Hotel in Zurich Teams Up With Luxury Automaker Jaguar for Day of Discovery

ZURICH, SWITZERLAND–(Marketwired – Jul 8, 2013) – With
temperatures on the rise, Renaissance hotels around the world
kicked off the start of summer with the second-annual Day of
Discovery. On 19 June 2013, more than 100 hotels around the world,
including this

hotel in Zurich, Switzerland, offered guests and locals the
chance to experience something new.

The Renaissance Zurich Hotel came up with the “purr-fect” way to
celebrate, joining forces with luxury automaker Jaguar to bring its
new Jaguar XKR-S convertible to guests of the business hotel in
Zurich. From 11am to 5pm, employees of Emil Frey AG of
Zurich-Oerlikon chatted with guests about the luxury sports car and
offered them the opportunity to have their photo taken alongside
the top-of-the-line automobile.

The party didn’t stop there, though. The hotel close to Zurich
Airport also hosted an after-work party at its Next2 bar and
lounge, where the Jaguar theme continued with the rainforest-like
atmosphere, signature cocktail, the Wild Cat, and live music
and dancing.

Those guests who missed the event but still want to keep the
excitement of exploration at the forefront of their stay can visit
some of the area’s top attractions, from the Chinese, Botanic and
Lindenhof gardens and Grossmuenster and Fraumuenster churches to
the Zurich Zoo and the Opera House.

Discovery is at the heart of the Renaissance brand, which
encourages guests to Live Life and Discover. This day-long event
was just the beginning of the brand’s Summer of Discovery, a
season-long calendar of RLife
^®LIVE events at Renaissance locations around the
world. To find out what’s happening here and at Renaissance hotels
