Construction of a rear extension at first floor and second floor levels above the present ground floor extension to a hotel (C1 use class).
4D Planning advised the client on the possibility to create a number of extra bedrooms and to extend the hotel at the rear. 4D Planning suggested a double storey extension above the existing ground floor extension. We were instructed to prepare the architectural drawings designing the extension and internal layouts. Once the client approved the drawings we produced the statements, forms, maps and submitted the planning application. We liaised with RBKC throughout the process until the application was granted permission.
The hotel located at 29 Holland Park Avenue, W11 3RW, is a distinguished establishment that offers guests a blend of luxury and comfort in one of London’s most desirable neighbourhoods. With its elegant design and prime location, the hotel caters to both leisure and business travelers, providing a range of amenities including stylish rooms, modern facilities, and exceptional service.
To enhance its offerings and accommodate more guests, the hotel sought planning permission from the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) for a double storey side extension. This expansion aims to provide additional guest rooms while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the property and its surroundings. The proposed plans were carefully designed to align with local planning policies, ensuring that the extension complements the existing architecture.
Navigating the planning process can be complex, particularly in areas with strict planning policies like Kensington and Chelsea. Engaging with experienced chartered planning consultants is crucial for ensuring compliance with all relevant policies and guidelines. The consultants at 4D Planning played an integral role in this project by conducting a thorough assessment of the site and preparing detailed architectural drawings that met RBKC’s requirements. These experts worked closely with hotel management to develop a proposal that not only met their needs but also adhered to local conservation area restrictions. By liaising with planning officers throughout the review process, they effectively addressed any concerns that arose, significantly increasing the chances of securing approval.
The approved double storey side extension will allow the hotel to expand its capacity and enhance the overall guest experience. With additional rooms available, the hotel can cater to a wider range of visitors while maintaining high standards of service. This strategic development positions the hotel for continued success in a competitive market. In conclusion, obtaining planning permission for a double storey side extension at 29 Holland Park Avenue represents a significant step forward for the hotel. By collaborating with experienced planning consultants from 4D Planning, the hotel was able to navigate the complexities of local planning policies and guidance effectively. Their expertise ensured that the application complied with all necessary guidelines, ultimately leading to successful approval from RBKC.
