The group plans to come up with five or six hotels across the cities in the next few years.
Dorsett has already two operating hotels in London boroughs Aldgate and Shepherds Bush. The 13-story Dorsett City, London had opened in the year 2017 with as many as 267 guestrooms and suites next to Aldgate tube station and St. Botolph’s Church.
Dorsett would be opening conventional hotels along with an apartment-style property under its Dorsett Residences brand to target travellers looking for longer stays.
This company is also aiming to meet the co-working space demand in the cities with the redevelopment of the Hornsey Town Hall building.
Winnie Chiu who is the CEO of Dorsett Hotels & Resorts told the regional media that they look forward to developing these things in the UK first and would look to rolling similar sites out in Europe and Asia in future.
This is the most recent leg in the expansion of Dorsett Hotels across Europe.
It follows the company’s acquisition of a firm with hotels in Austria, Germany and the Czech Republic.
The hotels would also expand Far East Consortium’s presence in the UK. The company has also recently acquired Angelgate development site of Manchester in a £5.2 million deal. Far East Consortium portfolio also comprises 4 hotels under construction in Malaysia and four planned in Australia.
Alongside it, Far East Consortium also owns a car parking business in Australia.
