GMI Construction Group has completed the Dakota Manchester Airport hotel, handing over the latest addition to the Dakota Hotels portfolio for developer Evans Property Group.
The seven-storey, 154-bedroom hotel is now welcoming guests and expands the accommodation available for passengers travelling through Manchester Airport. Located on Enterprise Way within the 60-acre MIX Manchester science, innovation and manufacturing campus, the development marks the fifth hospitality project delivered by GMI for Evans Property Group.
The completion follows GMI's previous delivery of Dakota hotels in Manchester city centre, Leeds, Glasgow and Newcastle Quayside.
Designed by KPP Architects, the hotel offers a range of accommodation including Classic King Rooms, Junior Suites, Signature Suites and Garden King Rooms. The development also features a destination bar and a brasserie-style grill centred around a feature bar.
The project is expected to create more than 150 jobs and adds to Manchester Airport's expanding hotel offering ahead of the summer travel season.
Phillip Johnson, Regional Director, North West at GMI Construction Group, said: "The practical completion of Dakota Manchester Airport represents another significant milestone in our long-standing relationship with Evans Property Group and the Dakota brand. This is a high-quality development that showcases GMI's expertise in delivering premium hospitality projects and our ability to meet the exacting standards associated with luxury hotel construction.
"From the outset, this project demanded exceptional attention to detail. Working collaboratively with the client team, consultants and supply chain partners, we have delivered a hotel that will become a standout addition to Manchester Airport's hospitality landscape.
"The successful completion of this project further reinforces GMI's strong presence across the North West, where we continue to deliver a diverse portfolio of high-profile developments across the hospitality, commercial, life sciences, logistics, and residential sectors."
