The hotel’s recent renovation seeks to respond to new guest needs through a contemporary image and customized design, aligned with the aesthetics of the nearby cargo port, which is referenced in the concept. This approach proposes a transformation that combines the global identity of NH hotels with a unique fusion inspired by the port environment, offering a differentiated and contextualized experience.

On the first floor, the main area has been redesigned and now consists of three distinct spaces. A semicircular bar articulates the flow between a multipurpose space and a buffet and restaurant area, which remains in its original location. This multipurpose space functions as an event and lounge area, generating a domestic and cozy atmosphere in front of the restaurant area.

The interior design of this renovation reflects the industrial and port character of the area. In terms of lighting and atmosphere, natural light has been highlighted through the use of dark colors, generating a more welcoming and appropriate scale for the living room, characterized by its great height. The predominant materials include wood, arranged in alternating slats to create grids and lattices, evoking the old pallets of a cargo port.

The project is complemented by details in brass and aged metals, which add a touch of history and tradition to the space.

In addition, vernacular materials such as glazed ceramics and aged mirrors have been incorporated, elements that reinforce the heritage character and add visual richness.

To give scale and balance to the design, a series of decorative elements and vegetation have been incorporated on the first floor, helping to distribute the space and adding a touch of nature to the environment.
This formal approach emphasizes the combination of modernity and historical elements, reflecting the new style and essence of the hotel in line with the current needs of its guests.
