Last-minute bookers benefit from a very special surprise when booking the high-quality Sentido Hotels on selected dates. The hotel brand for all senses is launching an international culinary event series: the Sentido 9-Hands-Dinner Events. For each event, three chefs from three Sentido Hotels will jointly create an exclusive four-course menu – inspired by local ingredients, regional crafts and international influences. Guests can therefore look forward to exclusive international evenings of enjoyment. A total of nine Sentido Hotels are involved in the series – and thus nine destinations that will gradually become part of this culinary journey of indulgence.
The series embodies exactly what Sentido stands for as a brand: the highest quality, international diversity, and experiences that emotionally move our guests and remain sustainably in their memories. It follows the principle of a culinary journey with a surprise element: one of the guest chefs then takes over the hosting role for the subsequent 9-hands dinner – and simultaneously „reveals“ the next destination. The date and subsequent location are communicated at short notice, usually about a month before the event, making it perfect for spontaneous travellers looking for a very special last-minute holiday.
„Every plate tells a story – of origin, craftsmanship, and authentic flavour,“ continues Frank Funke, Corporate F&B Manager for the DERTOUR Group Hotel Division, who launched the culinary journey. „With the 9-Hands Dinner series, we are creating something unique: a culinary bridge between nine destinations, demonstrating how diverse yet interconnected the Sentido world is. Our guests should not just eat – they should feel, see, smell, taste, and remember. That's precisely what makes this series so special.“
