according to this it isn't the hotel but 'near' the hotel, this would make sense as there was alot of rubble in that area. |

The fire started as the contractors were water proofing the roof, the bitumen was being melted with a blow torch, they obviously have not heard of ready made trowelled bitumen.
The centre piece will be cleaned and saved but the whole area is water and smoke damaged need any architects?:D |
