As we continuously work our way around ever-changing travel regulations and restrictions, up-and-coming destinations and top luxury properties tell us how they’ve changed and adapted to ensure a pleasant stay as always. Weighing in is Alessio Minetto, General Manager, The Woodward, An Oetker Collection Masterpiece Hotel in Geneva, Switzerland

PROPERTY’S RESPONSE TO EVER-CHANGING TRAVEL REGULATIONS
"We review forecasts regularly and adapt resources accordingly per department. We have trained colleagues to protect themselves and others from infection by following the rules on hygiene and physical distancing. We have also updated our cancellation policy (2 days prior to arrival to avoid 1 night penalty) to feature attractive offers.

In addition, we now offer a variety of dishes/specialties on the room service menu for those who feel safer to dine in their own suite, organize PCR tests upon request in the hotel, and limit the number of guests in our restaurants and bars."
