The UberLux Hotel; A 60 Room Modern Castle

[JordanZimm]

This is a project I have put quite a bit of time into over the last week. It is a very large hotel, designed with a castle in mind but I wanted it to be more modern looking so it is going to be a hotel instead. This hotel features a bar, kitchen, and dining room on ground level. A pool(swimming) room, portal room, small arena, and bedrock lined vault can be found in the hotel's lower level. The first and second levels are very spacious, and lounge areas may be found on the second. The actual rooms begin on the third floor, of which there are 20. There is a grassy courtyard at the top of the stairs leading to the third floor which features railings looking into all above floors and capped with a large glass rotunda at roof level. The third floor hallways also have entrances to the hotel's four balconies. The fourth floor contains 8 larger rooms(with hot tubs ), and features large windows, open hallways, and fire-pit lounge areas. The fifth floor contains 8 even larger rooms. The sixth floor contains 12 rooms of varying size; 4 are very large, and 8 are about 2/3 as large but have adjoining hallways with their own doors. Roof level is almost all garden, with several trees, brick walkways, edge facing sitting areas, and full view of the glass rotunda.

NOTES:

-The vault was designed in mind for an SMP server running the plugin LWC, so that the doors can be locked. The doors are the ONLY holes in the solid bedrock box.

-One of the four rooms on ground level doesn't have anything, as it is used as a shop area on my server and not everyone uses shops or even servers.

-The tables built in this hotel are pressure-plates on top of fences. I did this with a plugin called 'Tables'(big suprise) but I can confirm that these tables WILL NOT break if this hotel is loaded in SSP or servers without Tables, however if you break them you can't fix them without the plugin. (if you have WorldEdit or MCEdit you can just copy another table though)

-Other than the lounge areas, the hotel is relatively unfurnished. I will post a schematic for a more furnished hotel(or with a complete shop area) if you guys ask.

-I am HAPPY to receive criticism(constructive preferably) about my building, so I can change the design or to point out any oversights of mine.

-If you use this on a public server I would appreciate credit.

-Also, I would love a comment if you download

I may post a few after I get back from a trip today, got a lot of work done on it last night though so it is definitely approaching completion.

bump >:D

I really would like a comment though if you guys notice something wrong with the schematic, I'm always open for constructive criticism :P

[RuvinRice]

I think that you should change the material of it, instead of it made out of stone. Stone has a very dull grey colour that does not make it look interesting. Many good modern houses have very interesting and contrasting colours in them and I think that you should include this is your castle. And nice first schematic btw

[JordanZimm]

Ty for the advice, I'll take experiment with more materials and repost if I find something that looks good

[Nefashu]

Looks really good
But I have a question, on the pisc I see grass there,
how can add grass to my inventory`?
If I do this with SPC I get only something gray, but I really
want this 'green grass' >.|

[JordanZimm]

Oh, that one took me the longest time to figure out XD Just use bonemeal on grass blocks and the tall grass and the occasional flower will grow in a rough 3-5 block radius.

EDIT: Took another look at your post, did you actually want the grass blocks instead of the tall grass? Sadly you cannot get tall grass in your inventory even with item spawning. However the ID for grassy dirt blocks is 2 if it helps.

Yeah nef, I've tried that. A lot. You can copy and paste it with worldedit, but hats about it I think...

Painful isn't it, tall grass has three data values and all of them are dead shrubs >.>

nice, you need to get the builder award for this.
whatever, +1 rep. for you
