Council backs new boutique hotel in Waterloo

PLANS for a new boutique hotel in London’s Waterloo have been given the green light.

Councillors on the Lambeth Council’s Planning Committee last night approved the proposal for a new 40-bedroom hotel in Lower Marsh, a short walk from Waterloo station.

The site is made up of four Victorian terrace properties which currently provide retail, residential with what was Steve’s Bed and Breakfast. The approved scheme, designed by architects Kyson, will see a partial demolition and redevelopment of the site with the same mix of uses.

An earlier application to completely demolish and redevelop the 3/4 storey site as a boutique hotel was withdrawn earlier this year in response to council officer concerns.
