The Carlton Hotel on St. Anne’s Promenade has been acquired by a fast growing North East hotel and pub company, Inn Collection.  This sixteen bedroom hotel with its public bar and restaurant facilities adjoins the much larger  Lindum Hotel, which Inn Collection acquired at the end of last year (2020).  The Carlton Hotel will now trade as part of The Lindum Hotel.

Managing Director Sean Donkin (pictured below) said, ‘We are excited to be expanding in this fantastic part of the North.  The Carlton will be a great addition to the Lindum and allow us to further our fantastic offering to more people.  2021 has continued to be a year of substantial growth and this asset will help us increase our offering in Lancashire.  We are also delighted that with this acquisition we can contribute to job creation and economic development across the supply chain giving a much needed boost within the communities we operate during these challenging times.’

With the acquisition of The Carlton Hotel, the Alnwick based Inn Collection Group’s portfolio has now reached 23.  This Alchemy-backed group has recently evaluated its growth plans and has increased its target of sites to  40 by the end of 2022.
