Hotel Developers Turn to Modular Construction to Meet Demand
As demand for hotel rooms increases, modular construction technology is being used to help close the supply gap. Modular construction reduces build times and delivers significant improvements in quality, energy efficiency, noise reduction and cost-effectiveness when compared to the on-site building methods of hotels.
That’s why Building Design + Construction recently featured Guerdon’s The Canyons Lodge & Cabins in Yellowstone National Park as a project that exemplifies the benefits modular technology offers the hospitality industry:
The Modular Building Institute, in its “Permanent Modular Construction 2015 Annual Report,” estimates that modular hotel construction in the U.S. increased by 31% and 25.7%… This summer, Boise, Idaho-based Guerdon Modular Buildings is scheduled to complete the last two of five multi-story buildings for The Canyons Lodge & Cabins, the latest hotel project at Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. When those two buildings open, The Canyons will have 410 guest rooms. Guerdon’s modular technology is allowing The Canyons to meet seasonal challenges, reduce its labor costs and room noise, and achieve LEED Silver certification.
