Interior productions of the hotel continue at full pace. While steel column fireproof plasterboard productions continue on one hand, mechanical devices are put in place simultaneously. Mechanical electricity productions at corridors have been completed, with the ceilings closed subsequently. Mechanical-electrical productions have been completed in a large majority of hotel rooms, with the walls made ready for wallpaper application. Ceramic productions at room bathrooms have been completed, while installation of sanitary ware is still in progress.

Congress Hall

Assembly of perforated screens at the Congress Hall are about to be completed. The vertical joint gaps between the screens have started to become eye-catching. Interior ceiling and tribune carcass works at the Congress Hall are still in progress.
