The UK’s first budget hotel chain has officially opened Travelodge Rotherham Central, the group’s first hotel in this city and Rotherham’s first branded hotel.
Travelodge Rotherham Central features 69 rooms, an upgraded Bar Café which offers an all-day dining service, as well as light bites and an extensively stocked bar.
It is part of Forge Island, a major urban regeneration project, in a waterside setting, which also includes a cinema, restaurants and leisure businesses. Travelodge is the only hotel provider in the town.
This property has been developed to Travelodge’s new premium design, which includes a redesigned reception, next-generation rooms, and a number of sustainable building features. It has a BREEAM Very Good rating and an Energy Performance Certificate rating of B, and includes a number of sustainable features such as PV cells on the roof as well as EV car charging points in the car park.
We are delighted to announce that our first hotel in Rotherham has now opened its doors. With its new premium design and great location, I have no doubt that our hotel in Rotherham will be a strong addition to the area. Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council is doing a great job in investing to regenerate the town centre. Its funding support has enabled the delivery of this development, at a time when private sector funding is in very scarce supply. Forge Island is a great addition to the town centre and will support the existing shops and attractions, such as Rotherham United’s AESSEAL New York stadium, so there is plenty for Travelodge’s business and leisure customers to enjoy.
