Urban Lifestyle: First look at Adina Apartment Hotel Sydney Chippendale's dramatic transformation.

The interior design team for Adina Apartment Hotel Sydney Chippendale's multi-million refurbishment has described the inner-city hotel's dramatic transformation as a breath of fresh air in a gritty, urban context.

Sydney-based BKH who spearheaded the design, in this their first hotel project in more than a decade, say that the hotel's distinctive architecture and cute centralised courtyard and pool provided the inspiration for the retro-feel interior design.

Think calming sage greens, musky pinks, dove greys and an abundance of white paint which, when combined with the bold curtains, terrazzo in the bathrooms and kitchens, and retro-inspired furniture and fixtures, gives the hotel a bold, fresh feel.

The 42-key apartment style hotel, operated by TFE, Hotels, is located on Ivy Street on the southern edge of Sydney's CBD, amongst converted warehouses, cool cafes, hawker-style eateries, and galleries clustered between terraced houses and retail outlets.

According to TFE Hotels Senior Director of Sales, Shahnaz Bakhshay, the new and improved Adina is a hotel that corporate travellers have already embraced and that leisure travellers are going to have on their radar very soon.

The hotel welcomed their first guests earlier this week.
