Helping Guests Discover Arcadia Dublin Before They Visit
When choosing a venue for drinks, dining or a special event, atmosphere often plays just as important a role as the menu itself. Before making a booking, many guests want to see the venue, understand the layout and get a feel for the experience on offer. To help showcase its unique environment, Arcadia Dublin partnered with Advanced Solutions to create an immersive Matterport 3D Virtual Tour.
Known for its stylish interiors, vibrant atmosphere and versatile event spaces, Arcadia Dublin offers a memorable hospitality experience in the heart of the city. The virtual tour allows prospective guests to explore the venue remotely, helping them make more informed decisions before visiting.
Project Overview
The objective of this project was to create a realistic digital twin of Arcadia Dublin that would showcase its atmosphere, layout and customer experience. Using Matterport technology, we captured the venue in high detail, allowing visitors to move naturally throughout the space and experience the environment online.
As specialists in 3D Virtual Tours, we help hospitality businesses create immersive digital experiences that build trust, increase engagement and encourage bookings.
The Challenge
Hospitality venues often rely heavily on photography and social media content to attract customers. While photographs can highlight individual features, they rarely communicate the flow, atmosphere and overall experience of a venue.
For Arcadia Dublin, it was important to showcase:
- Bar and dining areas
- Interior design and décor
- Event and social spaces
- Venue layout
- Customer experience
- Unique atmosphere
The goal was to create an online experience that would allow visitors to explore the venue naturally before making a reservation or event enquiry.
Our Solution
Using Matterport Pro scanning technology, Advanced Solutions created a highly detailed digital twin of the venue. Visitors can move freely throughout the space, explore different areas and gain a realistic understanding of the environment before visiting.
The virtual tour includes:
- Interactive walkthrough navigation
- High-resolution imagery
- Dollhouse View
- Mobile-friendly access
- Website integration
- Google Maps integration
- Interactive Mattertags
Mattertags were strategically placed throughout the experience, allowing additional information, images, videos and website links to be displayed directly within the virtual tour.
