Hotel brand Roomzzz is to open its latest aparthotel in Chester early next year.

An apartment hotel is a serviced apartment complex that uses a hotel-style booking system.

The precise location of Roomzzz Aparthotel Chester City has not yet been disclosed but it will feature 61 apartments, including penthouse suites with rooftop balconies overlooking the racecourse.

The new property is the sixth in the firm’s portfolio and will open in early 2014, with prices starting at £79 a night.

Roomzzz already has an aparthotel on Princess Street in Manchester as well as three in its home city of Leeds and another in Newcastle.

The group, which launched in 2006, said revenue so far this year was up 11% on 2012 and it has achieved 87% occupancy.

Mark Walton, head of Roomzzz Aparthotel, said: “We are delighted to be opening in Chester with our latest innovation and development to the brand which is the addition of the penthouses and rooftop balconies to the brand.

“We feel this is just the level of feel-good luxury factor that Roomzzz excel at delivering, with, as always, a keen eye on price and the delivery of impeccable hospitality.”

He added: “Chester is an exciting and vibrant location, Roomzzz as a brand will complement the demographic that already enjoy Chester and we are confident we will enhance the offering for premium accommodation in the city plus attracting more people into the area.”

The Roomzzz Penthouses will all feature Apple technology, stylish interiors with a high-end luxurious finish and will enjoy views out over Chester Racecourse from the rooftop balconies.
