An application seeking planning permission has been submitted to Bath & North East Somerset Council to upgrade the appearance of the hotel at the ground-floor level along Walcot Street.
Bronze effect cladding is proposed, which it is said will complement the existing stone-effect blockwork on the façade.
Entrance alterations with new feature lighting and planting are also proposed, with the aim of the scheme being to create a “refreshed and welcoming appearance” for guests.
Other changes include relocating the existing ground-floor plant to the first-floor roof level with new acoustic enclosures and adding photovoltaic panels for the top roof on the fifth floor.
The planning reference is 25/00694/FUL and the deadline for comments is 10th April.
