RENOVATION AND MODERNIZATION OF HOTEL BUILDINGS - CASE STUDIES IN SILESIA

Journal Title: Civil and Environmental Engineering Reports - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 19

Abstract

The cultural heritage of Silesia has different backgrounds and is often characterized by difficult to assess values. There is doubt as to whether some of the existing buildings should be modernized. Since 2000, an increase in the amount of investments in hotel buildings and conference venues in Poland has been observed. The functions and roles of hotels within a city have also changed. The paper presents examples of original projects and realizations of hotel buildings in Silesia. A discussion was also held regarding the issue of adapting and modernizing hotel buildings.
