Lamington Group has announced that it is set to open a new room2 hotel in York in 2026.
The property is set to start site development this Summer, and open in early 2026.
The £30m asset will be funded off the group’s balance sheet, and the development will be managed by the in-house team of Lamington Group’s development arm.
The hotel will offer 116 guest rooms, a meeting space, laundry room, gym, and new Winnie’s cafe and bar concept.
It is designed to meet operational and embodied net zero standards in accordance with the UKGBC net zero carbon framework.
Robert Godwin, CEO at Lamington Group, said: “Room2 York will be a fantastic development that we are delighted to be progressing despite challenging economic conditions. In line with our One Living Planet strategy, we are proud to continue the creation of long term environmental and social value for our partners, guests and community.”
Room2 currently has four operational locations, in Southampton, Hammersmith and Chiswick, along with the most recent property, room2 Belfast, which opened in October 2023.
