Developers want to knock down a city centre hotel and build what could be Bristol’s tallest building in its place.
The plans would see the Premier Inn, which overlooks the Bearpit on the Haymarket, demolished and two tower blocks built in its place.
One of the buildings would be 18-storeys and house 136 people in a ‘co-living’ set-up, while the other would be a 28-storey building housing 445 students. The current tallest residential building in Bristol is the 26-storey Castle Park View, although a 33-storey building has been proposed to be built next door.
