Four Welsh inns become members of Great Inns of Britain

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.

Four Welsh inns have officially become members of the small marketing consortium Great Inns of Britain. 

The Castle hotel in Conwy, The Bear hotel in Crickhowell, the West Arms in Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceirog and Wolfscastle Country House hotel in Haverfordwest have joined the group.

Membership to the consortium, which now has a total of 20 members including historic inns and small hotels, is by invitation only from existing members.

Simon Heaton, owner of Shibden Mill Inn and chairman of the consortium, said: “The Great Inns of Britain is delighted to announce four more new members for 2015, all of which are of an exceptionally high standard and come with big reputations – they’re great additions to the Great Inns collection.”

Great Inns of Britain was established in 1996 by Thomas Ingilby, owner of The Boar’s Head in Ripley, North Yorkshire, and the late Paul Whittome, who was the owner of The Hoste Arms at Burnham Market, Norfolk.
