First class for everyone
In 1948, Ueli Prager opened a restaurant in Zurich with a simple belief: everyone should be able to enjoy
the good life. Not hospitality that felt distant or exclusive. Not luxury for the sake of luxury. Just great food, good wine,
good times, and the pleasure of sharing them.
That spirit still defines Mövenpick today.
We believe in doing ordinary things in an extraordinary way. In making people feel welcome, never intimidated. In creating experiences that feel special, without ever feeling stiff or formal.
Because first class should be for everyone. And sometimes, the difference between ordinary and extraordinary is simply a little more care.
A little more thought.
A little more joy.
That is Mövenpick.
What we believe
Reconnection
The best moments happen when
people are truly present with one
another.
We create the space for that to happen
whether it is around a table, in a hotel
lobby, at a family celebration, or
through a thoughtful gesture that
brings people closer.
Generosity
We believe in giving a little extra. Not because we have to, but because we want to make someone’s day.
A thoughtful touch, a helpful idea, or a
small gesture that was not expected but
makes all the difference.
We start with care, and then we add the
cherry on top.
Joy
Life gives us plenty of reasons to
celebrate. Some are big. Some are small.
All of them matter.
We bring lightness, warmth, and a little
joie de vivre to the moments we share
with our guests, our colleagues, and our
communities. Because joy is better when
there is more of it to go around.
Immerse Yourself
We believe in giving it back
Through Kilo of Kindness, Heartists®, guests, and communities come together to support people in need. What began as a simple idea - donating food, clothing, or essentials- has grown into a global movement. Because small acts of generosity can make a big difference. This is how we make moments matter beyond our hotels.
