Dalata opens £48.4m Maldron Hotel in London

Dalata Hotel group has opened Maldron Hotel Finsbury Park, its first Maldron Hotel in London.

Located at 240 Seven Sisters Road, the 4-star hotel is Dalata’s first Maldron Hotel in the capital, the group’s 53rd hotel in the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe, and the first of five new Maldron Hotels set to open across the UK in the next 12 months.

Dalata, which also operates Clayton Hotels, purchased the ready-to-open 191-bedroom hotel at Finsbury Park from Furadino Holdings for £44.3 million and invested a further £4.1 million in the asset.

At the time of purchase, Dalata said the hotel is BER A rated and is expected to achieve BREEAM ‘Excellent’ accreditation, adding that the property was constructed using the Vision Modular System, which can result in as much as a 40 per cent saving in the embodied carbon emissions when compared with traditional methods of construction.

What they said

Dalata Hotel Group CEO, Dermot Crowley said: “We are very proud to open Maldron Hotel Finsbury Park, the brand’s first hotel to open in London. But with Maldron Hotel Shoreditch opening early next year, it won’t be on its own for long. Earlier in the summer, Dalata Hotel Group also opened the Clayton Hotel London Wall which underlines our determination to grow our presence in London. Elsewhere the company is in expansion mode with an exciting pipeline in prime locations throughout the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe having recently acquired a landmark hotel in Amsterdam.”

Kirsty Monington, General Manager of Maldron Hotel Finsbury Park added: “We are proud to add to the area’s growing reputation as a destination suburb. Following a successful partial opening in July, we are now up to full capacity and looking forward to welcoming even more guests.”
