The challenge
Text

In 2019, Nobu Hotel was completely renovated. The task of remodelling the building was given to the prestigious Rockwell Group, an architecture and interior design firm with offices in New York, Los Angeles, and Madrid. 

The design brief required Rockwell to create a relaxing urban retreat that reflected the colourful, vibrant character of Barcelona while including natural materials like wood, bamboo, and stone to tie in with the hotel’s Japanese roots.

Efficiency and security were top of mind when it came to smart access solutions. Nobu’s 259 rooms needed to be equipped with electronic locks that would complement the minimalist décor throughout the hotel with unique handle designs for stylish hotel property interiors.

Business Case Key benefits
  • SALTO’s new system offers the hotel increased security and flexibility, as well as easier administration from the guest room to the back-of-house, saving countless staff hours per week.
  • Integrated with in-room, check-in, PMS, guest apps and complete building management systems.
  • Ælement Fusion incorporates SALTO’s autonomous, battery-powered electronic lock and technology, SVN data-on-card, and advanced BLUEnet wireless technology with online and real-time capabilities, all without the need for wiring.
  • Provide modern, easy access and keyless option to guests with digital key technology.
  • The designer handles complement the hotel’s luxurious interiors.
