Radisson Hotel Group has reaffirmed its commitment to Manchester Airport by extending its lease agreement with Union Investment for the Radisson Blu Hotel until the end of 2035. The agreement includes an option for both parties to extend the lease by an additional ten years, potentially prolonging the partnership until 2045.
The Radisson Blu Hotel, strategically located with direct access to the airport terminals, offers 352 rooms and eight exclusive suites. It is the only hotel at the airport providing such convenience, enhancing its appeal to travellers. The hotel also boasts 170 outdoor parking spaces, 27 meeting rooms accommodating up to 400 guests, and a restaurant with views of the airport.
Manchester Airport, the UK's third-largest, is projected to handle over 32 million passengers by 2025, with expectations to reach approximately 40 million by 2030. This growth is supported by new long-haul routes to South and East Asia. Thorsten Purkus, Head of Asset Management Hospitality at Union Investment, highlighted the airport's ongoing £1.3 billion transformation programme, which includes a second terminal, as a key factor in the hotel's advantageous position.
Jens Brandin, Cluster General Manager of Radisson Blu Hotel, expressed pride in continuing the partnership with Union Investment, emphasising the hotel's unique location and commitment to hospitality excellence.
This extended lease ensures that Radisson Blu Hotel remains a pivotal part of Manchester Airport's infrastructure, poised to benefit from the airport's expansion and increased passenger traffic.
