Mixing boutique with grande dame hotel tradition, Copenhagen’s Grand Joanne Hotel opened in the middle of 2023 in a renovated centuries old building.
Part of that theme is a Genelec sound system.
Project Manager Fredrik Nordström for integrator Effektgruppen explained, “Music is central to the ambience at Grand Joanne, and it’s reflected in every aspect of the hotel.”
He outlined the details, “In the lobby, we installed 11 Genelec 4420 Smart IP loudspeakers paired with two 7050 studio subwoofers. This creates an enveloping sound experience as soon as guests step inside, setting the tone for their stay.”
For other public spaces, “This same attention to audio quality extends to the bar and restaurant. Joanne’s features eight 4430 loudspeakers and one 7050 subwoofer, providing background music for daily service or live events, while the adjacent bar is equipped with seven more 4430s plus another 7050 subwoofer, for a seamless auditory experience.”
He added, “We also created some custom touch panels at various points so that staff can easily adjust sound levels. This is particularly helpful in the gym and yoga studios, as all AV elements can be modified depending on the intensity of the class.”
