Groups of 20 persons were touring the project to experience in real dimensions and in real time all the innovations at the standard hotel rooms: reception, lobby, city room, sensations, summer resort room &amp; spa, and outdoor lounge. Four main themes exist at the core of the project:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022<strong> Tech:<\/strong> New technological practices and innovations regarding hotel management and operation. Technology plays a leading role by seamlessly integrating itself into the activities of the hotel of the future, thus transforming accommodation into a unique experience.<br \/>\n\u2022 <strong>Design:<\/strong> The leading trends in interior design for both indoor and outdoor spaces, as well project proposals from Greek industrial designers that have already been carried out.<br \/>\n\u2022 <strong>Green:<\/strong> Presentation and use of \u201cgreen\u201d products, materials and practices, as well as natural resource management systems and technological solutions for the preservation of natural resources.<br \/>\n\u2022 <strong>Local:<\/strong> Establishment of links to the local community (create areas for locals, use social media and special apps to connect with the community, use products produced by local companies, etc.)<br \/>\nAll of these design options were completely visible to the public, creating an open dialogue with them from the start until the end of the tour. From the \u201cbiofriendly\u201d design to the use of natural materials, such as wood and stone, to the use of technology as a means of information and entertainment, all form a clear picture of how the visitor could live the ultimate hotel experience.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.xenia.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_8732_750x458.jpg<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, visitors were impressed by:<br \/>\n\u00b7 The <strong>virtual receptionist<\/strong>, a hologram giving all sorts of useful information to the visitor using screen commands.<br \/>\n\u00b7 The <strong>folding sauna<\/strong> and the fitness equipment inside the City Room closet, to save space.<br \/>\n\u00b7 The <strong>semi-transparent illuminated wall<\/strong> made with Himalayan salt bricks, which represents the modern wellbeing trend thanks to the beneficial properties of salt in the respiratory system.<br \/>\n\u00b7 The <strong>Summer Resort Room &amp; Spa<\/strong> special spa beds with quartz sand, which is heated during the treatments, giving an extra sense of relaxation.<br \/>\n\u00b7 The <strong>cooler installation<\/strong> with a refrigerator door\/screen that when the customer approaches, provides with information on the products it contains, their nutritional value, etc.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.xenia.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_8645_750x458.jpg<\/p>\n<h3><strong>A think tank for the hospitality industry<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Hotel Megatrends project was based on the interaction of the above-mentioned themes, creating an original, experimental, sociable, friendly, and unique experience and intends to become an innovation, education and inspiration hub for all Xenia visitors. Its main objective was to generate ideas on how to renovate a conventional accommodation area in addition to addressing issues such as the way design affects hotel operations as well as the way the hotel interacts with its customers and the local community.<br \/>\nThe Hotel Megatrends project presented all the latest trends and shows hotels the way to incorporate parameters such as friendly atmosphere, wellness, excellent food, great design, culture, social responsibility, and state-of-the-art technology into their operation and their overall structure. Through its architectural design and the synergies it develops, Hotel Megatrends and its thematic and specially-designed rooms showcased the way the needs of the modern traveler affect present day hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.xenia.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/IMG_8641_750x458.jpg<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.xenia.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/0F6A3982_750x458.jpg<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.xenia.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/0F6A3999_750x458.jpg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest trends in technology, interiors, architecture, construction, design, and sustainability were  highlighted at the original Hotel Megatrends project located in Hall 1 of the exhibition center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":20851,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[56],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8846","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-xenia-general-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
