HYDE Hotel Bodrum by Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture & Interior Design
Realized with the investment of Accor Hotels group, HYDE Hotel Bodrum, the first hotel in Turkey of the London-based hotel chain Ennismore, opened its doors in the 2024 summer season with the sophisticated and bohemian design of Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture.
With over 29 years of experience in creating accommodation projects for accredited international hotel chains across diverse global destinations, Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture undertook the architectural and interior design of HYDE Hotel Bodrum. The design, shaped with a sophisticated and bohemian approach, embraces the ‘festival chic’ concept, a perfect blend of modern luxury and dynamic energy. Focusing on merging modernity with simplicity, the hotel integrates artworks by artists from Turkey and abroad in many areas to achieve an artistic and sophisticated atmosphere. Using vibrant colors and dynamic design elements in spacious interiors aims to create an inviting ambiance.
The architectural design partnership of Yeşim Kozanlı was complemented by Öznur Çağlayan Architecture, aiming to create a serene and bright resting space in the rooms, characterized by a simple and elegant design philosophy. Rooms feature wide windows maximizing natural light, offering uninterrupted views of the enchanting Mediterranean landscapes. The hotel offers various accommodation options, including luxury suites with private pools and villas for large friend groups, all designed to provide quick access to event and communal areas, ensuring guests experience the festival spirit at all times.
The lobby of HYDE Hotel Bodrum dazzles guests from the outset with its sculptural and expensive structure bathed in natural light and enriched with modern artworks, offering a visual spectacle. High ceilings and large glass panels enhance the lobby’s airy atmosphere, complemented by elegant furniture and artistic details that emphasize prestige and luxury. This impressive space symbolizes the beginning of unforgettable moments for guests.
HYDE Hotel Bodrum boasts four impressive restaurants, each meticulously designed with different concepts, offering guests unforgettable gastronomic experiences. The main restaurant serves throughout the day with a broad menu catering to every palate, while the French-style La Rebelle Restaurant creates an elegant and sophisticated atmosphere akin to being in the heart of Paris. The 24-hour lobby bar provides guests with a place to relax and socialize amidst impressive design, while the beach restaurant offers a wide range of flavors against the stunning backdrop of the Mediterranean. These carefully designed spaces provide guests with both culinary delights and visual feasts.
Reflecting the festival spirit in every corner, Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture ensured that every detail at HYDE Hotel Bodrum is tailored to meet guests’ needs. Featuring expensive and nature-immersed yoga areas, modern gym facilities, soothing spa zones, and a private beach, all spaces blend contemporary designs with natural and artistic details. The design concept developed by Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture for HYDE Hotel Bodrum draws inspiration from the region’s natural beauty and cultural richness, harmoniously blended with modern touches to offer a unique hotel experience.
