After a year and a half of closures, the family-run Hastings Hotels, one of Northern Ireland鈥檚 most luxurious hotel chains, have reopened their doors. Staff prepare to welcome back guests, but the group lost over 拢16 million in 2021 and, in this new world of hospitality, the challenges they face are massive.
Meanwhile, in Belfast, the iconic Europa Hotel is gearing up for a series of sold-out exclusive gigs by singer-songwriter Van Morrison. However, the event go-ahead relies on Covid restrictions lifting in time.
Across town, the new Grand Central Hotel desperately needs to start generating income to help recoup its 拢50 million+ building costs.
