MARSTON HOTELS LAUNCHES £22 MILLION ‘HIP’ HOTEL – THE NOTTINGHAM BELFRY
Tuesday 21st February 2006
Stand B210, International Confex, Earls Court, 21-23 February
Marston Hotels is showcasing its stunning new hotel, The Nottingham Belfry, at this year’s International Confex. The 120-bedroom property opened on 1 February and Marston Hotels is offering special conference rates to help celebrate the launch.
The luxury 4-star Nottingham Belfry had taken more than £1.5 million worth of advance bookings ahead of its launch. Among those quick to take advantage of the East Midlands’ hippest and most stylish new hotel is the Nottingham Convention Bureau, which has chosen The Nottingham Belfry to host delegates attending the Nottinghamshire Venue Show in March.
Marston Hotels director John Cotter said: ‘Reaction to The Nottingham Belfry has been fantastic. Even during construction, we were inundated with enquiries from the corporate sector keen to find out more – proof that there is considerable pent-up demand for a conference hotel of this calibre in the area.
The Nottingham Belfry represents a £22m investment by Marston Hotels and is part of a massive expansion programme planned by the group. Conveniently located between Junction 26 of the M1 and Nottingham city centre, the hotel offers ample free parking, extensive, flexible, self-contained conference and banqueting facilities capable of accommodating up to 320 delegates, plus FREE wireless broadband access throughout – good news for business guests keen to keep in touch while on the move.
The hotel’s 120 bedrooms, which include a choice of executive rooms and air-conditioned suites, have bathrooms with separate showers, flat-screen plasma TVs and the latest in-fast computer solutions. The hotel’s Reflections Spa and Leisure Club offers a swimming pool, gym, spa, steam room and sauna, aerobics studio and six treatment rooms. Delegates can also enjoy fine dining in the ultra-modern Lawrence Restaurant or The Oaks Brasserie, or relax over a drink in the hip Chatterley’s bar (pictured on p1).
The Nottingham Belfry is situated in Mellor’s Way, Nottingham Business Park.
