SINGAPORE (Yosefardi) – Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts, a leading brand in the FRHI Hotels & Resorts portfolio, has entered into an agreement with resort developer PT. Bali Ragawisata to manage Swissôtel Bali, a new 170-room resort scheduled to open in late 2017.

Situated on a striking cliff top in Bukit Pandawa, an expansive and upscale master-planned resort development, Swissôtel Bali will enjoy an enviable location on the island, mere minutes from top attractions favoured by international jet-setters and a short drive from the Ngurah Rai (Denpasar) International Airport.

Located between Java and Lombok, Bali is an island with a population of 3.9 million. It is one of Asia’s leading vacation hotspots and the largest tourist destination in the country, recording more international arrivals than Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. In addition to its world-famous beaches, Bali is renowned for its highly developed arts, including traditional and modern dance, sculpture, painting, leather, metalworking, and music.

Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts, renowned for its Swiss inspired hospitality, is extending its international reach with plans to open a number of new developments in the coming years. Projects are slated for China, India, Russia and Turkey as well as other exciting destinations globally.
