Wyndham Grand, London
The Wyndham Grand is an exclusive five star hotel in Chelsea Harbour,
London. During 2008 and 2009, the hotel is undergoing refurbishment to
accommodate new floor layouts and facilities including a new bar and
restaurant, banquet hall, two kitchens, reception area, roof-top function
room and private lounge with roof top terrace, penthouse suites, spa
and gym in addition to back-of-house areas for offices, laundry and staff
canteen, toilets, changing and locker rooms.
The owner of the hotel worked
with Wooldridge on previous projects and recognised its abilities to
achieve tight deadlines with strict budgets to the highest standards
of quality and safety.
Wooldridge is the main contractor and manages
every aspect of the refurbishment. This includes architectural and interior
design, planning, structural design, construction, interior decoration,
and supply and installation of furnishings. As the hotel remains open
during the project, Wooldridge works closely with the hotel operator
to minimise disruption to the hotel and its guests. Wooldridge also partners
with specialist sub-contractors to ensure quality, competitive costs
and timescales.
Wooldridge’s dedicated onsite management team has
an ‘open door approach’ so that the client and hotel operator’s
requirements are met efficiently. The project will be completed by December
2009.
