The Innovative Construction of the Sleeperz Hotel in Newcastle
The Sleeperz Hotel groundworks project stands as a testament to innovative construction practices, particularly in urban environments with space constraints.
This remarkable six-storey pre-cast concrete framed hotel was erected on the former site of Network Rail’s parcel sorting office, adjacent to Newcastle Central Station and Westgate Road. Given the project’s proximity to major infrastructure, effective planning was imperative to ensure minimal disruption.
Overcoming Challenges with Prefabrication
One of the unique challenges faced during this construction was the limited available space. To tackle this issue, an off-site pre-fabricated panel system was employed. This approach not only facilitated efficient assembly but also significantly reduced the impact on the surrounding area.
Close collaboration with all stakeholders—network rail personnel, the public, and adjacent tenants—was pivotal in maintaining access throughout the build.
Architectural Excellence Recognized
Completed in January 2012, the Sleeperz Hotel’s architectural quality garnered recognition from the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). The hotel was awarded the prestigious Hadrian Award for architectural excellence, showcasing it as one of the finest new buildings in Northern England.
With 98 beautifully designed bedrooms and a rooftop viewing deck offering breathtaking vistas of the city, the hotel exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship and innovative design.
The expertise of Total Regen, the civil engineering and groundworks company responsible for this project, was essential in ensuring both the aesthetic appeal and structural integrity of the hotel.
