When guests enjoy a shower in the new ‘hub by Premier Inn’ hotels, it will be with a Duschplan shower surface from Kaldewei, made from 3.5mm enameled steel.
A generous and comfortable shower in lieu of a bath is the solution for this latest room concept which aims to provide a great hotel experience in compact spaces. Owned by Whitbread, the UK’s largest hotel group with over 650 Premier Inn hotels across the country, ‘hub by Premier Inn’ is the newest concept to be added to this group’s portfolio.
Designed as a new generation of compact, city centre hotels, the first hub by Premier Inn will open in St. Martin’s Lane, London in autumn 2014 and will appeal to customers who value price, location and design over space. Comfort and style are assured thanks to ingenious, contemporary room design and excellent electronic connectivity.
Every centimetre of the 11.4 sq.m hub room will be optimised thanks to clever design ideas such as an extendable desk, luggage storage under the bed, free Wi-Fi, a 40” inch smart screen TV and the piece de resistance, an en suite bathroom with shower complete with Duschplan shower surface from Kaldewei.
Created by Phoenix Design, Duschplan is a classic shower surface from Kaldewei with a comfortable depth of 6.5cm making it easy to install in every bathroom. Available in a wide range of square and rectangular sizes, a bespoke model was created for hub by Premier Inn in the special size of 150 x 75cm to perfectly suit the blueprint for the new shower layout.
Whitbread has secured five London sites (around 1,000 rooms) to open in the next three years and is targeting to have around 40 hub by Premier Inn hotels (6,000 rooms) opened or in the pipeline by 2018.
