A hotel next to the A1(M) has unveiled its latest hotel refurbishment that has seen the popular venue gain a contemporary new media lounge, an Open Lobby concept, and a new bar and lounge area.
Images of the Holiday Inn Darlington A1(M) Scotch Corner facility have been shared that show its latest hotel refurbishment that, it is hoped, will become a modern destination for the Darlington community.
The renovation aims to alter the way guests and the public use the venue, especially amongst the area’s businesses and professionals, now providing a space for grabbing a coffee, working remotely, or collaborating with others.

The new media lounge houses multiple meeting areas, as well as two semi-private, state-of-the-art media pods from which local businesses can meet, work and present.
Each pod seats up to five guests, and includes TV screens for projection, free Wi-Fi, complimentary parking, all-day tea and coffee, access to a printer, and lunch –available on a half-day rental package.
The Holiday Inn at Scotch Corner also offers EV charging stations that are accessible to all visitors from the local community.

The new Open Lobby also features a ‘To Go’ Café with its own Starbucks coffee shop, offering a selection of drinks, cakes, sandwiches, and snacks for guests.
Snowdon, general manager at Holiday Inn Darlington A1 Scotch Corner, said: “The Open Lobby concept is unique to the Holiday Inn brand, and we are very proud to be unveiling our new refurbished space to the Darlington community.
“We are particularly excited about the launch of our new media lounge and pods as this is something brand-new and will bring added value to not only the hotel but the local area as professionals continue to get back out and work collaboratively post-pandemic.
“However, it’s not all about business, as the Open Lobby including our ‘To Go’ Café is open to anyone from the public who would like to come and pay us a visit – we can’t wait to welcome everyone through our doors.”
