In het hart van Leeuwarden bevindt zich Hotel & Grand Café Post-Plaza, een voormalig post- en telegraafkantoor aan de Tweebaksmarkt. Dit rijksmonument is getransformeerd tot een sfeervol grand café en hotel met 42 kamers. Bij veel aspecten van dit project zijn we betrokken geweest. Zo hebben we niet alleen het ontwerp gemaakt en de vergunningprocedure doorlopen maar hebben we ook subsidies aangevraagd voor zowel restauratie als herbestemming. Na het verzorgen en begeleiden van de aanbestedingsprocedure zijn we tijdens de uitvoering nauw betrokken gebleven en hebben we het bouwtoezicht en de directievoering op ons genomen.

We wilden graag de mensen vanuit de stad weer in het oude postkantoor halen. Als hotel lopen we goed – daarom hebben we ook behoefte aan extra kamers – maar de Leeuwarders en de dagjesmensen moeten ons ook weten te vinden.

Diverse herstelwerkzaamheden hebben de gevel teruggebracht naar zijn oorspronkelijke staat.

Van postkantoor naar hotel

De historische waarden van het gebouw zijn leidend geweest voor het ontwerp. Op de begane grond zijn weinig bouwkundige ingrepen gepleegd. De sfeer van het postkantoor met zijn enorm hoge zaal siert zich als vanouds met de troggewelven, pilaren, pijlers en gepleisterde wanden.

Op de begane grond zijn een grand café en keuken ontworpen. Een grote bar in het midden schikt zich naar de vorm van de zaal en wanneer je omhoog kijkt zie je een van de meest waardevolle stijlkenmerken van het pand: de kap van de zaal.

De eerste verdieping van het voormalige postkantoor is grondig aangepakt en biedt ruimte aan 42 hotelkamers. Twee luchtbruggen verbinden het gebouw met het bestaande hotelpand en vormen samen het geheel.

Een grote bar in het midden schikt zich naar de vorm van de zaal en wanneer je omhoog kijkt zie je een een van de meest waardevolle stijlkenmerken van het pand de kapconstructie met ajourwerk.
