In an exciting development for the West Midlands hospitality sector, Premier Inn has revealed plans for a substantial expansion of its Solihull hotel that promises to create dozens of new employment opportunities.
The major extension will see the addition of 81 new bedrooms to the existing Premier Inn location at Homer Road, significantly boosting the hotel's capacity to serve visitors to this thriving business and leisure destination.
Economic Boost for the Region
This strategic investment by parent company Whitbread represents a strong vote of confidence in Solihull's growing appeal as a commercial and tourism hub. The expansion is set to generate approximately 30 new permanent positions across various departments, from housekeeping to front desk operations.
Local job seekers will welcome these opportunities as the hotel strengthens its team to manage the increased capacity and maintain Premier Inn's renowned service standards.
Strategic Location Advantages
The Solihull hotel enjoys a prime position with excellent transport connections, making it an ideal base for both business travellers and tourists exploring the West Midlands. Its proximity to key attractions and commercial centres has driven demand for additional accommodation options.
The expansion comes at a time when Solihull continues to attract significant business investment, with the area establishing itself as a key economic centre in the region.
Whitbread's Continued Growth Strategy
This development forms part of Whitbread's ongoing strategy to strengthen Premier Inn's presence in high-demand locations across the UK. The company has demonstrated consistent commitment to investing in properties that show strong performance potential.
The Solihull expansion follows similar successful projects in other strategic locations, reflecting Whitbread's confidence in the long-term growth of the UK hospitality market.
Construction is expected to commence shortly, with the new bedrooms anticipated to be available to guests within the coming year, further enhancing Solihull's accommodation offerings and supporting local economic growth.
