Sofitel Hotel St. James

The Sofitel St. James is a 186-bed luxury hotel situated in the cultural heart of London. The project required converting and extending the historic, grade II listed, former headquarters of Cox and Kings Bank into a six-story, 186-bed luxury hotel. The hotel includes a 100-cover gourmet restaurant run by the world-renowned Chef Albert Roux, an adaptable conference and function suite and a health and fitness center. The conversion and extension included two basement levels, and a new mezzanine floor was added between the ground and first floors.

Elementa Consulting provided all mechanical and electrical services (including full air conditioning with very high acoustic limitations) and multi-scene programmable feature lighting. Across all the engineering services we delivered, we worked closely with the interior designer and team, delivering high-end aesthetic considerations with the strong functionality, energy efficiency, and flexibility required in a contemporary business environment.
