Midland Hotel will need to make sure that they have a
large area for the building of the hotel and the will also
need to make sure that they have enough rooms within the

back or want people to visit the hotel. The hotel will need
to have a car park so the staff and the guests at the hotel
will be able to park their cars near the hotel. The external
facilities would be the cameras around the hotel to ensure
that all parts of the building from the outside are being
recorded for safety and security issues. Another external
facility would be the lights that are outside the building
the lights would be used in the car park so at night the
guests are able to see where they are parking and also
another reason for why lights would be needed is because
if there are cameras and there are no lights then nothing
would be visible when recording so therefore lights would
be needed. The different facilities within the hotel are
the bar where the guest can have drinks and this is an
internal facility within the hotel. The hotel would have
public toilets which would be on the ground floor of the
hotel and this would include toilets for both female and

to stay and the rooms will be needed for different reasons
too. For example a room will be needed for the spa that

and pamper themselves and relax. Rooms will also be
needed for the eating areas within the hotel and this will
allow the guests of the hotel to sit and eat. Rooms will be
