It is expected that most properties will be open and trading in time for the summer season. As part of this expansion, the group is continuing the roll-out of Travelodge Plus, the group’s ‘budget chic’ hotel format. Launched in 2018, this concept is designed around the needs of the budget traveller who wants that little bit more style and choice with little touches to make it easier to work and relax both inside and outside the room.
This year, the group is opening a further three Travelodge Plus hotels, and boosting its collection to 14 properties in prime locations across the UK. This includes a further two Travelodge Plus hotels in London and the company’s first property in St Albans. Craig Bonnar, Chief Executive, Travelodge said in a statement that after a challenging 12 months, the latest announcement demonstrates the strength in the Travelodge brand and is a key step forward as the country emerges out of lockdown.
He shared that the priority of the company is to officially reopen the remaining hotels in May, welcome the customers back and continue to offer great value but now with even more choice, to build an even bigger and better Travelodge brand. He further added that he is delighted to be able to say that the opening of the new Travelodge hotels across the UK is going to create 360 new jobs in hospitality and support 17 local economies.
