Lancashire County Cricket Club has launched a bid to raise £3million through a retail bond to fund a new four-star hotel at their Old Trafford ground in Manchester. A 150-bedroom hotel at Emirates Old Trafford will replace the existing 68-bedroom Old Trafford Lodge.
Emirates Old Trafford stadium has recently completed a £45million overhaul developing its extensive conference and banqueting facilities. As a result it has grown its event sales by 20 per cent over the past year. A four star hotel would further cement the Emirates Old Trafford ground's reputation as a leading venue in Manchester.
