M�venpick Hotel Z�rich-Regensdorf has undergone extensive renovations in the recent months. Sporting a splendid new look, the 4-star superior business hotel is now fully geared to the needs of sophisticated business guests.

With a view to the UEFA EURO 2008, during which all referees of the tournament stayed at the hotel in Regensdorf, the renovation works were begun by upgrading all rooms. A new design concept with architectonic finesse and warm colours now makes for a feel-good atmosphere in the 150 non-smoking rooms, all of which not only have high-speed Internet access but allow guests to regulate the temperature individually. The Premium-Deluxe floor was also redesigned and is now equipped with additional amenities such as Nespresso coffee machines.

The highlight of the newly refurbished hotel is the seminar area �Meeting Place� with its harmonious colour design: nine seminar rooms equipped with state-of-the-art technology are now available with a capacity of between 2 and 120 persons. Adjacent to the seminar area, the �Meet and Relax� event room, which can be used for any type of function, is characterised by idyllic light design, lively colours and a spacious show kitchen. This new concept is based on a philosophy which is unique in the greater Zurich area. In addition to these features, the hotel�s conference facilities still feature the Convention Centre which accommodates up to 1,200 visitors. This area will be modernised in the course of 2009.

�We are very pleased that we are making such good progress with our renovation works and that we are now able to pamper our guests with passionate Swiss hospitality in a modern ambiance�, Norbert Fontana, General Manager M�venpick Hotel Z�rich-Regensdorf says. �The new premises not only give us entirely new possibilities but will also create a competitive advantage in the Z�rich region.�

Situated in an excellent location, M�venpick Hotel Z�rich-Regensdorf is close to Z�rich Airport (free shuttle service available), Messe Z�rich, as well as the Hallenstadion, and even the city centre is only a 15-minute drive away. Hotel guests can still enjoy culinary delights in the M�venpick Hotel Restaurant and delectable Italian specialities in Restaurant �Ciao�. The hotel�s range of gastronomic entertainment is completed with the �Swing Swing� hotel bar. Through a direct passage, guests can access the 3,000 sqm large wellness centre of Migros-Fitnesspark. For those who love variety in their sporty activities, there is, in addition, the local recreation area and a 6/18-hole golf course. Last but not least, a shopping centre with more than 50 retail shops is situated right next to the hotel.
