Accor partners with SK Development to launch the inaugural Swissôtel in Kyrgyzstan, situated on Issyk-Kul’s shores. This 5-star hotel will provide premium services amid stunning Issyk-Kul Lake surroundings.
Accor announces the signing of a cooperation agreement with SK Development to open the first Swissôtel in Kyrgyzstan, which will be located on the shore of Issyk-Kul, one of the largest lakes in Central Asia. Combining Swiss hospitality, excellent service and stylish modern design, the 5-star hotel will offer its guests exceptional recreational and wellness services on the shores of the magnificent Issyk-Kul Lake.
“With the signing of the new Swissôtel, we are strengthening Accor’s leading position in the region and making a significant contribution to the tourism industry of Kyrgyzstan. Issyk-Kul Lake attracts more and more tourists every year due to its unique healing microclimate and the fascinating beauty of the high-altitude mountain lake, as well as the excellent recreational opportunities all year long. We are confident that the new Swissôtel will become a new place to visit for both local residents and numerous tourists from all over the world. We are grateful to our partners SK Development for their trust and are looking forward to the implementation of this project,” said Alexis Delaroff, Chief Operating Officer of Accor New East Europe.
The new Swissôtel will be built on the northern shore of Issyk-Kul Lake near the Kosh-Kol village and located on the territory of Kyrgyzstan’s first international golf resort with an 18-hole course, a Golf Academy and extensive infrastructure. The year-round resort with a total area of 105 hectares will offer high-quality recreation facilities and a unique design winding through hilly terrain and elevation changes, aimed to surprise even the most sophisticated golfers.
The future Swissôtel will be located in a 14-minute drive from Issyk-Kul International Airport and 222 km from Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan.
The exclusive hotel will offer 110 rooms and apartments of various categories, elegantly designed according to the Swissôtel brand standards. Its infrastructure will include spa facilities with a pool and a modern fitness center, as well as a gourmet restaurant and a congress hall for corporate and private events. The hotel’s location on the lake’s shore provides quick and easy access to the complex’s equipped sandy beach for spending a nice leisure time.
“We are pleased to cooperate with Accor Group and the entire team of professionals working on the implementation of this project. In the new hotel, we will try to combine local traditions of hospitality with the most modern achievements in the hotel industry. We pay special attention to raising the level of service standards in the region and setting new benchmarks for the tourism industry. We are confident that the Swissôtel on Issyk-Kul Lake will become a new point of attraction for guests from all over the world,” adds Alexey Konev, General Director of SK Development.
