Document Description
The Guest House Building project will construct a 25,000 gross square foot hotel-type building that would contain 60 guest rooms and approximately 70 beds among three different room types. The Guest House will provide accommodations to LBNL's visiting guests, researchers, and scientists who need close-by and around-the-clock access to LBNL's user facilities. The average height of the three-story building along its west face would be 35 feet. Because the building would be terraced into the hillside, the eastern face would be approximately 25-30 feet in height. The interior of the building will include a lobby, corridors, stairways, mechanical/electrical equipment, an elevator, an office, housekeeping storage areas, engineering, laundry, and fitness center. Guest House rooms would be complemented by a variety of common and/or lounge spaces that would aim to promote a sense of collaboration and community within the building. At peak occupancy, it is estimated that the Guest House will accommodate approximately 73 guests. Eight full-time staff would be hired to operate the facility. A drop off area and ADA parking will be located near the entrance of the building.
