Travelodge already has six venues across Bristol - but now the company wants to open a new one. The hotel chain has written to Bristol City Council to propose a 'joint development partnership'.
The city currently has six Travelodge hotels with a seventh under construction, but the chain wants to bring another to either the city centre or Bristol South. The proposed new hotel is expected to bring around 25 extra jobs to the region.
In the letter sent to the council, Travelodge explains the ‘pivotal role’ the company has played over the last 10 years. UK-wide, the company hopes to open 300 more hotels, which would create 9,000 new jobs.
