New images reveal what the inside of Leicester’s newest aparthotel will look like.
The Gresham is just months from opening in the Grade II listed former Fenwicks department store in the city’s Market Street.
Over the past year or so the building has gone through a £17 million renovation, under the guidance of developer owners, Aimrok Holdings.
The 121 room short to medium-stay hotel will open this autumn and will also include four commercial units and 12,000 sq ft of office accommodation and meeting space.
The new images show inside the recently completed show apartment.
When they are all finished the one and two bed serviced apartments will make as much as possible from the original architectural features of the building.
Each of the apartments will have a kitchen, living and dining area and either king, super-king or twin beds.
Aimrok director Mark Copson said: “It’s great to see The Gresham starting to take shape.
“It’s been a long year hampered by the pandemic but I am pleased to say that due to the innovative measures that we took in our construction processes, we are on track to open on time.
“We’re really excited to be opening one of Leicester’s few aparthotels.
“We chose this route because it’s what the market is demanding. Aparthotels offer a greater degree of flexibility and, having their own facilities, guests can be as self-contained as they want to be – much like having their own flat.
“The development is making great strides. Apartments on the first and second floors have all been equipped with their kitchen, bathroom, plumbing and electrics, ready for decorating and work on fitting out the other floors is also progressing well.”
