HYDE Hotel Bodrum by Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture & Interior Design marks the vibrant Turkish debut of Ennismore, part of the Accor Hotels group. Opened in the summer of 2024, this luxury lifestyle destination embodies a festival chic ethos—where sophistication meets spirited bohemian design.
With more than 29 years of global experience designing for prestigious hotel brands, Yeşim Kozanlı Architecture & Interior Design brought a refined yet energetic character to this seafront property. The architecture merges modern minimalism with a bold color palette, immersive artworks, and a spirited social layout.
A Celebration of Modern Design and Artistic Expression
From the start, the hotel’s design philosophy is about merging luxury with expression. In collaboration with Öznur Çağlayan Architecture, the team crafted bright, calming guest rooms designed for rest and rejuvenation. Expansive windows fill each space with natural light and Mediterranean views, while clean lines and muted tones offer a serene backdrop to colorful accent details and curated artworks from both Turkish and international artists.
Accommodations range from elegant suites to private pool villas—each designed for seamless connection with the surrounding nature and direct access to the hotel’s vibrant event areas, maintaining a continuous sense of celebration.
A Grand Entrance with Lasting Impressions
Guests are welcomed into a striking lobby where soaring ceilings, sculptural forms, and modern art installations set the tone. Glass walls and reflective materials enhance natural light, while the space is softened with thoughtfully placed furnishings and artistic compositions—offering a warm invitation into the HYDE experience.
Culinary Artistry Across Four Unique Dining Venues
HYDE Hotel Bodrum is home to four distinctive dining venues. The all-day main restaurant caters to global tastes with its diverse menu. For a Parisian-inspired escape, La Rebelle serves elevated French cuisine in a setting of understated elegance. The 24-hour lobby bar is the social heart of the hotel, designed for both relaxation and connection. Down by the sea, the beach restaurant offers a sensory journey, pairing vibrant Mediterranean dishes with panoramic coastal views.
Each venue is not only a culinary destination but a showcase of Kozanlı’s attention to detail—rich textures, artful lighting, and tactile materials heighten the dining experience.
Wellness, Nature, and Artistic Leisure
Throughout the hotel, the design reflects a lifestyle where wellness and creativity coexist. From tranquil yoga decks nestled in nature to a fully-equipped gym, luxurious spa, and a private beach, HYDE Hotel Bodrum is tailored for both rejuvenation and excitement.
Every space is adorned with bespoke touches—sculptures, textiles, and spatial compositions that enhance the hotel’s immersive environment. The overall narrative is one of connection: to nature, to community, and to oneself.
