Sitwell Arms Hotel to see ‘major upgrade’ following £1m funding

In this episode we speak to brothers Alex and Adrien Grosjean, young entrepreneurs who have recently acquired The Residence Inn by Marriott Manchester Piccadilly. We discussed the reasons why Manchester’s visitor market is booming, and their decision to invest in this area, why they see extended-stay accommodation as a major opportunity in what is one of the UK's fastest-growing cities, how they plan to enhance their portfolio of hotels, and their advice for the next generation of hospitality disruptors.

The Sitwell Arms Hotel in Eckington is set to undergo a “major upgrade” after receiving more than £1m in funding from Cambridge and Counties Bank.

The work will include an expanded public lounge, accommodation updates, large maintenance projects, and upgraded wedding and events capabilities.

A separate house adjacent to the hotel will also be renovated and rented out.

Jo-Anne Oldfield, owner, said: “We passionately believe the Sitwell Arms offers a wonderful experience to all types of guests and we’re truly excited by our upgrade programme. Opportunities and requirements continue to evolve post-pandemic, so we have invested to ensure we are delivering the best possible experience at fantastic value.”

The Sitwell Arms Hotel is a Grade II listed building with an original core dating back to the 18th Century.

The 30-room hotel, which used to be a coaching inn, caters for a wide range of clientele, including tourists visiting the Peak District.
