The stunning hotel comprises of 130 bedrooms, a fitness room, business work zone, reception area and restaurant/bar – and is now playing an important role in attracting both business and leisure visitors to the area and providing much needed job opportunities.

Hilton award – Fastest Ramp Up Hotel for HiltonThe Hilton Group recently recognised the Hampton by Hilton Blackpool as being the fastest growing new hotel of 2018 in Europe – having ramped up their visitor numbers, in the first three months, more quickly than any other hotel in the group. This recognition demonstrates both the opportunity that existed in the area for corporate business, as well as the leisure trade – and the fantastic work by the hotel’s team to attract new customers.

Interstate Hotels & Resorts Award – Rising Star Winner: Stacey deRome, sales manager – Hampton by Hilton Blackpool Stacey was recognised by the hotel’s management company Interstate Hotels & Resorts as the Rising Star for 2018 due to her contribution towards building relationships in the town and with the Hilton brand, contributing to the amazing success of the new hotel.

Stacey commented: “I am thrilled with the win. It is great to be a part of a team offering accommodation for both corporate clients and leisure guests. My favourite part of the job is building relationships with our customers. We pride ourselves on offering all guests an enjoyable and memorable experience, ensuring that they return to our hotel time and time again.”

Gill Mathison, director and owner commented: “I am so proud of Stacey and our team at the hotel for these well-deserved accolades! They have all worked exceptionally hard – resulting in an outstanding number of customers. This success has exceeded all our expectations and we are now more confident than ever that this hotel will continue to attract more visitors to the area.”

After the successful completion of their first hotel for the brand, Create Construction is currently in the process of building a second Hampton By Hilton hotel in Sharp Street, Manchester – which is due for completion early 2020.

The hotel was recently voted Hotel of the Week by the Sunday Mirror.
