18 Apr 2012 Chapter Hotels to open Exeter property BYPete Hayman
Chapter Hotels, the UK-based hospitality operator unveiled in 2010, has announced plans to open its second property within a 19th century former Exeter hospital building on 25 June.
The 59-bedroom Magdalen Chapter is to occupy the city's West England Eye Hospital after a sympathetic restoration led by Bath-based architects Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios.
Facilities will include The Spa, which will boast four treatment rooms offering massages and mini-treatments from locally-based skincare brand REN.
A fitness area and an 'inside-out pool' will also be among facilities at The Magdalen Chapter, which will join the group's first property - The Montpellier Chapter Hotel in Cheltenham.
A spokesperson said: "Original Victorian features have been maintained throughout the building and striking new extensions have been added to create bright public spaces."
