Investment in tourism is a machine boasting many wheels which must keep turning and following world tourism trends on a constant basis.
Stagnation in the tourism sector has been threatening Croatia following a few record tourism years, and while many expected such a drop as more of the country’s older tourism rivals recover respectively, just how can Croatian hotels keep their rooms full and their offer hot in the face of strong competition from long-time tourism kings like Spain and nearby Greece?
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes on the 6th of November, 2018, over the now rapidly approaching winter period, the well-respected Adriatic Luxury Hotels hotel group will continue its massive investment cycle and focus on properly restoring and redoing some of their highest category hotels located in one of the country’s most popular tourist destinations, southern Dalmatia’s Dubrovnik area.
After the luxurious ”doing up” of two top Dubrovnik hotels, Hotel Kompas (Lapad) and Hotel Excelsior (Sveti Jakov area), Adriatic Luxury Hotels have announced that the same will be done to another of their high-end hotels, Hotel Bellevue, which closed its doors to guests on October the 31st this year, in order to prepare for the huge renovation works of the hotel’s accommodation facilities and part of the hotel’s interior which are due to begin during the winter.
Adriatic Luxury Hotels will invest more than 400,000 kuna per room in the upcoming complete re-doing of the top hotel’s rooms and apartments, representing the first significant investment in Hotel Bellevue since its inauguration over a decade ago, back in 2006.
The Portuguese design studio Tereza Prego is heavily engaged in the project, specialising in the interior design of exclusive hotels and other high-end residences.
As things currently stand, it seems that the redesigned Hotel Bellevue will be ready by the spring of 2019.
