Mercure Bristol North The Grange Hotel has undergone a major investment, transforming the 19th Century Manor House
The extensive refurbishment includes the renovation of the hotel’s ground floor including the restaurant, bar, lounge and reception area as well as the redesign of the hotel’s largest event space, The Park Suite, to provide the ideal setting to cater for all occasions.
The stunning Bath stone manor house, located in a peaceful pocket of North Bristol countryside, will unveil its new look at an official opening on May 15. As part of the refurbishment the hotel will present a brand new image, which includes new lighting, carpets and drapes plus a brand new sophisticated colour scheme. Creating a stylish and contemporary feel, the hotel retains its historical features and uses current colours and fabrics to give a modern day style.
Interior designer Helen Hooper of HH Interiors, who has previously worked with Jupiter Hotels on renovation projects across the UK, comments on the project: “Throughout the public areas of the hotel, the interior fuses contemporary fabrics and colours with traditional period features and detail. There are bespoke touches throughout the design. The fabrics are luxurious and sumptuous in elegant colours with a mixture of fine textures to create a relaxed ambience. We wanted to embrace and treasure locally inspired touches such as art work commissioned by local artists, which is on display throughout the hotel.”
The investment also includes the redesign of The Park Suite, to provide the perfect location for any event or wedding. With large French doors, which open onto the courtyard to overlook the picturesque landscaped gardens, the magnificent suite, which can accommodate up to 160 guests for a wedding reception, offers the perfect backdrop.
The hotel has a vast selection of event space on offer, with seven meeting rooms available, and space for up to 180 delegates. Each offer complimentary high speed Wi-Fi and there is a Helipad for those who wish to arrive in style!
Josh Watts, the hotel’s General Manager commented: “We are delighted with the completion of this recent project. Having renovated our bedroom corridors and implemented new beds last year, this is the final phase in our extensive project to help elevate our offering at the hotel.”
Shane Harris, CEO Jupiter Hotels said: “The refurbishment in Bristol is part of our ongoing commitment to investing in the design, quality and experience at our hotels. We always strive to keep the character and bring in touches of modernity when refurbishing our hotels and we feel Mercure Bristol North The Grange Hotel is a great example of this.
