Slated for opening next month, the brand new Hampton by Hilton Manchester City Centre will be the largest of the brand’s portfolio in both the UK and Europe.

Heading up the opening as General Manager will be Abi Hindle, who will oversee all operational aspects of the hotel, including pre-opening team development, implementation of operational and administrative frameworks and the delivery of exceptional guest experiences. Hindle brings with her previous experience working at Hampton by Hilton hotels, having held various positions within commercial and operations teams, including as Director of Sales and General Manager.

Tom Ansbro has been named as Group Commercial Director, having worked on both hotel sales and commercial strategy previously. Ansbro joins the project with a distinguished track record across several of Manchester’s most high-profile hotels, including Director of Sales roles at Hilton Manchester Deansgate and The Lowry Hotel.

The team will be leading the launch of the newbuild 358-room property, which forms part of a wider project by Dean Street Developments, a UK-based property development company operating across Europe.
