Lodz, Poland’s Hotel Andel Wins Design Award

February 9, 2010 on 7:12 am | In Hotels, Poland | Comments Off

Just eight months after its grand opening, the four-star Hotel Andels in Lódz, Poland, has already received its fourth award with the Interiors Awards from U.S.-based Contract Magazine in New York for the hotel’s outstanding design.

The Andels Lódz won the award in the category of “Adaptive Re-Use” for the transformation of an existing historical building into an exclusive conference hotel.

The showpiece hotel project, built by Austrian developer Warimpex Finanz-und Beteiligungs AG and operated by Vienna International Hotelmanagement AG, had previously won several awards for architecture, design and development.

The Andels Lódz is located in a former factory, a weaving mill established in 1878 by textile magnate Izrael Poznanski, directly next to the Old Town.

After decades of standing empty, the building was transformed into an example of how historic industrial architecture can blend with modern design.

The interior design is the work of the London-based designers Jestico + Whiles, while Polish-Austrian architectural firm OP Architekten mastered the conversion of the historical building. With its 278 rooms and suites and seven flexible conference rooms, the andel’s Hotel is one of the most modern business hotels in Poland.
