Whether designing a luxury boutique retreat or a large-scale international resort, a leading hotel design architect in England focuses on “RevPAR-driven design”—optimising room layouts and public spaces to maximise revenue while ensuring operational efficiency.Â
By integrating strategic masterplanning, immersive interior architecture, and resilient material specification, a dedicated hotel architect ensures that every touchpoint, from the theatricality of the lobby to the acoustic privacy of the guest suites, works in harmony to foster brand loyalty, drive positive reviews, and increase the long-term capital value of the asset.

Residential
This self-build family home, set in a Conservation Area, is inspired by the past.
The client’s love of manor-style properties and intricate traditional detailing has led to a design that feels historic yet contemporary.
The biggest issue with 2d plans and 3d images is that our clients struggle to understand the designs concept and when you are paying thousands of pounds on a building project this is not good enough. We use virtual reality as part of the design process to show you options and allow you to walk around the proposals as if you would in real life. You get a sense of how the completed building will feel and the sense of space.
Posted on O AshTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. CBBA are excellent. I highly recommend. A friend recommended CBBA, after using them. So I included them in the list of 5 architects to check out. CBBA were the only architect firm that gave me a quote that I could understand - clear, simple, concise and relevant. And they also had the best price. But what I liked the most about CBBA was their helpfulness and patience. It was clear that they really cared. Which came through in the design, as well as support through planning process. I really appreciated that. My only feedback is that I hope they can find a software tool that will help with clients like me that ask a lot(!) of questions LOL!. Eg an editable document where questions and comments can be logged and tracked. Mainly so that CBBA aren’t inundated with emails. Thanks again for everything Grant and Oliver!!Posted on Jason YuTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It’s been a pleasure working with both Grant and Oliver on several projects, including a residential HMO conversion on Newmarket Road and a commercial conversion on Mill Road, Cambridge. They’ve been consistently responsive, knowledgeable, and client-focused, always considering return on investment. Being local to Cambridge has also been a real asset when dealing with planning matters. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.Posted on Tuhin ChaturvediTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've had a great experience with CBB Architects from the get-go. They provided us with great ideas and design in line with our expectations for our loft conversion project, which due to the nature of the property includes remodelling of the first floor space akin to a single storey extension on the first floor. In addition they did the design of a garden room (single storey ext to our dining space on the ground floor). Although I first found them via Google search, I am impressed and satisfied by the work Grant & his team have done for us. I would recommend them to anyone for the following reasons: 1. Prompt, clear comms, fair and transparent pricing structure, knowledgeable & experts in the services they provide. Also, they are not pushy with sales, i.e. they have different packages at different price points, but they don't push the more expensive options to the clients, something that helps build trust. 2. We wanted a modern design. A quick look at their portfolio suggested that they could be the right architecture consultancy for us. This belief quickly got validated after the first meeting with Grant, who diligently did all measurements and sketched ideas there itself, quite impressive! 3. The final product (in terms of the design) looks very good. CBB did the initial Compliance level drawings for Planning. Then we also used their services for compliance level Building Regs drawings and Structural Calcs. 4. We are about to begin construction work next week; the builder has provided good feedback about the drawings/documents as it enabled him to provide a robust quote. I hope that this comprehensive review allows people to have confidence in reaching out to Grant and CBB for any architecture design and consultancy work, you wouldn't be disappointed. Good luck!Posted on Hollie TopliffeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Cameron Bosque Brookes to help us with our extension and can safely say we were very happy with all the work we received from Oliver. He was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout and answered all of our questions, which, as novices to this process, were numerous. Highly recommendPosted on Fraser HawkesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Grant did a fantastic job with our design and planning permission. He really listened to us and has come up with a design that really works and also fits within the budget we had. Would definitely recommend.Posted on Prmanagement Charlie-KayeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked closely with Oliver on a double extension. From start to finish he was incredibly knowledgable, helpful and understanding when our vision changed at times helping to create a unique design. He was available whenever needed which left us feeling very supported through the process . Thank you Oliver, you have helped to make our house into our dream home! Well.. once complete!Posted on Fiona MutterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with Grant and the Team at CBB Architects!Posted on Peter BhagatTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very pleased with the service from CBB. They were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We were asking for planning permission for some outbuildings in a village near Huntingdon. The local authority needed some extra paperwork and surveys, but the architect at CBB managed them very well and smoothed the path through. (Sounds robotic but I am a real person!).Posted on robert stringerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clear and timely communications /advice. We ended completely changing our project after Grant gave his viewpoint on our plan (Thankfully) A clear mastery of the Forces needed to negotiate the challenges of entering the planning Portal.Posted on Daniel BrandTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Cameron Brookes Architects. Friendly and professional service. My planning permission was secured within six weeks !

We ensure we design for functionality, spaces are not just beautiful but also practical for both guests and staff. This includes optimizing guest flow, designing functional room layouts, and ensuring efficient back-of-house operations.Â
The perfect blending of aesthetics and operations is essential when designing any hotel: The design must balance a visually appealing and branded identity with the practical needs of the hotel’s operation. This means a design should both look good and work well for the business. Integrating modern needs is essential and as modern hotel architects we must incorporate current trends and needs, such as seamlessly integrating technology for amenities like automated check-in and energy management, and focusing on sustainability and safety.Â
Our hotel designs work goes beyond basic structure to create functional and aesthetically pleasing environments that enhance the guest experience, support the brand, and are operationally efficient. This involves designing everything from the exterior and public spaces like the lobby to the interior layouts of guest rooms, while also considering modern elements like technology integration and sustainability.
