Title: Arenalas Hotel
Post by: John H on May 15, 2016, 08:13.
I took a look this am on my morning walk...........I was surprised to see so much of the old structure...........it does look like more of a reform than a new build.

Glorious sun rise

Regards all

I'm surprised as well at so much of the old building "fabric"  being used - I'm sure the structural engineer knows what hes doing !

Apparently there's a graffiti piece inside attributed, no less, to Picasso.  Not a fan personally, but must be quite a feature if true.

Just seen in the Courier that the hotel planning permission was for renovation whereas it's being demolished. They have been instructed to stop work but apparently are continuing whilst legal arguments take place. Could be an eye sore again?

I dont understand how they can say its being demolished when we were last out they seemed to have taken down exterior walls, presumably to replace with a strengthened more secure version but the structure itself was still up. Looks like it is in the recent pics too.
I wish they would stop arguing amongst themselves and let Arenales and the surrounding areas have a good looking, safe, economically viable hotel instead of a dangerous, crumbling, money eating eyesore.  Maybe they should just fine them and let them crack on.
