Designed to revive and reactivate. A welcoming meeting place that pays homage to the fabric of the existing building.
Through intelligent and considered interior design, The Claremont Hotel, by using a generous eye for life, combines refinement with comfortability to be enjoyed by all. The tenant’s vision for the Claremont Hotel Redevelopment is to create a landmark pub for the locals, featuring a bistro, bar, and courtyard for indoor and outdoor dining, function spaces, and a rooftop bar.
The project is a key opportunity to reactivate the Claremont Town Centre and enhance the connection to the new Claremont Train Station. It will bring life back to the town centre, cementing its location within the Western Suburbs, and deliver a reimagined hotel that has been the heart of Claremont for over a century but is currently missing.
The Claremont Hotel has been a stalwart within the Claremont Town Centre since its early inception and has seen a number of transformations throughout its history, but holds a dear place in locals' hearts.
The architecture is drawn from its local context. The Claremont Hotel has been a stalwart within the Claremont Town Centre since its early inception and has seen a number of transformations throughout its history, but holds a dear place in locals’ hearts. The intent is to ensure the building maintains its key historical context through the retention of key pieces such as the façade and heritage staircase.
The design pays homage to the heritage fabric of the existing building while creating an artful, crafted built form that drenches the previous dark internal spaces in natural light and creates seamless connections between inside and outdoors.
Included in the design is the creation of a large central courtyard void area with skylights above, which will enable this light to penetrate deep down into the ground floor areas, creating light and airy contemporary spaces. New back-of-house areas and amenities have been introduced to enhance operational efficiencies and the customer experience.
A number of different zones have been provided that will ensure a range of options are provided for different demographics of the community. This includes an upstairs outdoor garden area, perfect for relaxed dining, social gatherings, and group celebrations. Families with young children will feel as welcome enjoying a meal and having fun in the children’s playground, while corporates and young adults enjoy a night out.
