The Deckers Hospitality Group has announced it is in the final planning stages of a £750,000 refurbishment to The Royal Toby Hotel in Rochdale

The refurbishment project will begin this month, and is set to be completed by November 2020.

The investment will go towards upgrading the site’s 53 rooms, bringing a “world of luxurious new, bespoke furniture and design” to the hotel. 

The project will be led by interior design company Tinsley Wood, who previously refurbished the site’s function venue, The Rhyddings Suite, back in 2019, as well as the hotel’s bar and restaurant in early 2017. 

Robert Walker, retail director, said: “The refurbishment of the hotel is long overdue and by far one of the biggest projects we have planned for the site. 

“We are very proud to have The Royal Toby Hotel in the Deckers portfolio and invest the time and money into making it the number one place to stay, dine and celebrate in the Rochdale area.” 

Clare Poole, deputy general manager, added: “This has been an exciting project that myself and colleagues have had the pleasure to get involved with. I’m very pleased with the proposed designs that the design team have come up with. 

“The refurbishment helps to secure the future of the hotel by allowing us to showcase the beauty that we have to offer to return and future guests.”
