Ibis unveils seasonal-themed hotel
Ibis has revealed the newly refurbished ibis Styles Manchester Portland Hotel, a property that draws inspiration from British weather, with each section of the hotel paying homage to a different season.
Peter Stack, Managing Director of Amaris Asset Management, comments: “We’ve made significant investment in the property to transform it to an ibis Styles and it’s exciting to see the vision and concept come to life.”
The lobby features an array of giant umbrellas hanging from the ceiling, whilst the guestrooms above feature one of three themes. The Sunshine Room welcomes guests with a bright yellow front door, light blue walls and a movable cloud table. Elsewhere, the Raindrop Room features a cool blue palette, teardrop lights, raindrop hangers and an umbrella themed TV holder. Lastly, The Breezy room incorporates shades of orange and earthy prints, whilst tilted lightshades and leaf printed floors are reminiscent of autumn walks in the woods.
Karelle Lamouche, SVP of Budget & Economy Brands at AccorHotels UK, comments: “Adding the fully-refurbished Portland Hotel to our ever expanding portfolio of ibis Styles perfectly highlights the strength of our proposition and reinforces the brand as the benchmark in the economy segment. In keeping with the ibis Styles brand, the interior has now been brought to life expertly through unique and creative storytelling and playful design features, which provides our guests with a sense of fun and experience. Additionally, the hotels’ close proximity to the city centre makes it an ideal base to explore the many sights and sounds of Manchester.”
