Its two 'pure' Swiss brands, however, remain under-represented. <strong>M\u00f6venpick manages six establishments and Swiss\u00f4tel one hotel.<\/strong>. The Group has recently taken the decision to <strong>close its two sites in Basel and Zurich<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Yet Switzerland remains a market with a bright future, according to <strong>Duncan O'Rourke, Accor Group Director for Northern Europe<\/strong>.  \"Switzerland is a very interesting market for us, and we are always on the lookout for interesting opportunities to drive the strategic development of our brands\", he said in an interview with the AWP business news service.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The group plans to add around forty hotels, 10 to 15 of which are expected to be new builds.<\/strong>.

And to promote the establishments globally, including through loyalty programmes. According to AWP's Director for Northern Europe, this would help to lower prices.<\/p>\n<p>In the spring, <strong>the group <span class=\"il\">Accor<\/span> opened the Swiss\u00f4tel Bern Kursaal<\/strong>. At <strong>September<\/strong> will follow the <strong>M\u00f6venpick Hotel Basel<\/strong>.
