The hotel sector, like that of managed residences (mainly hotels and student residences), is a dynamic sector that needs to be supported.
Axess Hospitality, here to support your project
The economic performance of an investment is linked very closely to that of the entity responsible for bringing it into operation and running it.
The financial balance between an investment cost, the IRR expected by its bearer, the operator’s performance and its ability to pay the expected return, is an intricate alchemy calling for approaches that can sometimes seem potentially contradictory.
In this regard, and in addition to the obvious need to make a product attractive to customers, the design of a hotel makes a major contribution to the performance of the operator, and, therefore, to that of the investment.
Axess Hospitality draws on the experience of its partners involved in running hotels and managed residences, as well as those in the field of construction of complex, high-performance buildings, to help you by supporting your projects with the aim of optimising their performance.
Our expertise in hotel design and construction
The design of a hotel takes account of ergonomic issues and future use, as well as the construction model. The methods used for construction must serve both the project’s performance and the considerations concerning how it is used.
Axess Hospitality will support and advise you in your choices regarding construction and equipment to allow you to optimise your hotel construction costs and the building’s energy performance.
The hotel design incorporates all mandatory standards (health, safety, labour law, etc.) appropriate to the object of your investment.
Cutting-edge advice on hotel and managed-residence construction techniques
Axess Hospitality works with architects and design offices with recognised expertise, particularly in terms of consideration of the impact of climate change.
As a result, during the design and then the construction phases, we can always offer you constructive solutions to optimise the thermal and acoustic performance of your investment, whilst combining air handling, temperature control and water heating equipment to optimise comfort and energy consumption.
Your project, and the future projections for it, will receive our support in terms of design and construction, to allow you not only to complete it, but also to go on to get the best out of it.
With this in mind, we can also support you through the phases of selection, purchasing and installation of furniture and furnishings.
Our teams have extensive experience in hotel operation, which enables us to fine-tune the process of bringing together your requirements, your projections, and their practical implementation in the form of furniture and furnishings.
This phase is often the final touch to a hotel design and construction or a managed residence project. It is often the phase that will have the greatest impact on the guests’ experience, regardless of the quality of service delivered by the operating teams.
Tailor-made hotels and managed residences
Axess Hospitality, with its highly experienced teams, is your best partner to support the process of making your project a reality.
Our turnkey solutions can include advising you on analysis of the suitability of the project, design or co-design, the administrative and preliminary study phases, performing the construction itself, adding furniture and furnishings, and, finally, supporting you right through to opening up and the inevitable administrative authorisations involved.
Functionality and operational efficiency
The design and construction of a building, whether it’s a hotel, or a student residence, an apartment hotel or a retirement home, involves more than just a customer point of view. A well-designed, well-built facility helps to optimise the productivity of the operating teams, whilst maintaining their working conditions and, consequently, their loyalty.
Knowing how to work with the ergonomics of the operation of an establishment means knowing how to set up well-organised storerooms in the right position, with the right equipment and efficient routing to reduce fatigue and wasted time. These are all factors that will enhance the quality of services provided and performance of the teams involved.
Sustainability and innovation
Axess is committed to environmentally friendly construction practices. We use sustainable materials, to the maximum of their regulatory and performance capabilities, and we incorporate innovative technologies to minimise the carbon footprint of our projects, whilst maximising their efficiency and sustainability.
Knowing how to cope with unforeseen challenges, for the future
Our hotel and residence designs are flexible and adaptable, to allow for anticipation of your establishment’s future needs. For some projects where this is possible, we are very willing to incorporate reversibility of use scenarios into the design of the shell. Building renovation and reversibility of use are actually fundamental paradigms for the future of project creation. Consideration of the “recycling” of buildings is a process fully in line with the environmental expectations of public authorities. In addition to construction, Axess Hospitality has experience in the processes of renovating, refurbishing and transforming buildings, among other things, and can therefore support you with these activities.
The specific nature of different managed residence buildings: adaptation of spaces to the needs of each customer base
The wide range of managed residences, whether for students, the elderly or the hotel sector, requires adaptation of designs to be appropriate for specific uses.
A student studio will certainly not be configured in the same way as hotel accommodation or residential accommodation for the elderly.
This is also true for the common areas and operating equipment. The various spaces will not be identical in configuration, nor will they be used for the same purposes.
At Axess Hospitality, we view each project – your project – as a unique adventure that must correspond to your projections, to those of your future customers, to regulatory requirements and to your financial performance expectations.
The design, like the construction of buildings, will be the result of joint discussions and of synergy leading towards the achievement of your objective.
