Hospitality operator Bob W has agreed a long-term lease agreement with Bloom Street Hotel for a new 83-unit aparthotel in Manchester city centre.
The new-build development, which is located at Bloom Street, will transform a former ground level car park into Bob W Manchester City Centre, which is scheduled to open in Summer 2027.
The 2,400 sq m (circa 26,000 sq ft) aparthotel will comprise 83 self-contained studio apartments alongside shared amenities including a lobby lounge, ‘washateria’ and luggage storage. Construction has already commenced.
Philip Grace, chief development officer at Bob W, said: “Manchester is one of the UK’s most dynamic and fast-growing cities, with strong demand from both business and leisure travellers. Securing a prime city centre site for a ground-up development is an exciting milestone for us as we continue to scale our presence across Europe and the UK.
“This project reflects the range of what Bob W can deliver, from repositioning existing buildings to bringing new developments to life from the ground up. We look forward to working closely with our partners to create a property that meets the expectations of modern travellers.”
