GREAT SCOTLAND YARD HOTEL
DESIGN BY | EPR Architects |
LOCATION | London, UK |
YEAR | 2019 |
Lema Contract has furnished the 153 rooms of the exclusive 5-star hotel Great Scotland Yard in London, managed by the well-known developer Galliard Group together with Twenty Fourteen Holdings and the participation of LuLu Group. Great Scotland Yard will be the first hotel in Britain to be part of Hyatt’s Unbound Collection, which groups together hotels with individual and unique characteristics around the globe. Great Scotland Yard Hotel is situated in the exclusive area of St. James, a few steps away from Westminster, and is characterised by the distinctiveness of its location: the seven-storey Grade II historical building has hosted in the past the headquarters of the London Metropolitan Police. Entering the building is a voyage back in time, thanks to the refined stylistic details – shields and glass and bronze emblems recall its prestigious history; the hotel also features a refined restaurant, a “secret” whiskey bar that recalls the 20s era of prohibition, a library, a gym, a cocktail bar, a Palm Court hall, a ballroom and a tea room. Designed by the firm EPR Architects, Lema has looked after the designing, developing and installation of all the fixed furnishings in the bedrooms, supplying bespoke wardrobes, TV units, wooden bathroom furnishings and the doors of both rooms and main corridors. This confirms once again its great capacity to manage tailor-made supplies of furnishings corresponding to all the technical and stylistic requests of the customer.
