DoubleTree by Hilton Unveils Plan for First Hotel in Liverpool, United Kingdom


 
MCLEAN, Va. – August 9, 2012 – Hilton Worldwide  announced it has signed a franchise agreement with Municipal Annex Limited to open the first DoubleTree by Hilton in Liverpool, U.K.

The 87-room DoubleTree by Hilton Liverpool will join the brand’s rapidly growing portfolio of upscale, full service hotels, including recently added properties in locations such as Leeds, Manchester and London.

Sanguine Hospitality has been named to manage the DoubleTree by Hilton Liverpool on behalf of the property’s owner, Municipal Annex Limited.

“The Liverpool market remains one of the most active development centers in the U.K. for Hilton Worldwide, already home to our upscale Hilton and economy Hampton by Hilton brands,” said Rob Palleschi (top right photo), global head, DoubleTree by Hilton.

“With nearly 60 DoubleTree by Hilton hotels either open or under development, Europe remains a target development market for the brand,” said Patrick Fitzgibbon (lower right photo), senior vice president, development, Europe & Africa, Hilton Worldwide.

The hotel is expected to open in summer 2013 in the city’s former Municipal Annexe (middle  left photo)  on the corner of Sir Thomas and Dale Street. Constructed in 1865, the English Heritage Grade II-listed building will retain much of its original grandeur.  Hotel amenities will include a restaurant, residents’ lounge, spa and swimming pool, as well as conference and events facilities.
