Hotel Chain Continues European Growth

The low-carbon, great-value hotel chain, easyHotel, has announced it has acquired a brand-new hotel in Madrid, Spain which is scheduled to open in spring 2025.

The new hotel will be the second easyHotel location in the Spanish capital, following the opening of a franchised hotel in late 2022.

Situated in the San Blas-Canillejas district of Madrid on Calle Miguel Fleta, the hotel will feature 94 of the brand’s innovative low-carbon rooms, made using recycled and sustainable materials. Each compact guest room is smartly designed to maximise space and includes the brand’s Core Comforts, ensuring guests have everything they need for a great night’s sleep, such as a four-star style mattress, air conditioning and blackout curtains.

The hotel will also offer a breakfast restaurant and an outdoor terrace where single-use plastic-free continental buffet breakfasts will be available for guests. Additionally, the hotel will have parking for 31 cars including some electric charging spaces and will provide 11 new jobs in the local area.

The hotel is being developed by Redentum Partners, who successfully completed this turn-key sale to easyHotel under the advisory services of Colliers. The project is already under construction, bringing new life to an office block as it’s converted into a new hotel. As part of the development, the buildings energy infrastructure is having a complete upgrade with modern low-carbon initiatives such as the fitting of a hot water aerothermal system, solar panels and a battery management system.

Karim Malak, CEO of easyHotel, commented: “Spain is an incredibly important market for us as we’re seeing huge demand for branded great-value hotels across the country. As part of the easy family of brands, we benefit from leading brand awareness in Spain, which have been welcoming easyJet flights for almost 30 years. Our Madrid San Blas hotel is our second Spanish signing of the year and we’re exploring many more owned, leased and franchised opportunities as we look to grow our network of low-carbon hotels across Europe.”
