Signature Living, the Liverpool-based hotel group, has been given the go-ahead to develop the Old Post Office building in Preston into a boutique hotel.
The three-storey Grade II-listed building in the centre of Preston has been unoccupied for the last six years.
Signature Living are the developers behind the Shankly Hotel and 30 James Street Hotel in Liverpool. Both hotels have 63 boutique-styled bedrooms and suites and both
have been created from architecturally attractive properties in the centre of Liverpool.
Expect to see a similar style development at the Old Post Office in Preston. Details: http://www.signatureliving.co.uk/
Around half a mile from the Old Post Office is the former Park Hotel in Preston. This could be reopening.
Plans have been published to redevelop the council-owned former hotel which overlooks Miller Park in the city centre.
The old hotel, which opened in 1883, was formerly a hotel for rail passengers. More recently it has been a Lancashire County Council office.
Plans include creating a hotel and spa in the historic building overlooking the park. The new 1960’s office block alongside would be demolished and replaced with a new building extending the hotel as well as providing conference and office facilities.
A replacement park bridge is also planned plus the construction of a new link to Preston station.
