Swissôtel Hotels & Resorts has partnered with alpine adventurer John Harlin to launch a series of destination Vitality Guides. Vitality is a Swissôtel program aimed at inspiring travelers to maintain an active and energized body and mind while on the road. The guides are digital, interactive maps that showcase key attractions within walking distance of Swissôtel locations and are meant to encourage guests to explore the great outdoors.

“This year, we wanted to celebrate Vitality in a fresh and fun way and to provide our guests with a new travel tool to experience the Vitality concept all year long,” said Lilian Roten, vice president, Swissôtel Brand. “Through our new Vitality Guides, we can now curate a list of compelling attractions that will help our guests gain a greater appreciation and deeper sense of place of destination they are visiting.”

In Chicago, the guide takes guests on an enjoyable walk from Swissôtel, across the Riverwalk through New Eastside and Millennium Park to the world famous Loop neighborhood, the Chicago Public Library, Dusable Harbor and Navy Pier, ending with a spectacular view at Wolf Point. The entire walk takes approximately 25 minutes.

At launch, the Guides will be available in Amsterdam, Ankara, Bangkok, Berlin, Bremen, Chicago, Dresden, Dusseldorf, Foshan, Geneva, Istanbul, Kolkata, Moscow, Osaka, Shanghai, Singapore, Sochi, Sydney, Tallinn and Zurich, with more destinations to be added throughout the year.
