Premier Inn, Torphichen Street, Edinburgh

Project

This 7-storey, 147 bedroom city centre hotel is only 5 minutes’ walk from Edinburgh’s Haymarket railway station and has direct access to the tram links to Edinbugh Airport. The hotel was constructed directly over the railway tunnels servicing Edinburgh’s two main stations – Haymarket and Waverley. As a result, minimising structural loads was critical and crane loading was monitored carefully.
