Client project.... Suite layouts

Right.... The brief for this competition states that the IHG hotel group would like entrants to create concepts for the hotel room of the future. The brief goes on to outline the fact that the room needs to cater for various different user groups, such as families or business groups. However after this it gets a little vague. So using this to my advantage I have decided to go for a hotel suite rather than just a single room, thus allowing greater creative potential as well as allowing me to provide a much more "meaty" final product. 
I am looking to keep the suite open plan, with as few doors as possible, thus in keeping with the idea of it being a singular room, albeit a very loose interpretation of a single room. It will contain at least two bedrooms, a communal area, all the normal amenities, such as shower, toilet etc, and a plethora of technology designed to make the stay more comfortable. 

With these ideas in mind I have started looking at different hotel suite layouts that already exist. The two pictures shown are two of my favourite I have found so far, though neither has all the elements I want in my final design. However as a starting point they are useful and easily adaptable to my own design ideas.
