B&B Hotels Cologne City-West
After LIST Construction had already built the B&B Hotel Cologne-Ehrenfeld, the French hotel chain’s second hotel property followed just a few streets away.
For this new construction project as well, the general contractor was entrusted with the project starting with the construction planning phase.
The result is a 6,748-square-meter hotel with seven stories (including a staggered floor) and 221 rooms. This makes the property nearly twice as large as most existing B&B Hotels. Before LIST Construction could begin structural construction, the demolition work had to be coordinated. The new B&B Hotel was built on an existing site that currently houses an AfriCola production and office building.
To improve the foundation, 230 vibro-compaction columns were installed on site. In addition, a noise abatement plan was developed, as the construction site borders a residential area. The required noise barrier has already been erected using a two-layer structure made of shipping containers.
