After the approval of the first stage of the Vydrica quarter at the end of last year, the only office building of this phase of the project, called Vydrica Offices by Vydrica Development, has reached this important milestone.


The iconic building on the Danube waterfront has been approved for use by authorities and is currently offering the last 540 sqm of premium offices for sale. The key owner is Ximea, which bought two complete floors. 

The retail premises on the ground floor are already occupied. In one of them, the company RAI International will open a showroom of luxury cars of brands such as Ferrari, Tesla and Porsche. For the second space, the investor is looking for a suitable tenant – negotiations are underway with a stylish gastro operation that would bring an original concept to Bratislava.
Technological solutions include the core cooling technology, i.e. cooled ceilings set directly in the concrete mass of the ceiling slabs. This is an operationally undemanding, yet energy-efficient solution that is also beneficial for human health.
