MAKE IDEAS HAPPEN

Great minds can change the world, and we have plenty at Swissotel. People whose ideas, initiatives and innovations have generated a positive impact on the planet and people around us.

Peru’s first carbon-neutral hotel
Swissotel Lima has quantified, reduced and compensated its carbon footprint to become the first and only carbon-neutral hotel in Peru as of December 2019. Regional Manager of Swissotel Lima, Frank Spielvogel, explains, “We focus on what we can do in our own country to contribute to our shared environment as well as drive sustainability standards - key passions and focus of our global Swissotel brand”.

Connecting families with the community in Sochi
We want people to live life well. In October 2019, Swissotel Resort Sochi Kamelia launched the Creative Family Masterclass to bring families together and improve community and connection. Together with local artists, children created textile pumpkins and coffee cats.

Making life brighter for everyone in Kolkata
We want to craft meaningful experiences for everyone who comes to stay and work with us. Swissotel Kolkata’s 95.9% colleague engagement score in 2018 is a testament to this. As are the celebration wall, playful décor and food festivals in the canteen-all designed to make work-life more fun.

Supporting people to live life well
Our partnership with SOS Children’s Villages has helped to support countless children around the world throughout their journey. And our help extends beyond childhood. The first SOS Children’s Villages child we helped is now working at Swissotel Chicago.
