The project focused on the transformation and modernisation of the locally protected Grand Hotel Galya, which had fallen into poor condition over time, as well as the removal of low-quality and architecturally questionable extensions added over previous decades. The new programme retained the hotel’s original 126 rooms; however, rooms with inadequate parameters were reconfigured within a new extension on the main entrance side of the building. In addition, the existing wellness facilities were completely rebuilt and renewed, complemented by a new outdoor infinity pool offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape and panorama. Both the newly constructed and refurbished parts of the building were unified through a consistent architectural language, resulting in a coherent and harmonious overall appearance.
