Proud to be Swiss family-owned since our formation in 1991...

...we are unique among Switzerland's hospitality schools in this ownership model.

Owner and co-founder Heinz Bürki, alongside his daughter Isabelle, ensure that this family ethos remains in our school to this day. Like any family, our shared values of care, support and inclusiveness mean that all our students feel at home here and are surrounded by friendly faces. This is one of the many reasons why our alumni remain so connected to our school and will always stay a part of the IMI family!  

We are located in Kastanienbaum which is a short, 10 minute drive from the city of Luzern in central Switzerland...
