Sheffield hotels: £20m Catcliffe hotel abandoned for a year hit by new delays
A £20m Rotherham hotel abandoned half-built for a year has faced fresh delays.
The Marriott Hotel in Catcliffe was set to open in September after construction re-started in January.
That was moved to autumn, then November 1. In October, bosses said they were selling from December 2 but expected to be open before then.
A follow-up post on the hotel’s Facebook page pushed it to December 16.
The Marriott was originally due to open in summer 2023. But builders downed tools in December that year, leaving the six-storey building open to the elements. Workers hired ahead of the launch were laid off.
Construction of the 150-room hotel restarted in January.
The building on Mable Way overlooks the Morrisons roundabout at Catcliffe, Rotherham, and is visible from the Parkway.
It will be run by RBH Hospitality Management on behalf of international hotel brand Marriott. Its official name is Marriott Courtyard Sheffield.
Stapleford Ventures, based in Dartford, Kent, is the developer. Builder RTS is based in Leicestershire.
