Our England Project and Development Services hotels team have also recently completed the refurbishment of 21 former Express by Holiday Inn sites to convert and rebrand into new Premier Inn hotels. The 21 site acquisition deal between Mitchells & Butlers and Premier Inn included 3 sites with planning permission for extensions adding an additional 106 bedrooms to these sites.  This project has seen Project and Development Services deliver a total of 1,245 new Premier Inn bedrooms.  All sites were rebranded immediately after exchange in September 2008 and refurbishment and extension works were completed in a 28 week period.  All sites were delivered within programme and budget despite an increase in scope in the final stages.

Jones Lang LaSalle Project and Development Services were involved in the full lifecycle from due diligence and acquisition through to managing the delivery of the projects to handover.  We provided Project Management, Cost Management and Building Surveying services. These two projects are just another example of the extensive services our hotels team is providing to Premier Inn across the country.
