Underground five-star hotel planned for Hersham Golf Club
09 December 2009 GMT 16:08 (Surrey)
Claudel Venture Holdings, part of the international leisure company Arkin Group, has announced plans for a five-star boutique hotel and luxury spa at Hersham Golf Club, Surrey.
The unique, sustainable and innovative subterranean development, designed by international hotel architects ReardonSmith, will include restaurants and bars, business facilities and improvements to the golf course along with a brand new clubhouse.
Mr Cahit Atasoy, CEO of Arkin Group Developments explains: “Our vision is to create a stunning boutique hotel and spa destination that will be truly unique and prestigious. It will blend into the natural woodland setting and enhance and increase the level of green landscape. At the same time the Golf Club will be improved and remain an inclusive and open amenity for the local community.”
Sidharth Bhatia, Project Leader, ReardonSmith Architects, adds: “Our aim is to design a five-star hotel that is commercially viable while being sensitive to the demands of the ecosystem. Through the combination of innovative design and intelligent building technology we are replacing existing surface buildings with subterranean ones and, in effect, visually returning land to the Green Belt.”
The 200-plus room hotel has been designed to blend into the surrounding environment, with the guestrooms below ground level set around sunken garden and courtyard spaces and a living green roof that reflects the natural landscape.
The total area of the hotel and new golf club will be approximately 177,000ft2 with an additional 71,000ft2 of underground car parking.
