New airport hotel set for planning approval
16.02.09
A multimillion-pound hotel development near Aberdeen Airport is to get the go-ahead from councillors, the Press & Journal reports. Planning officials have recommended proposals for a 131-bed hotel plus 64 flats at Dyce be approved next week.
The disused site is between Dyce Station and Aberdeen Airport, with a four-storey hotel to be built on the northern part of the field, and three and four-storey flats to be located to the south. The Farburn Terrace scheme, planned by developers FAB Aberdeen, is worth £8million and would help address an acute shortage of hotel beds in the city.
A bar and restaurant would be included on the ground floor of the 50,000sq ft hotel, with a new access road and car parking spaces also provided. Objection letters have been submitted from 11 parties, with Aberdeen Civic Society branding the hotel design ‘unimaginative’. The city’s planning committee is to rule on the proposals at its meeting on Thursday.
