Kempinski Celebrates Landmark 120th Anniversary with ‘Ignite the Night’ Festivities

120th Kempinski Anniversary (2)

Kempinski Hotels today celebrated 120 years of delivering rich and meaningful experiences to its guests with ‘Ignite the Night’, a series of festivities designed to enchant and delight guests, as Europe’s oldest luxury hotel group marks this milestone anniversary. A symbolic nod to Kempinski Hotels heritage, ‘Ignite the Night’ launched with bespoke celebrations at Hotel Indonesia Kempinski Jakarta on the eve of 10 April 2017.

Hotel Indonesia Kempinski Jakarta celebrated the anniversary by inviting hotel guests and clients. The celebration was opened by Alex Pichel, General Manager. He also ignited a torch at the porte cochère that will be lit every evening for a year as a ritual reminiscent of the traditional European etiquette.

The 120th anniversary celebrations will also see the launch of the Kempinski Travel in Style Competition, offering the chance to win an exclusive ten-night trip for two people, in three Kempinski hotels, including flights, limousine transfers and suite accommodation.

120 Kempinski Anniversary (6)Commenting on this landmark anniversary, Markus Semer, Chairman of the Management Board and CEO of Kempinski Hotels, said: “After 120 years, we’re delighted to pay tribute to an extraordinary past, and herald an exciting future. Our founder, Berthold Kempinski, paved the way for a new standard of hospitality, based on timeless European elegance and impeccable service.  He created venues that introduced guests to new experiences, in unique and original surroundings, and his innovative and entrepreneurial approach has remained the inspiration for our development over the years.”

Today Kempinski manages and operates some of the world’s most iconic hotels, such as Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin, Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi, and Çirağan Palace Kempinski in Istanbul. The brand is synonymous with elegant European service, blended with the individual culture and traditions of each destination.

As well as the 120th anniversary, 2017 also marks the return of Kempinski to the Americas, with the opening of Gran Hotel Manzana Kempinski La Habana, Cuba’s first five-star luxury hotel. Housed in one of Old Havana’s most iconic buildings, the hotel will be the newest star in the Kempinski constellation.

“We have spent 120 years exploring the world, creating a constellation of remarkable havens to which guests can travel and stay in style, and we haven’t lost our thirst for discovery,” concludes Mr Semer.  “Whilst we value and preserve our traditions, we will continue to develop new and innovative approaches to hospitality, so while celebrating our past this year, we can also look forward to a bright future.”

BELVElifeEscapes_Reflections

Vodka has had quite the reputation for the tasteless drink or the ‘get drunk quick’ getaway booze. But did you know that in the Russian and Polish tradition it is believed that vodka should actually have a distinctive taste, based on what it’s made from and how.

This drink is a perfect example of how vodka can actually get very complex and deserve to be savored, not just drowned with equal amount of mixers.  t is truly an exceptional vodka that represents the strength of Polands 600 year history of vodka production in a 100 year- old distillery located in Polmos Zyrardów, in the Mazovian plains of central Poland since 1993.

Known as the most desired vodka in the world, Belvedere is drawn out of two natural characteristic ingredients: Dankowskie Rye and water. Every Belvedere Vodka bottle contains  60% of 11-steps treatment process distilled water and 40% distilled Dankowskie Rye, without preservatives and sugar added. Creating a natural vodka with character of its own. The thick liquid of Belvedere Vodka differentiates its taste with its vanilla tone at the tip of the tongue.

Most popularly served neat, on the rocks, straight, and stirred, Belvedere is great for cocktail bas too. Here are some of Belvedere’s cocktail recipes that you can try yourself:

The Pineapple Mint Smash
