Hello, my name is Thomas Goval, I am the Acting General Manager at Bürgenstock Hotels & Resort.
Bürgenstock Hotels & Resort in a nutshell … it’s more than a hotel. It’s a destination.

Hi, my name is Patricia Plesner. I am the CEO of EcoHotels.com.
I’ve always been fascinated by how tech and the environment can go hand in hand. I have an aunt and uncle who work in the hotel industry. They run a small hotel chain of eco-certified boutique hotels, Guldsmeden Hotels, primarily based in Copenhagen. I’ve heard all these stories, about guest experiences and how to sell the rooms, but it wasn’t until 2020 I really got into the industry. That was when we started Ecohotels.com.
Let’s make something happen together!
