DDG at Zagreb Property Forum: Elevating the Hospitality Industry

Our esteemed colleague George Bobvos recently participated in the Zagreb Property Forum held at Hilton Conference and Events Centre in Garden Inn Zagreb. He shared valuable insights on the heightened competitiveness in the post-pandemic hospitality sector. Investors, developers, and operators are increasingly driven to provide personalized and memorable experiences to retain guests.

Investments in technology, design, and service are now essential. Both investors and guests are increasingly aware of the importance of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors. Sustainability for developers involves not only selecting eco-friendly building materials but also creating 'hospitality communities' rather than just offering rooms.

Croatia, particularly Istria and Kvarner, holds a unique value proposition for international hotel brands. These regions, historically the birthplace of tourism in Croatia, are prime locations for high-quality hospitality investments.
