Project manager named on multi-million pound revamp of Tynemouth hotel

A North East firm has been named as the project manager on the revamp of an ‘iconic’ 1930s hotel in the region.

Silverstone Building Consultancy has been appointed to project manage the multi-million pound refurbishment of The Park Hotel in Tynemouth.

The hotel, which was acquired by the Inn Collection Group last month, is set to reopen in 2022 following a full redevelopment.

The art deco building, which overlooks Longsands beach on the resort’s Grand Parade, will undergo external repairs and restoration works to improve its facade, as well as an internal redesign. Plans for a sympathetic potential extension are also being developed.

Design work is underway for the project, which will involve partners including GSS Architecture, BXB Interiors, Sine Consulting, Maughan Reynolds Structural Engineers and Roberts Environmental.

Phil Bone, senior associate director at Silverstone Building Consultancy said: “The Park Hotel is an iconic building in one of the most visited coastal towns in the country.

“With our team already involved in refurbishing other properties in The Inn Collection Group’s portfolio, including Ambleside’s Churchill Inn and The Stables at Cross Butts in Whitby, we can’t wait to get started.

“A strong design team has now been appointed and we have no doubt the property will become a destination once again, as we work to improve upon its former 1930s glory.”

Sean Donkin, managing director for The Inn Collection Group, added: “We’re delighted to be working with Silverstone Building Consultancy again for our venture into Tynemouth with The Park Hotel, and the continuation of our ‘eat, drink, sleep and explore’ brand.

“The team shares our commitment to reaching the highest of standards, and has a proven track record of producing exciting refurbishment projects.”
