Project's Description

 The design concerns the renovation of the existing building of the old Xenia hotel in Arta. The building was designed by architect George Zervos, is located at the city's castle and had been constructed with a building permit of 1959. It is a complex, with a total area of ~2600 m2, of three structurally independent reinforced concrete buildings, which are functionally connected to each other.
