What is it?
A hotel located in a traditional art park, popular with families and groups of friends. It offers a wide range of room types for different budgets. The existing architecture has a strong character, and through contrasts of old and new, simplicity and complexity, East and West, it creates a unique hotel identity.
What makes it cool?
A “plug-in” interior concept: new functional elements are placed within the complex existing environment to bring the simplicity and unify the many layers into one coherent experience.
