The 21 UK properties previously operated by Spanish chain Barceló, which has pulled out of the UK, will now be known as the Puma Hotels’ Collection.
The 4-star chain includes the Marine Hotel Troon, Carlton Hotel Edinburgh, Lygon Arms Broadway, Hinckley Island Hotel (M69) and Cheltenham Park Hotel.
Jane Rawlinson, Head of Marketing and e-Commerce, Puma Hotels Plc said: “In such an exciting year for British tourism, we are delighted to have successfully launched new British hotel group Puma Hotels’ Collection, following the smooth handover from Barceló UK.
“The new brand will focus on the unique characteristics and location of each hotel, whether through the local cuisine, the grounds (particularly in the case of the flagship countryside properties), or the nearby facilities and attractions.”
The 21 hotels offer more than 2,800 bedrooms and around 20,000sqm of conference and meeting space.
As part of its launch, Puma has announced that from 1 May all of the properties will offer complimentary wi-fi access, “in direct response to customer demand.” www.pumahotels.co.uk
