Holiday Inn Northampton West, part of the Splendid Hospitality Group, has been transformed and revitalised thanks to a £2million makeover. The hotel, located just a 2-minute drive from the M1, now boasts 66 newly decorated rooms and a stunning Open Lobby design in the hotel’s reception area.
Mike Greenup, Vice President Brand Management, for Holiday Inn, said: “The Open Lobby was created following research that revealed business travellers prefer one cohesive space where they can do everything. The area is designed to be a flexible environment where guests can eat, drink, work, relax, socialise and have fun. We’re really looking forward to seeing the Open Lobby at Holiday Inn Northampton West become a popular hub for guests whether they’re on the trip of a lifetime, a family vacation or visiting Northampton for business.”
Seb Waring, General Manager at Holiday Inn Northampton West, said: “We are thrilled with the makeover and so excited for guests to see what we’ve done. Our aim was to create a home from home for all our guests. The new open lobby is an incredible space, it’s no longer just somewhere for arrivals and departures but is a comfortable, colourful and vibrant place for guests to spend their time.”
All bedrooms, including the 13 additional rooms, have been upgraded to the highest standards. A new colour scheme and feature wall has been introduced to give rooms a brighter and fresher look and all rooms now feature updated en-suite bathrooms with power showers.
Guests can enjoy home comforts like high speed internet, a selection of Freeview TV channels and a choice of firm or soft pillows in the spacious rooms.
The new lobby also features a Starbucks To Go Café serving guests their favourite fair-trade coffee, teas, hot chocolate and iced drinks.
