A THIRD OF OUR LIVES IS SPENT SLEEPING GHM AND HÄSTENS
Hästens is the world’s oldest mattress manufacturer. For five generations, since 1852, it has doggedly followed its passion, using exclusively natural materials to hand-build the world’s best beds. After fitting the first Hästens beds at The Chedi Andermatt, GHM has now recommended that all its establishments be adapted to Hästens' unique style, making it the first hotel group to treat its visitors to such an exquisite level of luxury. Rapturous guests from The Chedi Andermatt found that they sleep better there than in other hotels. More over, they say that the mattresses of Hästens’ beds are so well balanced that their partners’ movements went completely unnoticed. The beds made by the Swedish manufacturer come with a 25-year guarantee, which is just as un heard of as the € 80,000 price tag on its flagship Vividus mattress. Each bed is made precisely to order and takes between 140 and 160 man-hours to complete. Every year up to 70 are produced, and more than 600 have already been delivered, most of them to China. The company’s latest exclusively hand-crafted product, Lenoria (see photo), offers an unparalleled sleeping ex peri ence. According to the International Sleep Products Association (ISPA), since 2000 the bed sector has boosted its turnover by just under 40% due to growth in the sleep industry’s high-end luxury segment. Bearing in mind Hästens’ 25-year guarantee on the bed, if people are prepared to spend 30 cents a day on their health, even the cost of its Vividus becomes reasonable. Indeed, after this period has elapsed the customer will have paid around €5 a night. So is a luxury bed worth its price after all? One thing is certain: Hästens is certainly the reason why sleep is far more highly valued today than it used to be, as well as being vital for maintaining our health and revita lising energy levels

Mr Vladislav Doronin, international businessman, philanthropist and owner of Aman since August 2015 has achieved a successful settlement of all claims in the long-running court dispute. The High Court in London has today issued an order confirming the settlement. As a result of this settlement, Mr Doronin continues to be in full control of the luxury hotel group Aman.

The settlement was concluded with KPMG as liquidators for Mr Omar Amanat’s vehicle ‘Peak Hotels & Resorts Limited’ (PHRL) following its recent involuntary liquidation. PHRL had brought the initial claim in the High Court of England & Wales.
