What is DACHUG
Sustainable, intelligent and future-oriented renovation.
DACHUG is a hospitality company that transforms existing buildings into sustainable, high-tech places to stay. The name comes from its founders — D'Acunto and Huys — and the way they work: architecture and environmental responsibility, treated as one discipline.
Where we stand for
Europe does not need more new buildings. It needs the buildings it already has to work far better. Roughly three quarters of the existing stock is energy-inefficient, and most of it will still be standing in 2050.
DACHUG exists to close that gap in hospitality. We acquire and renovate characterful buildings, cut their energy demand dramatically, and layer in the technology that keeps them running intelligently — then operate them as places people genuinely want to stay.
Building the future. Sustainable. Intelligent.
Our attributes
Sustainable
The greenest building is the one that already exists. We renovate rather than demolish, reuse rather than replace, and design for a low-carbon operating life — not just a low-carbon opening day.
Intelligent
Buildings should think. We integrate building management, sensors and automation from the first sketch, so energy, comfort and maintenance are steered by data instead of guesswork.
High-tech
Heat pumps, heat recovery, PV, smart glazing, digital access and room control — proven technology, carefully specified and properly commissioned.
Reliable
We manage the whole chain: acquisition, design, permitting, construction and operation. One accountable partner, clear budgets, honest timelines.
Premium
Sustainability is not an excuse for compromise. Materials, light and detailing are chosen so guests feel quality before they read about the certificates.
Future-focused
We build for a stricter, warmer, more regulated world — assets that stay compliant, valuable and desirable for decades.
