Project description

3DReid worked with Principal Hotel Company and Starwood Capital to help develop and implement a scheme to re-position The Royal York Hotel, in both a local and national market.
We reimagined the Grade II listed hotel by changing the configuration of the plan and refurbishing the main reception, public spaces, food & beverage areas and the existing 157 guestrooms.

Following on from the refurbishment, planning has been granted for a new 41 bedroom extension which will act as a destination for conference delegates and enable the hotel to manage the alternative offerings for lifestyle and conference guests.

Innovations & added value

As part of the new planning application, the team have reduced the number of car parking spaces outside the front of the hotel to allow restoration of the existing gardens and increase the amount of green space available to customers and the city.
