Dublin-based Staycity has announced it is to open 202 serviced apartments at Liverpool’s Corn Exchange building.
The serviced apartment operator said it has signed a long-term lease on the former office building, which is located close to James Street Merseyrail Station, Albert Docks, BT Convention Centre and retail and leisure development Liverpool One.
The property, which will feature one and two bedroom apartments, is expected to create some 40 full-time jobs and will open towards the end of 2017.
In line with Staycity’s latest openings, the premises will feature an open-plan seating area where guests can work or eat, guest laundry room, fitness room, 24-hour reception, complimentary Wi-Fi and 53 parking spaces.
Tom Walsh, CEO, said: “The Corn Exchange is an exciting project for us as its such a well-known building in a thriving area of the city.
“Our European expansion will take us to 10,000 apartments by the end of 2021 but its important that we also have a strong foothold in the UKs major cities. Liverpool gives us a fantastic mix of leisure and corporate guests with a proven demand for aparthotels.”
