As a leading global sales and marketing outsourcing agency for the luxury hospitality, tourism and travel industry in the Middle East, Zurich’s city resort will be represented by the TCA team of luxury specialists across the GCC.
Nestled on the edge of the city, the Dolder Grand provides stunning views of the Alps and Lake Zurich, as well as its proximity to downtown locations for shopping, art, and entertainment. The eclectic choices for rooms and suites, unparalleled spa facilities, and restaurant selection, offers Gulf travellers an experiential stay that is both distinct and discreet.
Being a five-star deluxe hotel with over 120 years of history and being perceived as a landmark in the city of Zurich, the Dolder Grand attracts guests from all over the world. “Over the last couple of years, we have noticed a significant increase of guests staying with us that are coming from the Middle East”, Mr Markus Granelli, General Manager of the Dolder Grand, said. “The hotel is perfectly set up for guests visiting from the Gulf Countries with its luxurious and spacious rooms and suites, that are ideal for long stay, an excellent Arabic and European cuisine, a spacious 40,000 sq. ft spa with separate ladies and gentlemen spa and the proximity to one of Switzerland’s most exclusive shopping streets - Bahnhofstrasse. Due to this, we are excited to announce to have found in TCA a PR and Sales representative based in Dubai, that builds stronger bridges to this important market and segment for the Dolder Grand. We are convinced that through this long-lasting partnership we will gain visibility, market share and drive-up business”, Granelli added.
