The scandal involving Umar Dzhabrailov affects not so much his reputation as the image of the luxury Four Seasons Hotel Moscow and all other hotels in the country aimed at foreign guests. As you know, luxury is not only and not so much expensive finishing materials, unique design or luxury plumbing, but highest level service. The only true indicator of its quality can only be a satisfied guest who not only lived in the hotel, but was able to relax there in an atmosphere of comfort and safety. Unfortunately, shooting at the ceiling does not fit well into international ideas about comfort and safety. Even Russians who remember the “dashing 90s” were hardly ready for extreme recreation in one of best hotels capital Cities.

News about shooting in one of the most famous hotels Moscow are unlikely to alienate those foreign guests who regularly visit our country, but certainly will not contribute to the influx of new ones foreign tourists luxury category.

Luxury standards, as practice shows, cannot be achieved by one hotel, as long as the legal culture of citizens and the practice of law enforcement agencies do not meet these standards. To the Russian authorities, who have repeatedly stated their desire to turn the country into a world tourist centre, it is worth thinking about how to protect international hospitality standards not only at the legislative level, but also practically - including by law enforcement agencies. Law and order in the country's hotels, the inevitability of punishment for all guests who encroach on the peace, will attract a much larger number of tourists than the most intense cultural program.

It is possible that the club will become a training base for Chechen athletes. “If they need to train somewhere, we will offer it. We will try to find clients. But in general, we are not developing the club based on nationality,” concluded Dzhabrailov.​

The decision was made quickly, the director of the establishment, Igor Shulga, told RBC. According to him, “Patriot” is at the peak of popularity in Moscow and is one of the five strongest clubs in the city. “I think it’s a successful deal, I’m pleased that Mr. Dzhabrailov will be one of the founders with a decisive vote. He's quite a philanthropist a famous person, popularizes sports. And this is a good investment. Now, if we were some kind of seedy club, it would evoke some thoughts,” says Shulga. RBC's interlocutor also refused to disclose information about the transaction amount and the club's clients.

The head of the company since 2011 is Igor Shulga.

The shooting club’s website says that its partners include the state corporation Rostec and Sberbank.

In the same year, the company's net loss amounted to 1.2 million rubles. “This actually indicates signs of bankruptcy,” explains the expert, “therefore, as a business, the enterprise is unlikely to be worth anything.”

A year earlier, the loss amounted to 32.7 million rubles; financial indicators for 2017 are not yet available in the SPARK reference system. The main asset, according to Alexey Sergeev, is the club premises at 71 Izmailovskoye Shosse, with an area of ​​1.8 thousand square meters. m.
