Premier Inn London is the conversion of an existing 1930s office building, which had subsequently been re-clad and remodelled in the 1980s into a new 258-room hotel. We were responsible for the completion of all mechanical, electrical and sustainability works, with the project award of 'Very Good' under Premier Inn Whitbread assessment methodology. The works included a new reception and restaurant at ground floor level, a new front entrance and remodelling of the courtyard to create a new public space whilst improving accessibility. The development followed an extremely tight timescale with initial hotel phase taking just 10 months from start on site to completion. The finished building provided Premier Inn with a flagship hotel, their first in the City of London.
