Travelodge looking for a new hotel site in Rochdale

Date published: 30 September 2016


Travelodge is looking for seven new hotel sites across Greater Manchester and Rochdale is one of the seven chosen locations.

The other six locations include: Cheadle, Oldham, Wigan, Worsley/ Swinton and two sites in Manchester City Centre. These new additions will boost Travelodge’s portfolio in the county from 18 hotels to 25, and will create 200 new jobs in total.

Nichola Stevens, Travelodge Regional Director said: “The Greater Manchester economy is growing at pace and our new office conversion hotel in Sale, adds a great value option for visiting business and leisure travellers. We now operate 18 hotels across the county but with increasing visitor numbers to the area, there is still a shortage of good quality accommodation at a great value price. Therefore to meet this growing consumer demand we are looking for new hotel sites in: Manchester city centre (2), Cheadle, Oldham, Rochdale, Wigan and Worsley/Swinton. These new hotel openings will create around 200 new jobs."

“This expansion is also great news for the local economy too, as our research shows that annually Travelodge customers will spend over £2 million with local businesses during their stay with us.”

Travelodge has also invested £2.5 million upgrading its existing hotels across the county in its new contemporary brand design. This includes a new modern room design and replacing all beds with the luxury king-size Travelodge Dreamer bed. In addition all family rooms now offer individual beds for children.
