Trieste aparthotel Residence del Mare (Casa Minelli) is to be refurbished after Austrian group JP Hospitality Investors Club purchased the property.
The historic Italian house is in good condition, so the refit will essentially focus on lifestyle refurbishment.
Modern suit
Residence del Mare Casa Minelli has around 40 apartments, each with a kitchen-living room, and is suited to modern short- and long-stay hospitality accommodation.
The building is located in a residential area, a few metres from the old town centre’s pedestrian area. The famous Piazza Unità d’Italia, the seafront promenade and the port can be reached on foot in a few minutes.
Contemporary redesign
JP Hospitality Investors Club believes the residence meets its desired conditions and fits well into a series of recently acquired hotels. The firm’s managing partner and CEO Lukas Euler-Rolle said: “With a clear concept, we will redesign an existing structure in a contemporary way and develop it into a hip lifestyle apartment hotel.”
Daniel Jelitzka, founder of JP Immobilien Gruppe and chairman of the advisory board of JP Hospitality, emphasised: “Trieste is a unique city with a special charisma and offers a lot of catching up potential with its culture, history and gastronomy. With a new hip apartment hotel, we will cover the highly sought-after lifestyle segment here, as we have done at other locations before.”
While Gebhard Schachermayer, CAM and hotel expert at JP Hospitality, added: “The ideal location of the apartment hotel offers guests the opportunity to experience Trieste and the unique gastronomy offer on foot.”
