Hotel Keight
Opatija
14°17'50'' E
Hotel Keight is inspired by sailing, the sea and travel. The hotels’ spatial layout reflects the layout of a ships’ decks. Located in the centre of Opatija, this modern hotel is an homage to Opatijas’ tourist heritage, a refined place for socializing and gathering where the guests are greeted by a pleasant atmosphere and the feeling of returning home after a long journey.
The façade canvas is structured in a regular grid, composed of glazed fields separated by horizontal (inter-floor) construction elements and vertical structural elements of the façade. In addition, discreet tones and textures, characteristic of the protected setting and atmosphere of the Opatija historical structure, give the hotel building a clear classic form, adapted to the surrounding environment and its basic purpose, and at the same time contribute to the urban space image.
The hotel’s central point is a restaurant on the ground floor, a meeting place for hotel guests, guests of the city and all residents of Opatija. The restaurant is inspired by old coastal cuisines, with a large communal table which invites to a shared meal and encourages socializing. The hotel café, following the example of Opatija and Vienna, will serve coffee and traditional desserts.
The accommodation units are a contemporary version of “staterooms”, as the first-class cabins on a ship were traditionally called. With dark colours, the colours of the sky and the sea in a storm, they draw the guest into a haven.
A bar, a swimming pool and a sun deck are located on the roof. Bright and light tones represent a kind of escape into the dream world. On the lower deck, the basement of the hotel, there are wellness facilities.
