Swiss-based firm Aminona Luxury Resort said that they could now go ahead with the construction after a Swiss federal court gave the project the green light last week, dismissing environmental concerns about its construction.
The five-star complex - called "Royal Village" - will be one of the Alpine country's largest tourist resorts. It will accommodate up to 2,500 guests. It will also be equipped with 30 bars and restaurants, a night club, an artificial lake and a ski gondola. The resort will be linked to a ski resort in the same canton as the picturesque Matterhorn mountain.
Vladimir Marakutsa, the managing director of Aminona, said "The firm would start construction next spring with the first tourists due to arrive in 2017". Aminona is supported by Russian tycoon Sergei Polonsky, the former chairman of Mirax Group.
