Hotel CARO Bucharest has completed the first stage of an extensive transformation process, representing a 3 million EUR investment in its infrastructure modernization. The project, coordinated by General Manager Răzvan Lăzărescu, a manager with nearly three decades of experience in the hospitality industry, aims to convert industrial heritage into a dynamic urban hub, adapted to the needs of the contemporary business traveler. The initiative highlights a management strategy focused on adaptability and the preservation of historical value, strengthening the hotel’s profile as a landmark in the capital’s business ecosystem.
The first phase of the renovation covered an area of 4,200 sqm and included the modernization of 85 accommodation units and the lobby area. Implementation involved integrating advanced technological solutions, such as room automation and digital access systems, into a historical structure dating back to 1930, the former National Glucose Factory. The interior design prioritized the use of natural materials, such as oak wood and leather, to preserve the original industrial aesthetic, defined by exposed brick and metallic elements.
Situated on the shores of Lake Tei, the complex goes beyond the traditional accommodation function, operating as a versatile space for networking and relaxation. Facilities include the La Vitrine restaurant, the Glucoza Terrace, and the 1000 de Chipuri Wine Bar, complemented by the CARO Cultura initiative, which integrates film screenings and artistic events. Management’s future plans include expanding facilities in the green areas and continuously adapting services to the requirements of an increasingly dynamic business segment.
