I see a planning application has gone in for yet another airport hotel. This application is for a 6 story 120 bedroom hotel just down from the Encore. This new hotel will be built partly on the former Mondi Packaging Premises. If built this will make a total of 6 airport hotels and will be a Ibis Budget Hotel.
With regards to hotel development around the airport there are 5 hotels (752 bedrooms) located close to the airport. This includes a 124 bedroom Ramada Encore and 188 bedroom Hampton by Hilton. Other established hotels in the market include Ibis, Holiday Inn Express and a Premier Inn. Planning permission exists for a 156 bed hotel on the adjoining site (ICH Group) as well as a 152 bed hotel for Park Plaza on land adjacent to Airport Way
