Conde Nast Top 50 Hot Hotels Worldwide 2004.
A Grade II listed Cotswold manor house refurbished to the highest standards to create one of the world s most exclusive hotels and spas.
The 20 million project incorporated extensive new basement facilities to house underground kitchens, plantrooms and a spa. The spa boasts a hydrotherapy pool, sauna, steam rooms and associated specialist treatment suites. Other facilities include restaurants, a private cinema and full conferencing facilities.
The design demanded detail and finishes of the highest standard, including audio systems, underfloor heating and IT systems to each room, together with an architectural lighting solution. The services combine to provide luxury accommodation while respecting the historic nature of the hotel.
Client: Aspirations
The development comprises an 18 storey, 300 bed four star hotel with art galleries, studios, leisure facilities, cinema, restaurants and bars. Located in the East End of London, this signature building has been designed to enhance the local area and recognise the local art community that already exists.
The energy strategy (approved in principle by the GLA) is based on a Tri-Generation system, utilising CHP and absorption cooling. The façade is to be wrapped in an external skin with perforations, which in turn provide both solar shading and enhance the architectural feature of the building.
