Rezidor opens new hotel in Rotherham

The Rezidor Hotel Group has announced the addition of its latest new hotel to its portfolio, the Park Inn in Rotherham.

"The addition of Park Inn Rotherham to our portfolio means that we have opened 35 new hotels and over 7,000 hotel rooms so far in 2009. This is our 88th Park Inn hotel, and we have additional 47 hotels under construction," said Renu Snehi, Director Corporate Communication in The Rezidor Hotel Group.

The new Park Inn hotel in Rotherham is right on the city's main business, in a city that is home to several of Britain's biggest companies and industries.

Rotherham is a town that has blossomed in recent years, with a variety of bars, outdoor cafes, shops and a theater here. The city is located only 10km from Sheffield and 85km from Manchester Airport, in the Yorkshire area.

The new hotel is perfect for those looking for some action into their holiday. Nearby lies the exclusive Express Park extreme sports center, providing opportunities for adventure sports experiences and makes the hotel a perfect venue for meetings and conferences with common experiences or team-building as part of the journey.

The hotel can accommodate four flexible meeting rooms, with a total conference area of 204sqm. All meeting rooms are equipped with the latest audiovisual equipment, in addition to high-speed internet access. The hotel also has a 60sqm reception area and good parking facilities.

For days with a little extra time, the Park Inn Rotherham also has a state of the art fitness center and spa facility, with sauna and steam bath.
