Hilton Will Flag Airport Hotel in Newcastle

This autumn a hotel in Newcastle Airport will finally start operating. The managing company is also known – this is going to be DoubleTree brand by Hilton.

The hotel was to open a couple of years ago. However, in 2009 the building was stopped due to problems with the hotel’s developer, Rockstock Investments. The building stood unfinished for 30 months and only then the building continued. This became possible only when Cairn Hotel Group acquired the hotel.

Hilton has revealed its plans concerning this hotel in Newcastle Airport. It will operate under the DoubleTree brand and will have 179 guestrooms. On the territory of the hotel will be also located a business center with 11 guestrooms, a fitness center, a bar, and a restaurant.

Newcastle Airport is one of the most heavy traffic airports of the UK. Each year around 5 million of passengers travel through it. Hilton representatives hope the hotel will gain sufficient popularity due to such an advantageous location.

Currently Hilton operates over 250 DoubleTree hotels and resorts around the world and only 8 hotels are located in the UK. This project will help to increase the company’s presence in North East England and provide guests with famous high quality and hospitality.

DoubleTree hotel in Newcastle Airport will be the 9th property by this brand in the UK. The 250th property is soon to open and this is going to be a DoubleTree by Hilton hotel in Istanbul.
