As the main theme of the hotel, the designers choose the winter Olympics 1984 - an event that residents of Sarajevo remember with great nostalgia - and decided to use as many as possible elements referring to Sarajevo architecture, history, and local craft.
A large amount of exposed installations and raw concrete walls were combined with wooden paneling and locally woven wool carpets. The central lobby point - shisha bar Chill Cafe – is all lined with carpets and furnished by Bosnian craftsmen. Local handicrafts appear in many details: the room numbers are hand-woven kilims, and the restaurant is decorated with hand-forged metal trays.
On the ground floor, the main space is a lobby with reception and restaurant and a lounge bar. Part of the hotel is also a la carte restaurant. The restaurant connects with the bar and lounge. On the 15th floor, there is a sky bar with panoramic windows - Ingman Bar.
References to the Olympics appear in many places. They are the main subject of several murals by Karol Banach. In each of the rooms, you will find a pair of vintage skis. At the reception hang swings made from snowboards. The guests are welcomed by wolf Vu?ko - the Olympic mascot.
