Budget easyHotel seeks new UK locations
Budget hotel group easyHotel is ‘actively’ pursuing potential UK sites for future openings.
The owner, developer, operator and franchisor of the ‘super budget’ easyHotel brand issued a trading update today for the four months to the end of January.
It said trading is in line with management’s expectations in both its owned and franchised hotels ‘notwithstanding that December and January are traditionally quieter trading months for most of its hotels’.
According to the trading update, its 103-bedroom owned hotel in Croydon, which opened in November 2014, was profitable in its first full month of trading.
Its 132-bedroom franchised hotel, which opened earlier this month in the centre of Frankfurt, is ‘seeing healthy demand’.
