Although Nablus city in counter many foreign people come from either tourists or business, still there is lack of one structural integrated hotel that contains all requirements and provide the best services, according to the last mentioned reason the hotel idea was emerged. The hotel has been designed as a 4-stars hotel on the north mountain (Sama Nablus) to serve 60 bedroom in four bedrooms floors, for the environmental aspects hotel is mainly oriented to the south, cantilevers and louvers have been used for shading and all openings have been designed to get the best daylights, in the structural side two way ribbed and one way ribbed have been used with drop beams.
