DESCRIPTION New hotel building
PROJECT PERIOD 2023 – 2024
PROJECT VALUE $19M

MLEI undertook the structural & civil engineering for this 16-storey hotel in the Adelaide CBD from concept design, detailed design, to support during construction.

Project scope included:

  • Existing heritage building frontage to Wright Street
  • Ground level foyer/reception, conference & gym facilities
  • 135 hotel rooms and apartments on levels 1–15
  • Rooftop terrace
  • Carparking facilities.

The building was designed utilising predominantly steel framing with precast shear walls and lift/stair cores. A transfer floor at L1 is required to enable the building to extend the floor plate over the existing heritage listed building to the front of the site and maximise the floor area per level. The roof top garden will provide exceptional views of the surrounding parklands and west end of the Adelaide CBD.
