Following the acquisition of Luton Hoo Hotel, Golf & Spa by Arora Group in December 2021, the company announced it has signed an agreement to redevelop the hotel under the Fairmont Hotels & Resorts brand. The announcement demonstrates the growing partnership between Arora Group and Accor, whose collection of brands includes Fairmont Hotels & Resorts.
Prior to taking on the Fairmont flag, Luton Hoo Hotel, Golf & Spa will undergo a multimillion-dollar redevelopment over the next few years. Dating to 1601, the estate spans 1,100 acres on the border of Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Excellent transport links between St. Pancras and Luton Parkway railway stations mean the mansion hotel is easily reachable from London or Cambridge. As one of the most accessible hotels to Luton airport, it is a convenient destination for domestic and international travelers alike.
Fun facts: Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip spent part of their honeymoon there and Sir Winston Churchill gave his famous post-World War II speech to a crowd of 110,000 people at the hotel.
The hotel will join iconic Fairmont properties across the U.K. and Ireland, such as The Savoy, A Fairmont Managed Hotel, in London; Fairmont St Andrews in Scotland; Carton House, A Fairmont Managed Hotel, in Ireland; and the Arora-owned Fairmont Windsor Park near historic Windsor.
