start. Der Plan: Im Spätsommer 2025 Guest reviews. Der Weg dazu is not long. Provided that the excess is corrected.
