Ftan, Switzerland – 13 September 2017 –
Its proven, stylish luxury of privacy, tranquillity and enjoyment is the foundation for the club “Il Paradis” of the same name. Later on, he will be hiring himself in Hotel Paradies in the most gorgeous times of the year. This is the first time that a version that has successfully established itself in the USA and the UK has gained a foothold in Switzerland. The principle is simple: Club members secure themselves with their accession inspiring vacation moments in their dearly loved “heaven” and stick from now on in this particular piece of jewellery entirely among themselves – entirely exclusive. The innovative club concept is going to be launched in December 2017, and should you would like to breathe club atmosphere, a “Paradise All-inclusive” is advised. In this manner, guests get to understand each of the advantages of club membership.
Constantly returning to a new paradise and feeling in the home – that is possible at Hotel Paradies thanks to another club idea. The amount of members in the club “Il Paradis” is deliberately confined to 200 memberships for two individuals each and thus guarantees a private atmosphere during the stay in this gem in the Lower Engadine. From today on, cosmopolitan men and women who appreciate natural prestige and discreet luxury at the typical high level will meet here.
“Together with their membership at the bar, members will be able to enjoy a durable and enjoyable stay in’ Paradise’, which they will love and love thanks to its unique location, unmistakable hospitality and style,” says Horst Rahe, a renowned pioneer in the hotel business and proprietor of the hotel. In addition to the Members Club – where you can purchase a membership for three years – there’s also the option to join the Owners Club and thus secure a suite in the home. The owner family of Horst Rahe wants to assign 16 stocks, but a distinct joint-stock company is founded. This will give interested parties the chance to secure a piece of the historical house (built by the artist bunch Beyer out of Basel in 1910). These partners will consequently be associated with Paradise at the long term.

Additionally, they spend in a yearly fee of between CHF 8,500 and CHF 13,000, which can be credited to them in the form of days of remain – like food, lodging and all regional experiences. The motto is: during the “Paradise” breaks, club members will no longer need to be worried about the price of consumption and actions, as they’re all already contained in the yearly membership fee. They can simply be like uncomplicatedly, unwind à discretion – as well as store utensils like bag, skis or other equipment on site in order that every thing is prepared when they return to their own next home. They do attempt and tested things even better: a highly motivated team round the seasoned hostess Meike Bambach and also deputy manager Stephan Schmitz fulfils individual wishes, whilst fighter Daniel Stütz spoils the club members with all the best that the region has to offer. Speaking of this area: Guests and vacation home owners in the area and from the valley have the chance to buy a day membership. With an annual fee of CHF 2,000, they’re a part of the bar, on all occasions and trips, and can use the whole infrastructure such as the health area, library and, obviously, the terrific terrace.
Official club launch in December 2017 From December 22, 2017, members will have the ability to attend the club live performance, when the club “Il Paradis” will be performing in the “Paradise” for about six months at the most beautiful times of the year. “Half of those memberships have already been signed by regulars.
