Formats and specifications
There is no fixed format for Premier Inn, we can be very flexible for the right site. Broadly speaking we create stand-alone hotel sites, joint sites consisting of a Premier Inn hotel with adjoining branded restaurant and small-format sites. More information on all three is in the presentation below.
Target locations - UK
We secured 31 new hotel locations in the UK in the 2017/18 financial year (equivalent to 4,300 new UK Premier Inn bedrooms). We are targeting a similar number of hotel sites this year. A list of our requirements for the UK and Ireland is below.
