The present-day form of Hotel Tokajv\u00e1r resembling that of a fortress derives from the remodelling and extension of an old building. The tranquil and respectful appearance of its facade is conveyed by its proportions and brick architecture reflecting an order free from all kinds of trappings. The long facade is evenly articulated, and thus preserves the configuration of the openings of the original structure. The additional storey is adjusted to it by the rhythm of its crenel-like windows. The original arched gateway has been preserved in its place, and it sinks into the surrounding brick surface as the single curve of the street-front of the house like a framework. This brave crystallized discipline systematically appears in the configuration of the horizontal plan of the building as well as in the simplicity of the frame-like development of the inner courtile. The originally horse-shoe-shaped single-storey development has been completed with another unit and an additional storey so to be as closed as a quadrangle. The courtile embraced by the building from all sides evokes the inner world of a minor fortress with its closed character, proportions and designs of openings.<\/p>\n
