The office of \u00d6d\u00f6n Lechner and Gyula P\u00e1rtos in 1883, right after the design of the Szeged Town Hall, received a commission from the M\u00c1V Pension Institute to design the apartment building opposite the Opera. The building was inspired by the Szeged Baroque there, and the castles seen on the French study tour here. The palace brought the Renaissance style features of French castles to Pest at the end of the 19th century. The Drechsler Palace, named after the coffee house, became an important stop for Lechner’s experimental spirit and search for style. The current renovation is also experimental. The covering of the old courtyard is brave attempt: the architectural design of the glass roof of the inner courtyard that accommodates the lobby brought a series of innovative professional challenges. The glass roof is a breathtakingly light form. Thanks to complex, precise planning, they found the location of the structure and finally its parametric form. The meeting of conservation and contemporary architecture is embodied in solutions that meet the expectations of the W hotel chain. The reception area and terrace open towards the Opera, and the units providing hotel functions can be approached from the central inner courtyard. On the ground floor, the reception functions: the lobby, catering and social spaces, on the basement floor there are rest, regeneration and service spaces. The interior design is dominated by the character of the W hotels, but the lace-like metal arches in the basement, the bar and the entrance corridor allow us to see the original architecture as well, hinting at the history of the house and the city.<\/p>\n
