Major hotel renovation and refurbishment in London is using its building fabric to connect with its environment, adjacent to one of the capital’s most historic green spaces.
Contractor:
Edgewater Contracts & Specialist Joinery Ltd
The 19,500m2 hotel is constructed in two blocks up to 12 storeys high, linked at ground level by a double eight glazed atrium.
The Task
London + Regional (L + R) Hotels’ Nobu Hotel Portman Square runs along the east side of Grade II listed Portman Square, and is a complete remodelling of the former Radisson Blu. The 19,500m2 hotel is constructed in two blocks up to 12 storeys high, linked at ground level by a double height glazed atrium.
The Outcome
“The project was complex, due to the location and the restrictions that placed on access and deliveries; it was further complicated once work began by travel and work restrictions caused by the pandemic. We have a long-standing relationship with EGR: its ability to deliver a complete project from design through to completion, with comprehensive reporting and technical support at all stages gives us trust in EGR’s professionalism, and the added peace of mind of a single source of accountability and communication throughout.”
