Dakota Hotels has submitted a planning application for a new 154-bedroom hotel at Manchester Airport.
Designed by KPP Architects, the new hotel, which will form part of the MIX MANCHESTER development, will offer a destination bar and brasserie-style grill, 130 car parking spaces and an airport terminal shuttle.
Andrew Ovenstone, managing director of Dakota Hotels, said: “This is a significant moment for Dakota Hotels and this airport expansion marks an exciting time for our team and guests alike. With routes covering four continents of the world and increasing numbers of passengers and flights year on year, Manchester Airport is a fast-growing global gateway to the North.
“We are looking forward to being part of the journey for the 28 million travellers that come through their doors – bringing our unique brand of luxury hospitality to the airport hotel market.”
Subject to planning consent, the company hopes to open the new hotel in 2026.
