Expansion for Travelodge in the UK

Travelodge, which claims to be the UK’s fastest growing hotel company, is to build 35 new hotels (3,667 rooms) this year boosting the company’s estate to 495 hotels and 35,841 hotels.  It has also announced an increase in its growth targets and plans to operate 1,100 hotels totalling 100,000 rooms by 2025. 

Over half of the Travelodge hotels being built this year are situated in major UK cities.  There are eight hotels being built in London, with three opening this year – this will mean Travelodge will become the largest single hotel brand in the capital this spring.

Three hotels are under development in Birmingham, one at the NEC and two city centre locations (Carrs Lane and Bullring).  In Manchester Travelodge is opening at the MEN arena and at the University.  There are also city centre hotel openings in: Bristol, Cambridge, Canterbury, Cardiff, Hull, Lancaster and Liverpool.

Under construction is a new Travelodge in Valencia (Spain) offering 116 rooms and sited close by the airport.  The company is known to be considering the construction of two new additional hotels in Barcelona and Seville. www.travelodge.co.uk
