Christmas guide: Barton Grange Hotel is blooming with added investment

Barton Grange Hotel has certainly not rested on its success in the last few years. Having invested £670,000 in the last three years into upgrading its bedrooms, corridors and main events space - the Barton Suite, the hotel has announced a further £250,000 into upgrades.

Brides and grooms with weddings at the hotel or companies staging a business event can also now take advantage of a newly landscaped ‘wedding’ garden.

Lounge area renovations are also complete. With a warm, contemporary style in mind, the lounge can now accommodate up to 30 guests for morning coffees, pre-dinner cocktails or night-caps, and adds a welcoming space to relax or meet friends at the hotel’s entrance.

The hotel is now expanding its leisure offering, with the addition of a spa treatment services to its current indoor pool and gym. Two new treatment rooms will provide a range of therapeutic, beauty and salon treatments. This will be available to guests, people living locally and an exclusive club membership from early 2018.

“The opening of our leisure club’s spa services will give us scope to expand our customer base even further. At the moment it is a strong, growth sector and will enable the hotel to attract a wider range of leisure travellers, as well as offering a greater service to our wedding couples and corporate clients looking for incentive breaks and bespoke ‘away-days’.”

“We are continuing to build on our success as the year progresses, with a growth in our events business of 20 per cent, and our accommodation continues to show a strong performance with average room rates up by 10 per cent on last year. “These are firm foundations on which to continue to develop the business and I am confident that the investment in further upgrades at the hotel will play a huge part in seeing the hotel achieve greater success moving forwards.”
