Citadines Holborn-Covent Garden, one of Ascott’s seven properties in London, has unveiled the site’s “extensive” renovations.Some of the upgrades at Citadines Holborn-Covent Garden include fully renovated rooms with new furniture, fixtures and equipment, as well as a renovated lobby and guest lounge, which have been redesigned to include flexible working, lounging and breakout areas.
The breakfast area has been fully renovated, while the fitness centre includes a new design and modern exercise equipment, and rejuvenated meeting rooms now feature new AV equipment, furniture and equipment.
The site’s room energy management system has also been upgraded, enhancing sustainability and energy efficiency.
Following the refurbishment, Citadines Holborn-Covent Garden now offers three types of rooms: studio classic (269 sq ft), studio executive (269 sq ft) and one-bedroom apartment executive (538 sq ft).
The studio classic offers a cosy space with a fully equipped kitchen, while the studio executive provides a similar space but comes with a Nespresso coffee machine. The one-bedroom apartment executive provides additional space, with a separate living area and bedroom. All room types feature modern decor, high-speed Wi-Fi, and access to facilities such as laundry services and fitness centre.
The new design of Citadines Holborn-Covent Garden is said to be inspired by architectural landmarks of the area. The Victorian brickwork of the Holborn Bars has influenced the terracotta tones in the Studio apartments, while the bright blue-green steelwork of the Covent Garden Market contrasts with the beige brickwork in the one-bedroom apartments.
The arches and ribbed glasswork from the Cuban Embassy are also reflected in the architectural detailing and FFE design throughout the property.
Billy Hughes, the UK and Ireland area general manager, said: “We are thrilled to unveil the newly renovated Citadines Holborn-Covent Garden, where we have tried hard to reflect the rich architectural heritage of High Holborn and Covent Garden.
“Our refurbished property offers guests an enhanced experience with thoughtfully designed rooms and enhanced amenities, as well as upgraded central areas including a renovated fitness centre and meeting rooms. Sustainability and energy efficiency has also been an important consideration with our new room energy management system.”
