Principal Hotel Company will operate the new-look Grand Hotel in the centre of Birmingham when it reopens in early 2019.

The Grand Hotel, located within a Grade II-listed Victorian building, will include 180 bedrooms, a restaurant, bar, extensive conference and banquet space, a spa and the first rooftop infinity pool in the city.

The Grand Hotel closed in 2002. Since 2009, hotel owners have invested £25million in the restoration of the building resulting in the creation of ten shops and 11,000 sq ft of offices fronting Colmore Row, as well as the hotel itself.

Principal Hotel Company now intend to build the Grand Hotel into “the finest hotel” in Birmingham.

The Grand Hotel will join the group’s other city centre hotels in Manchester, York and Edinburgh as well as its flagship property overlooking Russell Square in central London which reopens this summer following a £75million refurbishment.
