Whitbread is turning its historic 250-year-old London headquarters into upmarket serviced apartments branded Marriott Hotels.
The historic building, purchased by founder Samuel Whitbread in 1750, will undergo a £39m conversion, subject to planning permission, to convert it into 135 Marriott Executive Residences. A Whitbread spokesman said there will be no job losses among the HQ’s 70 staff who will relocate to new offices at City Point in Moorgate, London at the end of this year.
Whitbread operates Marriott in the UK, Travel Inn and the recently acquired Swallow Hotels.
