The Holiday Inn London – Heathrow M4, Jct.4 has unveiled a significant refurbishment to the public spaces, revolutionising the guest experience. The new open lobby combines the traditionally separate work and leisure zones to create one relaxed open area where guests can unwind.
The new open lobby transforms how guests eat, drink, work, meet and socialise by providing one cohesive space to fit their individual lifestyles. The redesigned space merges the reception, lounge, bar and restaurant to create one relaxed and multi-faceted area with no barriers, so that guests can blend work and leisure instinctively, which has already received rave reviews from guests and visitors.
Omar Nicholls, Development Director for LGH Hotels Management Ltd, was tasked to oversee and execute the refurbishment plans for the hotel and has worked closely with external design agency Design Coalition to achieve the new Holiday Inn open lobby concept. Omar explains, “Our main goal with the open lobby design was to create a space that feels familiar, like an extension of home, and has a logical flow so guests can truly relax and utilise each corner in a way that makes sense to them and accommodates all of their work and relaxation needs.”
Designed like a laid-back living room, guests find comfy seating, games, TV and magazines to enjoy at their leisure. For those who need to prep for a meeting, work remotely or make a long-distance Skype call, the new E-Bar offers a great space to plug in and get connected with lots of power points.
The new open lobby dining area is now a flexible and informal space with a range of high and low tables and booths to suit everyone, be it a working lunch or relaxed group meal.
Earlier this year LGH Hotels Management Ltd, who own and manage a portfolio of Holiday Inn and Crowne Plaza hotels across the UK, announced a multi-million-pound refurbishment plan across their properties, starting with the Holiday Inn London – Heathrow M4, Jct.4.
The open lobby concept is unique to the Holiday Inn brand and will be extended to properties across Europe to become a brand-defining feature.
The Holiday Inn London – Heathrow M4, Jct.4 is a modern airport hotel with multiple meeting rooms, restaurants, a fitness centre and shuttle service to Heathrow airport.
