Family hotel Vilinia****S: Ko tehnologija postane nevidna, izkušnja pa nepozabna

We are proud to present our successfully completed project for Terme Olimia’s Family Hotel Vilinia, where we carried out a complete renovation of the central kitchen and designed and manufactured a bespoke buffet system.

The project combines outstanding functionality, refined design, and advanced technological solutions that remain hidden from view while delivering an exceptional culinary experience for guests.

From the renovated central kitchen and innovative buffet area to the live cooking station and bakery corner, every element was designed with one objective in mind: to create a space that impresses both guests and staff.

The Foundation of an Exceptional Culinary Offering

The project began with the complete renovation of the central kitchen, which now serves as the reliable heart of the hotel’s foodservice operation.

During the planning process, particular attention was paid to efficient workflows, functionality, equipment quality, and long-term system reliability. The result is a professional kitchen designed to meet the demands of a modern hotel while providing optimal working conditions for the kitchen team.

A Buffet Area That Sets New Standards

The centrepiece of the project is a fully bespoke buffet line, designed to complement the architectural character of the space.

Its defining feature is the seamless integration of refrigeration and heating systems beneath the stone countertops. The technology remains completely hidden, leaving guests to see only elegant lines, premium materials, and an impeccable presentation of food.

With no visible cooling or heating elements, the buffet area has a minimalist, contemporary, and architecturally refined appearance, while the concealed technology ensures precise temperature control and outstanding functionality.

Lighting as Part of the Culinary Experience

Particular attention was also paid to the presentation of food.

Lighting gantries installed above the individual sections of the buffet line use carefully selected lighting to highlight the quality and visual appeal of the dishes.

Cooler lighting above the chilled section emphasises freshness, while warm lighting above the heated sections creates an inviting atmosphere and enhances the appeal of hot dishes.

It is a detail guests may perceive only subconsciously, yet it has a significant influence on their overall experience of the space.

A Bakery Corner for Freshly Baked Food

The buffet concept also includes a dedicated area for baked goods and pizza.

Guests can bake fresh pastries or pizza themselves, adding an interactive element to the space and creating a welcoming sense of freshly prepared food throughout the day.

This approach not only enhances the guest experience but also brings them into direct contact with the preparation process and the aromas of freshly baked products.

Live Cooking at the Heart of the Experience

A modern live cooking station forms another important part of the project, transforming food preparation into part of the hotel’s story and creating a memorable experience for guests.

A professional grill and a dedicated pasta preparation section are elegantly integrated into a single line. Every element follows a cohesive design concept that gives the space a sense of sophistication, openness, and contemporary culinary theatre.

A Project That Goes Beyond Conventional Kitchen Equipment

Family Hotel Vilinia 4*S represents much more than a kitchen and buffet equipment project.

It demonstrates how thoughtful planning, bespoke manufacturing, and advanced technological solutions can create a space where functionality and aesthetics come together seamlessly.

The result is a contemporary hotel concept where guests see elegance, experience quality, and enjoy flawless dining—while the technology working behind the scenes remains almost invisible.
