Leonardo Hotels unveils a new lifestyle hotel in Brno, NYX Hotel Brno by Leonardo Hotels, due to open in mid-2028, marking the hotel group's second venture into the country following the successful launch of NYX Hotel Prague in 2017.
NYX Hotel Brno will be part of Leonardo Hotels' NYX brand, known for its distinctive design and contemporary flair. Each NYX hotel provides a platform for local artists to express themselves, showcasing an artistic concept through cultural events and creative expressions, under the theme "We own the night". In addition, NYX hotels offer a suitable setting for business and meetings.
The forthcoming NYX Hotel Brno will have 170 rooms spread over seven floors, as well as a terrace overlooking the lively new shopping centre. The hotel will also feature the NYX Bar and Restaurant.
Located in the Dornych urban development area, next to the main railway station and close to the international airport, the NYX Hotel Brno will be surrounded by office and residential space and a new shopping centre.
Brno, the Czech Republic's second-largest city after Prague, occupies a special place in UNESCO's Creative Cities network, in recognition of its commitment to integrating the cultural and creative sectors into urban development. Nicknamed the Silicon Valley of Central Europe, Brno is renowned for its innovation and dynamism.
The Dornych project, led by leading developer CRESTYL, is testimony to Brno's growth trajectory. In addition to the NYX Hotel Brno, the project includes around 50,000 square metres of office and retail space, as well as 186 residential units. In addition, the project prioritises public space, dedicating 25,000 square metres for community use.
CRESTYL's selection of Leonardo Hotels, facilitated by Cushman & Wakefield Hospitality, underlines the evolution of Brno's hotel landscape and the city's appeal for innovative hotel concepts.
