Barnes will start on site next month to transform the vacant office building Gredley House into a 151-room Travelodge.

The new Travelodge will be built to a BREEAM Excellent standard and will feature the group’s new premium look and feel design, as well as its new 85 Bar Cafe.

Tony O’Brien, UK Development Director, Travelodge said: “Travelodge is delighted to continue the expansion of our network of hotels throughout London and this new hotel in the thriving hub of Stratford will be a fantastic addition to our portfolio.

“The site is in a prime location, just moments away from Stratford station and Westfield Stratford City shopping centre, and will attract new visitors to the area.

“We have great experience of converting existing office space into Travelodge hotels. This type of development is a win-win solution for all parties, as it converts redundant space back into economic use.

“We are also thrilled to be working with Barnes Construction on yet another successful project and hope this new hotel will be open for trading by the end of 2025.”
