Construction has started on the Courtyard by Marriott hotel at Keele University’s Science and Innovation Park in Staffordshire, set to create 60 jobs.
The 150-bedroom hotel, due to open in Autumn 2020, will provide much needed accommodation to support the growing conference and events business of the University, as well as provide accommodation for users of the Keele University Science and Innovation Park.

The University has been advised by Ros Roche of PRD Partners Ltd.
