Rezidor to open a new Park Inn Hotel in Manchester

The Rezidor Hotel Group further extends the fast growing Park Inn portfolio in the UK: Shortly after announcing the Park Inn Glasgow City Centre, the company has now signed a contract to open the Park Inn Manchester in Q3 2009 – featuring 252 guest rooms. Between 2007 and 2009, Rezidor will open 20.000 new rooms in total.

The Park Inn Manchester benefits from excellent visibility, and fronts Cheetham Hill Road – one of the main axis leading out of Manchester to the motorway network to the north and east of the country. Located within Crosby Homes’ award winning Greenquarter Development, the Park Inn site is adjacent to the second biggest gateway junction to Manchester, with approximately 260.000 traffic movements a week. The new hotel will be opposite the Manchester Evening News Arena, close to the local retail district and the Commonwealth Games Velodrome. Services of the Park Inn will comprise a restaurant, a bar, conference- & meeting rooms, leisure- & spa facilities.

“Manchester is an important and strategic location in the north-west of the UK”, comments Kurt Ritter, President & CEO of The Rezidor Hotel Group. “The city’s development during the last ten years has been outstanding – in 2003, Manchester even was awarded for the best structural change of a European city by the European Union.”
