Meininger Hotels has today signed a contract for a new hotel in Liverpool, reinforcing its aim for further growth in the UK.
The property will be the group’s second hotel in the UK after the opening of the Meininger Hotel London Hyde Park in 2006, and will be located on Union Court, right in the heart of the city.
A Meininger Hotel Manchester is also underway and is expected to open at the end of 2021.
Thomas Hagemann, COO of Meininger Hotels, said: “Our new hotel property in Liverpool is an existing building that will be converted into a typical Meininger Hotel according by spring 2021.
“On a gross floor area of 36,049 sq ft (3,349 sq m), the result will be a state-of-the-art accommodation with 87 rooms and 277 beds spread over six floors, a lobby, reception, guest kitchen, bar, lounge, game zone as well as a breakfast area and luggage room.”
Hannes Spanring, CEO of Meininger Hotels, added: “There is no doubt that the UK capital is very popular with visitors, and we had a 94% occupancy rate last year at our Hyde Park hotel.
“But the UK is very rich in attractive destinations with enormous development potential elsewhere too. We are therefore delighted to have signed the contract for a new Meininger Hotel in Liverpool.”
