After being a pillar of the community for nearly 200 years, the original Log Cabin Hotel burnt down in 2012. From the desire to restore this host to the region comes the newly refurbished Log Cabin Hotel.
The replacement hotel spans two floors, has four bars, private function spaces and a fine dining destination. As well as this, gaming rooms and the sports bar compliment the main bar and bistro. State of the art kitchens are designed to maximise operational efficiency, capable of producing up to 3,000 covers a day.
Surrounding the site on three sides are the Yandhai pedestrian bridge, the Nepean River, the old highway, and high voltage power lines. Due to this accessibility was a serious consideration.
Activities had to be very well coordinated to account for the space, complex approvals for safety and compliance for working next to the high voltage lines were achieved, and flood stability was also addressed with innovative structural solutions.
As a modern building, Covid design principles for separation and ventilation were included in the design.
The exceptional high-quality finishes, detailing and fitout are a credit to the builder and their sub- contractors.
The Log Cabin represents a modern high-end example of future hospitality design. The Penrith community will enjoy this facility for years to come.
