Accessibility

Accessibility is both a legal requirement and a growing commercial priority for UK hoteliers, with millions of potential guests living with disabilities and the ‘purple pound’ representing significant untapped value. Our coverage explores accessible hotel design, from step-free access and roll-in showers to inclusive technologies and best-in-class staff training. We report on regulatory standards, such as the Equality Act 2010 and Building Regulations Part M, as well as highlight case studies and innovations that help hotel professionals improve inclusivity and guest experience.
