Travelodge’s first hotel in Weston-super-Mare has officially opened for business.
Weston-super-Mare Travelodge, the company’s 526th hotel, is an 84-room hotel with a Bar Café. The hotel represents an investment value of £6.5 million and has created 22 new jobs.
Located on Beaufighter Road next to the Weston Business Quarter, the hotel is ideally located to serve leisure and business customers.
The hotel features the company’s new contemporary design throughout. All rooms feature the new bespoke, luxurious king-size Travelodge Dreamer bed. In addition individual beds have been introduced for children in all family rooms. The hotel reception and Bar Café area are also designed in the company’s brand new look.
Travelodge recently completed a three-year £100 million modernisation programme across all of its UK hotels.
Travelodge currently operates six hotels across Somerset and to meet the rising demand from business and leisure customers for good value accommodation, Travelodge has embarked on an expansion drive to open a further 250 hotels across the UK.
This proposed Somerset expansion programme is expected to represent a total investment value of £20 million and will create 75 new jobs.
Jon Hendry Pickup, Travelodge Chief Operating Officer said: “Whilst this is our sixth hotel in Somerset, we’re definitely not finished here. With increased demand for good value and quality accommodation across the county there is still huge potential for Travelodge to grow further. We are looking to open another four hotels in the county, which will create 75 new jobs for people in Somerset.”
