A luxury hotel in the city centre is opening its doors for members of the community to work from as part of a warm space initiative to help people during the cost of living crisis.
The Kimpton Clocktower Hotel on Oxford Street has today launched a ‘Warm Workspaces’ project to help people facing increased energy bills as they work from home.
The scheme will allow people to book a free space within the hotel’s meeting and events spaces, which will include complimentary hot desk facilities, WiFi, and a hot drink. There will be no requirement to purchase food or drink from the hotel whilst using the workspace.
The Warm Workspace will be available to book as part of a five-hour slot on a number of days throughout January and February and will continue to operate throughout the winter months.
The Manchester hotel will also extend its support to its employees by ensuring all staff have access to at least two hot meals a day from the hotel’s staff canteen if required.
Johan Scheepers, General Manager of Kimpton Clocktower Hotel, said: “Heartfelt human connections are at the centre of everything we do at Kimpton and we believe they can make peoples’ lives better; we care for our employees, guests and the local community around us.
“It is of the upmost importance to us to do what we can to help everybody through the current energy crisis – so we’d like to extend our welcome to people working from home who are worried about their bills, to enjoy a change of environment in our new dedicated warm workspaces”.
The scheme is also being rolled out at three other Kimpton venues across the country, with Kimpton Fitzroy London, Kimpton Blythswood Square in Glasgow and Kimpton Charlotte Square in Edinburgh all taking part.
