Description
Renovation of the 5-star Grande Bretagne deluxe hotel of the Starwood Luxury Collection in Athens.
The hotel comprises 321 rooms, 59 suites, a roof garden, 3 restaurants and bars, mixed use halls and a spa of 800 m2.
The final construction design was done while actual construction was progressing (fast-track method) within 12 months. Among the many impediments that were overcome were the limited space for plantrooms, lack of shafts, and low headroom as the building is very old and protected.
