The resort city, located on the coast of the Baltic Sea, is well known for its musical heritage, and the hotel will express elements related to music in its design concept.

The history of Jurmala has long been tied together with the musical character of the Baltic Sea – the sound of waves crashing on the beach, the whistling of old pine trees in the wind, the shrieking seagulls in the sky, the shifting sand under your feet, and even the distant chime of the leaving train – all of this and more creates a whole symphony in the memories of everyone who has ever been here.
Thanks to this naturally musical setting, Jurmala has become a centre for concerts and other musical life of Latvia, and a place where composers, poets and singers come to find inspiration. Building on this theme, the concept of the new hotel will also be rooted in the world of music.
The project will be a full service 4-star hotel with a restaurant, bar, conference area, small acoustic concert hall, swimming pool and leisure area. The hotel shall feature not more than 120 rooms.
