award winning destination

Sleeping, working, sightseeing: that’s the lifestyle city hotel guests are looking for. Our hotel makes it possible with a built-in IT network for efficient (and reliable!) data transfer and high-speed Wi-Fi in all rooms. In the construction process, we were able to demonstrate our skills as experienced professionals and troubleshooters. First of all, we had to relocate all the pipes from 120 apartments (!) to the adjacent district, while at the same time connecting the new hotel building to the district heating system along with the electricity supply from EWZ. The result: an urban spot for digital nomads and tourists that lets them make the most of their stay in the city, whether it be long or short.

the biggest challenge

A construction site of this scale in the middle of a lively urban district, with lots of traffic and a directly adjacent residential property with a daycare center and many businesses. Working with us means good vibes only!

no project without hiccups

There was a fairly substantial amount of water flowing through the site. The geological survey might be done, but then reality bites… Random. Thanks to the active engagement of our project partners and efficient site management, we were well prepared for this unexpected challenge.
