Irish hotel operator Dalata Hotel Group Ltd has agreed a lease for a new four-star Maldron hotel on Hammersmith Road in Kensington, next to the recently redeveloped £1.3 billion Olympia London exhibition centre.
The Maldron Kensington will be Dalata’s seventh hotel in London and is scheduled to open in 2029, subject to planning approval. The development will comprise approximately 370 guestrooms, alongside a restaurant, bar, dry gym and extensive business centre.
The project will be delivered in partnership with Dalata’s long-standing development partner McAleer and Rushe Property and will involve the conversion and extension of a vacant office building. The hotel will be an all-electric building, reflecting Dalata’s commitment to sustainable development.
Dalata is also preparing to open three previously announced hotels before the end of this year. These include the Maldron Hotel Croke Park, Clayton Hotel Berlin and Clayton Hotel Edinburgh.
