Premier Inn has recently invested in the redevelopment of its Uxbridge hotel to provide increased accommodation options and better facilities for guests. To achieve this, a brand new 80-bed unit has been constructed.
The services design uses an all electric solution with air source heat pumps for heating, cooling, and hot water generation. Overall a low energy strategy had been delivered to minimise operational running costs.
The building services use a 4-pipe fan coil unit arrangement with various ventilation systems to suit the different use areas. Full building power back-up standby generation, UPS, security and access control and automatic blinds all formed part of the fit-out.
Princes Arcade in St James’s is part of the Grade II listed building within which a major new restaurant unit has been created along with office, core and atrium refurbishment.
The development is an 12 storey building comprising 13,475m2 (NIA) of office area over basement to eleventh floor and 141m2 of retail area located on ground floor.
The building has been meticulously refurbished to incorporate a range of sustainable features, targeting BREEAM Excellent and EPC A ratings.
St James’s Market Phase 2 is the “pioneer” related to the Design for Performance initiative and NABERS UK rating.
