After Federal President Simonetta Sommaruga announced a curfew for restaurants starting at 7 pm Friday, Lucerne-based Sinnvoll-Gastro launched a new offer. For example, guests of the Hotel Ferus in Emmen LU should be able to book a pro forma hotel room for 13 CHF. Because: In accordance with Federal Council regulations, hotels can serve their guests until 11 pm The offer praises the hotel with the motto “Live life as always.”
Big outrage, little demand
There is harsh criticism of the action on Twitter. “Those of us who keep the rules are stupid,” says a restaurateur. Others, in turn, praise the attempt to keep the hotel running. And Sinnvoll Gastro CEO Philippe Giesser confirms to VIEW that outrage over supply is greater than demand for cheap rooms.
“We have to survive somehow”
But it also justifies the action. “We also have to survive in some way, and by offering the room at cost, we hope we don’t have to go out of business,” Giesser tells BLICK. But he also seems surprised by the criticism of the pro forma room. The word “pro forma” was poorly chosen, “because, of course, restaurant guests can actually spend the night in the hotel,” he says.
