42 The Calls Hotel - Redevelopment Vision Pack

THE STORY SO FAR

VISION 42 The Calls Hotel is a prime opportunity for a luxurious 5-star redevelopment. Current owner, Simon Pollard, had a vision to reignite the location and create opulent accommodation in a truly unique setting, with the refit blending high-end, contemporary suites into the footprint of the 18 th century corn mill. The original plans added new features to the hotel such as an exclusive, VIP rooftop champagne bar, a gourmet restaurant and more. The introduction of a premium chauffer service will be offered to guests, with the option to travel in a Rolls-Royce or cruise down the River Aire on a dedicated Riva Boat if arriving by train. We wanted to share these plans with potential investors to show the potential in creating the best hotel in Leeds 42 The Calls Hotel began its life as an 18 th century corn mill, as part of the Leeds Co-operative group and grew to be of huge importance during the industrial revolution due to its riverside location. Following a combination of factors that led to the decline of the waterfront district in the 20 th century, the once grand mill of 42 The Calls was left to decay. It became a cheap, leaky warehouse, where rusting machinery left clues to it’s glorious past. In the 1980’s, slow shoots of rebirth began, where factories and properties around the area began to be sold, and the cities trendiest area began to take shape. In 1991, the former mill was transformed into 4-star 42 The Calls Hotel and has struck a chord with guests over the past several decades. It’s now time for the hotel to be given a new lease of life and restore its place in the premier league. HERITAGE
