Dalata Opens 5th London Property, with Maldron Hotel Shoreditch

The Dalata Hotel Group – Ireland’s largest hotelier through its ownership of the Clayton and Maldron brands – has officially opened its fifth London property, the 4-star Maldron Hotel Shoreditch.

Maldron Hotel Shoreditch’s General Manager, James Feeney said the hotel, and its location, will provide the perfect basecamp for guests, allowing them to get the most out of their London experience.

Mr Feeney said: “We are so proud to be opening a new Maldron Hotel in one of London’s coolest, most vibrant neighbourhoods.

“Unforgettable experiences start at Maldron Hotels and we are confident our guests will love our location.

“Just 500m from Old Street and 800m from Liverpool Street underground stations, we are the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail at the bar before you effortlessly explore the city for an epic night out.

“With a dedicated meeting and events floor encompassing six meeting rooms equipped with Clevertouch technology, and with the hotel just 30 minutes from Canary Wharf and London City Airport, we are also an excellent choice for business and for corporate guests.

“With the vibrant Spitalfields Markets and Brick Lane just moments away, our friendly energy will ensure all our guests enjoy every moment they spend with us in this dynamic part of the city.”

The 157-guestroom hotel is Dalata’s 23^rd in the UK following recent openings in Brighton, Liverpool and Cathedral Quarter in Manchester. It is Maldron’s second hotel in London after Maldron Hotel Finsbury Park opened in November last year.

These five new hotels have created 217 jobs and added 1029 guestrooms to Maldron Hotel’s UK portfolio and in total, Maldron Hotels now has 4,535 guestrooms across their 26 hotels.

Dalata also operates three additional hotels in the English capital under its Clayton Hotels brand: Clayton Hotel City of London, Clayton Hotel Chiswick, and Clayton Hotel London Wall.

Dalata Hotel Group CEO, Dermot Crowley said: “We are excited to open Maldron Hotel Shoreditch, our fifth Dalata hotel in the city.

“Shoreditch is a prime location for both business and leisure travellers and has been a key target location for us since moving into London.

“Our expansion in the city is on-track with our strategy and London will remain a key location for us, given the significant opportunities the market presents.

“With the opening of Maldron Hotel Shoreditch, Dalata now has 5080 guestrooms in its UK portfolio. With continued success, our ambition is to add a further 4,420 guestrooms in the UK over time, growing our UK portfolio to 9,500 rooms.

“I want to express my gratitude to our development partners and our local team for their hard work behind the scenes in preparing the hotel to welcome our guests.”
