Project is the latest in Village’s multi-million-pound investment and upgrade programme
Russell WBHO has been appointed by Village Hotel Club – one of the UK’s market-leading hotel and health & wellness brands – to extend its Leeds South hotel.
The new extension, which will be linked by a bridge to the main building, will add 48 modern new bedrooms to the hotel. Work will be completed over 12 months, with the hotel remaining fully operational throughout the construction period.
The work at Village Hotel Club Leeds South is the latest milestone in Village’s multi-million-pound investment and upgrade programme. Across the UK, it is completing a range of internal refurbishments and extensions, with similar projects being completed at Village Hotel Club Ashton and Solihull. Both extensions are being constructed by Russell WBHO and are on track for handover in December 2025 and Spring 2026, respectively.
Andrew Weisz, Head of Property at Village Hotel Club, commented: “In response to growing customer demand, we’re delighted to be adding 48 new bedrooms to our Leeds South hotel, all while ensuring minimal disruption for our guests. This follows our extensions at Ashton and Solihull, and marks the third project of this nature with Russell WBHO. We look forward to completing the works with the team and introducing our new, modern bedrooms to guests over the coming months and years.”
Gareth Russell, Managing Director at Russell WBHO, added: “This contract underlines the strength of our growing partnership with Village Hotel Club and capability to deliver multiple turnkey projects across the country.
“Our work is part of a major investment and upgrade programme, incorporating a new design model that optimises space and enhances the guest experience. Our priority is to deliver construction to the highest standards while minimising disruption, ensuring the hotel can function as normal and guests continue to enjoy their stay.”
