The brand-new locally inspired Mercure Newport hotel has opened its doors to the public for the first time.
Conveniently located in the heart of the city centre, at the top of the historic Chartist Tower, the new Mercure Newport Hotel is perfectly placed to discover both the modern city and the surrounding Welsh countryside. Featuring contemporary bedrooms, an open plan restaurant and outdoor rooftop terrace at ‘Bar & Kitchen @NP20’, a Fitness Centre and a range of Meeting and Event spaces, the Mercure Newport is a welcome addition to the South Wales hotel, leisure and business scene.
General Manager Ceri Trela commented: “I’m thrilled to be opening our doors to welcome guests, from near and far, to enjoy the most exciting hotel opening we’ve seen in Newport for a long time. This new four-new hotel is a major investment for both Newport and Wales as a whole, bringing tourism, business and jobs to the area, whilst providing a solution to the significant gap in the market for much needed rooms.”
She continued: “We know Newport residents will love the new facilities and locally inspired spaces, we also hope to attract big business bookings within the sport and leisure sectors, and in doing so strengthen the region as a destination and booking choice for the future.”
David Anderson, Executive Vice President – International at Interstate Hotels & Resorts, added: “We are really excited to be opening this amazing new hotel in this fantastic location. The Mercure Newport hotel is a great addition to our growing portfolio and a wonderful example of the Mercure brand.”
