Bedrijfsomschrijving
Cycas Hospitality heeft een huurovereenkomst getekend met Van der Linde Architecten en Ontwikkelingsmaatschappij voor het beheer van IHG's eerste nieuwe Holiday Inn Express & Suites concept in Europa, dat in het vierde kwartaal van 2022 in Nederland geopend werd.


Hoewel het concept om een Holiday Inn Express hotel te combineren met extra merksuites de afgelopen tien jaar steeds populairder is geworden bij reizigers in Noord-Amerika en Azië, is dit de eerste ondertekening van IHG's uitgebreide Holiday Inn Express merkconcept in Europa.


Het 99-key Holiday Inn Express & Suites Deventer zal bestaan uit 83 standaard kamers plus 16 suites, het eerste aparthotel in de regio. Hoewel elke suite een kitchenette, woonruimte en apart slaapgedeelte heeft om tegemoet te komen aan reizigers die langer blijven, kunnen gasten toch profiteren van de ruimere faciliteiten van het hotel, waaronder het gratis Express StartTM ontbijt.


Met uitgebreide parkeergelegenheid, de locatie aan de rand van Deventer langs de A1, die Nederland met Duitsland verbindt, en de nabijheid van buslijn 6, met aansluitende treinverbindingen door heel Europa, is het hotel gemakkelijk bereikbaar. Dankzij deze geweldige vervoersverbindingen zijn Amsterdam en de Duitse grens elk minder dan een uur rijden, terwijl vijf internationale luchthavens allemaal binnen 90 minuten rijden te bereiken zijn.


Het nieuwe Holiday Inn Express & Suites Deventer ligt ook naast het bedrijventerrein De Weteringen, waar een mix van ingenieursbureaus, productiebedrijven en logistieke dienstverleners naar verwachting de vraag van bedrijven naar de mogelijkheden voor een verlengd verblijf zal stimuleren. Op het terrein bevinden zich ook een tankstation, een carpoolplaats en een restaurant.
