Hospitality
Further to a deep involvement in the design of several hotel projects, SYDEN got accustomed with the nature of the responsibilities demanded in this fast-paced industry and developed the necessary skill set required to meet all commitments. This learning curve will be an important added value brought to any project in any future task assignment to SYDEN, namely fast track hotel projects.
SYDEN, specializes in the architecture and engineering design services with extensive expertise in hotel MEP brand standards and Fire and Life Safety systems. SYDEN has full capabilities to tailor the design based on the operator requirements to suit the project constraints and to bypass the many blocking points typically encountered in a PIP renovation project. SYDEN has been extensively involved in the design services of upscale hotels, luxury resorts and boutique hotel projects, with over 30 branded hotels commissions, from over 10 international hotel operators.
Based on an extensive experience in similar projects, we strongly believe that the success of the Project will be tightly related to the different parties’ adherence to a clear predefined chart of communication and cooperation links.
