A developer has said it will open two new hotels in Liverpool this summer after an investment of over £11m.
Town Hotels will formally open the £4.2m Duke Street Hotel next month, with the first guests arriving soon after the next phase of lockdown restrictions ease on May 17.
It will then launch the Baltic Triangle’s first hotel in July after investing around £7m into the project.
The 30-bedroom boutique Duke Street Hotel has a "raw, urban design with a luxury finish and ultra-modern facilities", it said.
The firm, which is the hospitality division of property development firm Living Brick, said the Baltic facility on Jamaica Street will include ‘Shoreditch style’ dining facilities and bars, in a nod to the area's similarities with London’s East End.
All of the 58 guest rooms in the former factory and warehouse building will showcase original features complemented by "ultra-modern" in-room facilities.
The hotels were created by Kevin Doran, founder of Living Brick and his business partner, Phil Walsh.
The pair already operate York Street Studios and Chavasse apartments - a portfolio of serviced apartments in the city centre.
