Hotel Hilton
2017.
Architecture
The “Hilton” hotel is an innovative spatial and technological intervention in the urban fabric of Belgrade. The object achieves a special solidity of the city block and a new interpretation of the street through a new/traditional loading into the urban matrix. As such, it is contextualized and characteristic both in the typological sense and in terms of form and spatiality. The building is vertically and in-depth spatially and programmatically layered. The envelope integrates the street into the interior space, and on the other side, it opens up public content through its layering and depth. Advanced technological solutions of installation systems contribute to the quality of the entire space and comfort. It is precisely the relationship of individual spaces to the surroundings, to the street, the hall on the ground floor and the restaurant, the inner courtyard, the roof terrace, and even the garage – the utilized potential for this building to become a public place of the city. The “Hilton” hotel project received the “Aleksej Brkić” annual award for the most successfully realized work in the field of architecture for 2018.

Materials are carefully selected. The ground floor is made of gray stone, while the elements on the upper floors are made of printed metal cladding to make them “lighter”. These elements are white with shades of light gray so that in the final appearance the facade gives the impression of whiteness. The whole composition, in principle, is aimed at the memory of the space of the wider city, the connection with it, and reminiscences of the new contemporary identity.
The hotel has 5 stars. All facilities provided for a hotel of this category have been designed and functionally divided into three units. The number of accommodation units spread over 5 floors is 243, i.e., about 496 beds. According to the organization of accommodation units, standard rooms, junior apartments, two-room apartments, three-room apartments, and the presidential suite are designed. The hotel also has a large ballroom, multi-purpose divisible rooms, a meeting room, and a VIP lounge. On the +8th floor, there is a specialized restaurant with an attached kitchen. All functional units are clear and easily accessible to the visitor.
