In mid-January Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts added a new hotel in the Middle East to its portfolio: The exclusive Mövenpick Hotel Bahrain, which is located directly at the international airport and is aimed first and foremost at a clientele of discerning business travellers.
As the only hotel on the island of Muharraq and a mere 10 minutes from the city centre of the capital Manama the latest Mövenpick Hotel offers a unique blend of Swiss hospitality and traditional Arabian atmosphere. 106 rooms including 10 suites – from deluxe and superior rooms to elegant executive suites and the spacious Ambassador Suite – feature every possible comfort, welcoming the international clientele to the Kingdom of Bahrain. Guests at the Hotel also benefit from a special service that is now an essential part of modern communications. Indeed the new Mövenpick Hotel is the only hotel in Bahrain to offer high-speed Wireless LAN, for fast cable-free Internet access in all the Hotel’s public areas and rooms.
The culinary variety of Mövenpick cuisine is characterised by its international choice, creativity and top quality. The Hotel’s restaurants offer appetising antipasti and theme-based buffets, fish specialities, family brunch, a generous breakfast buffet and à la carte dishes, not to mention seasonal specialities. While the speciality restaurant Silk's serves Asian Pacific cuisine and pasta, pizza and Tandoori dishes, the Flamingo Bar and Lounge with its live music is particularly popular with wine connoisseurs. The vast culinary choice is further complemented by a range of light snacks, afternoon tea and Mövenpick ice cream served in the Gallery lobby restaurant, whose pleasant surroundings and atmosphere make it a favourite meeting place.
A special conference and meeting department looks after the needs of organisers of meetings, seminars and banquets, with a guarantee of high standards and the very best service for all events. The infrastructure of the conference premises is as crucial as the competence and know-how. The technical facilities available range from beamers to Internet connections, from Wireless LAN to ISDN and video conferencing, with a technical service team on hand at all times.
“Of course the Hotel is ideal not just for business executives but also for holidaymakers,” says Frank Reichenbach, General Manager of the new Mövenpick Hotel Bahrain. “We have one of the largest free-form swimming pools in Bahrain, 570 m² in size, ideal for relaxing. And the leisure amenities also include our modern fitness centre and the two tennis courts.”
Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts currently enjoys international representation with 49 hotels in 16 countries, and its two hotel types, the business and conference hotel and the holiday resort, are completely oriented to the specific needs of our guests. While the business hotels are located near cities or airports and provide an optimum infra-structure for the business traveller, the holiday resorts are located at unusual sites: at present the hotel group is represented in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, Morocco, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates and in Lebanon. 14 more projects are under development or in the process of construction.
