We discuss why 2026 may be seen as a pivotal year for boutique hotels, unpack the rise of global nomadism and how this is shaping demand and trends across hospitality, and how a strong team and clear, consistent messaging and offerings are key to securing investment.

The independently-owned Barton Grange hotel has scooped the ‘Hotel of the Year’ award at an annual Lancashire business awards ceremony.

Celebrating the ‘best in Lancashire’, 21 trophies were presented at the annual Downtown Business Lancashire Awards with the 51-bedroom, four-star, Barton Grange beating off competition in the hotel sector to win the award.

Daniel Rich, the hotel’s general manager, commented that the company was “thrilled” to have won the award.

He said: “The team has worked really hard all year to deliver the highest standards of Lancashire hospitality, whilst undergoing a refurbishment of guestrooms and meeting spaces.

“We have lots more hotel developments and additional refurbishment planned for later this year too, so this award is really a testament to the team’s ongoing dedication and passion for being the best Hotel in Lancashire.”

Frank McKenna, chief executive at Downtown in Business, said: ‘Congratulations to all the winners and nominees who attended the awards last night. It’s fantastic to celebrate the hard working companies in Lancashire each year and see the level of support they have for each other.”
