Rezidor Signs Park Inn @ ExCeL in London

Rezidor has signed a new hotel in London. The brand new Park Inn London ExCeL will feature 223 rooms and is scheduled to open in Q2 2013.

ExCeL is one of the largest event centres in London. It is spread over 100 acres and provides almost 100,000 square meters of space. Since the opening in 2000 at a cost of £300 million, it has hosted more than 3,500 events and welcomed five million visitors. ExCeL, owned by the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC), recently completed a £160m extension and became the largest exhibition venue in the UK.

The Park Inn which will be constructed by Galliford Try will be located a mere 200 metres west of the main entrance, and, soaring 20 stories above the skyline, will soon emerge as a local landmark. Facilities will include 223 rooms (the majority offering uninterrupted views of the River Thames), a restaurant and bar, several meeting rooms, and a fitness room.

Besides ExCeL, the hotel is also located in proximity to London City Airport (which has over 200 daily flights), the commercial centre of Canary Wharf, and the state-of-the-art O2 concert arena. Moreover, the nearby Royal Docks area is currently undergoing a £1.5 billion re-development, which will include new leisure and entertainment venues.
