Yorkshire developers Roomzzz invest £3 million in new hotel

Yorkshire hotelier brand Roomzzz Aparthotel have recently acquired their ninth site with the purchase of The Welbeck Hotel in Nottingham, out of administration.

Roomzzz Aparthotel are currently operating The Welbeck Hotel prior to a £3 million refurbishment which will commence in January 2015.

The 96 bedroom hotel was bought out of administration in July 2014 and will be eventually transformed into Roomzzz Nottingham City.

The new £3 million scheme will feature individual apartments, complete with kitchens and living areas in keeping with core brand values.

Mark Walton head of Roomzzz Aparthotel UK said: “The heritage of the Welbeck Hotel is an important one in the Nottingham area.

“We are pleased to have been able to preserve the building’s use for accommodation and look forward to reviving the building and consequently the area through our refurbishment.

“Walton continues ‘Nottingham is a key area for us - we have been seeking out an opportunity to plug a gap in the marketplace in this area and with this are pleased to raise the bar on Nottingham’s accommodation offering as a premier but affordable alternative to hotels with this site.

“We are confident that Roomzzz Nottingham City will boost Nottingham’s economy in terms of the calibre of professional and long stay guests Roomzzz Aparthotel attracts.”

The purchase of the Welbeck Hotel site brings the Roomzzz City count to seven with nine proprieties in total. In 2015 Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle will be joined by Chester, Nottingham, London and Liverpool. Roomzzz Nottingham City is scheduled to open at the beginning of 2015.
