SPA MANAGER AWARDS presented at FIBO 2024
Bar ohne Namen
Entschlossen verweigert sich Savage, der Bar einen Namen zu geben. Stattdessen sind drei klassische Design-Symbole das Logo der Trinkstätte in Dalston: ein gelbes Quadrat, ein rotes Viereck, ein blauer Kreis. Am meisten wurmt den sympathischen Franzosen dabei, dass es kein Gelbes-Dreieck-Emoji gibt. Das erschwert auf komische Weise die Kommunikation. Der Instagram Account lautet: a_bar_with_shapes-for_a_name und anderenorts tauchen die Begriffe ‘Savage Bar’ oder eben ‚Bauhaus Bar‘ auf.
Für den BCB bringt Savage nun sein Barkonzept mit und mixt für uns mit Unterstützung von Russian Standard Vodka an der perfekten Bar dazu.
And the winner is...
An article by Deutscher Wellness Verband
The Deutscher Wellness Verband has been working for many years to recognise the performance of spa managers throughout the German-speaking world. It also promotes professional development in the spa and wellness industry with its competitions and awards. The annual Spa Manager Awards recognise excellence in this professional group.
The programme for the staged elimination competition, which lasted several months, began in September 2023. On 14 April 2024, the six finalists were finally presented at FIBO, the world's largest trade fair for fitness, wellness and health, in Cologne and the awards were presented in an exciting finale.
This year, the competition was held in two categories with a total of 20 nominees:
Hotel Spa
- Spas that are located in a hotel that is not a wellness hotel or spa resort.
Resort Spa
- Spas that belong to a hotel or resort that is predominantly or exclusively visited by wellness and spa guests.
In a three-stage, highly differentiated and challenging process, an experienced jury consisting of Gesine Ponto, Keven Prünster and Joram Schirmaier, three very experienced and successful spa professionals and consultants, decided who was nominated for the awards, who qualified for the final and who was ultimately honoured with the prestigious Spa Manager Award from the Deutscher Wellness Verband.
