RESTORATION AND EXTENSION OF A PRESTIGIOUS 5-STAR HOTEL
Knightsbridge, London
Project name: Jumeirah Carlton Tower
Location: London
Sector: Leisure
Client: Carlton Group/Pegasi
Status: Complete
Services: Architecture and planning
Type: Restoration and new build
Size: 80,000 sq ft
A complex refurbishment and extension of a 5-star landmark hotel in London, all completed whilst the hotel remained fully operational, in a layered implementation.
Studio CF created a new ballroom, banqueting kitchens, swimming pool complex, and enhanced leisure facilities.
The original architecture of the building, although striking, created structural limitations that required a sophisticated solution in adapting the space to changing customer desires.
As well as improving the customer experience, the design engaged with employee workflow and circulation. The back of house space was rationalised with new underground parking and apartment mews to the rear of the hotel.
