Lancashire County Cricket Club’s plan to build a 150-bedroom four-star hotel at the Emirates Old Trafford have been boosted with Greater Manchester's Combined Authority agreeing to provide a £5million loan towards the scheme, the total cost of which is estimated at £12million.
The proposed hotel will replace the club's existing on-site 68-bedroom Old Trafford Lodge. The new hotel will mark the final phase of the stadium’s redevelopment and will be operated through a branded franchise.
The redevelopment of Emirates Old Trafford has included creation of The Point, a strikingly modern state-of-the-art meeting, conference, banqueting and exhibition facility overlooking the pitch plus a brand new Pavilion as well as a variety of new meeting spaces around the ground.
