Sunny Hvar continues the investment cycle: New attire of a historic hotel

Sunny Hvar Hotels will continue to invest in 2022 with the aim of strategically repositioning the portfolio towards high quality offers and services. The most significant investment this year is the complete renovation of the Riva Hotel in the amount of 40 million kuna. The planned opening of the newly renovated hotel is the beginning of June.

Hotel Riva, located in the center of Hvar, one of the first hotels in Hvar, opened back in 1914, exactly 15 years after the historic Hotel Elisabeth. It was named Hotel Kovačić after the initial founder of the hotel, and the hotel Riva was named in 2006 when it was completely renovated. In 2022, this century-old hotel, with its striking and original architecture, will change its name to Riva Marina, emphasizing its first-class position in the heart of Hvar's marina. The hotel is intended for guests who expect top service and high quality accommodation, and will be primarily focused on the British and American markets.

"Today, trends in the hotel industry are changing rapidly and it is important to keep up with new challenges and competition, both in Croatia and around the world. Renovation of the Riva Marina Hotel confirms the company's development strategy aimed at continuously improving the quality of portfolios and services purchasing power, which will consequently result in further raising the competitiveness of the entire destination Hvar ", Gordana Tomičić, President of the Management Board, pointed out.

Thus, the Riva Marina Hotel will have 50 new unique rooms and suites ready for this season, providing every guest with complete comfort and enjoyment. Carefully designed and executed interior design further emphasizes the historic building of the building itself, and its quality continues the direction harmonized with the most prestigious Hvar hotel Palace Elisabeth.

The newly renovated hotel will also have a new restaurant and bar concept, designed according to the latest standards and adapted to modern world travelers. Guests will be able to enjoy a variety of delicacies and drinks on the outdoor terrace, which offers a unique view of the yachts and marina.
