Hotel Institute Montreux

DISCOVER THE BUSINESS OF HOSPITALITY

Since its establishment in 1985, the hallmark of Hotel Institute Montreux (HIM) is its modern approach to management, marrying a contemporary American management business outlook, with a sophisticated Swiss approach and savoir faire.

Students on the bachelor’s program (awarded in partnership with Northwood University, USA) learn the art of hospitality management combined with a specialization in Financial Analysis & Wealth Management, Luxury Brand Management, Human Capital & Development, Franchise Business Development or Management for the Senior Living Industry. The customized programs offered are also endorsed by industry leaders, including Singular Places, Dorchester Collection, Disney Parks & Resorts and ClubMed. It is the combination of the business focus of the programs, practical skills and industry-recognized work experience, that allows HIM students to tailor their education and open doors to a wide variety of exciting career options around the world.

Located in the heart of Montreux, with the Alps providing a spectacular backdrop, HIM is comprised of three former hotel buildings within walking distance of each other: Hotel Europe, Leman Residence and The Freddie Mercury. All buildings have been renovated and equipped to provide state-of-the-art accommodation and modern learning facilities.
