* STAR CITY HOTEL -GUESTROOM PLANNIG TYPE & AREA |
| Planning the typical guest-room
floor presents one of the greatest challenges in hotel design.
Because guest rooms and suites generally represent between
65 and 85 percent of the total floor area in a hotel or resort,
any savings in the planning of a given floor arrangmenr (or
grouping of rooms) is multiplied many times. Therefore, a
major planning goal in every lodging project should be to
maximize the amount of salable guest-room space and keep to
a minimum the vertical core, horizontal circulation, and necessary
support areas. |
| General Plannig ;
General: Provide Guestrooms and Suites to convey a “residential”
character with complementary appointments and architectural
amenities. The designs are intended to provide distinct
relaxing, sleeping, grooming, refreshment and working zones.
Provide excellent sound attenuation to ensure guest privacy.
2. Location: Separate from public spaces; minimize walking
distances to elevators.
