*************

Britannia Hotels is a United Kingdom based hotel company with 47 hotels across the country, making it the largest privately owned hotel chain in the UK. Hotels are located in prime locations including Manchester, London, Birmingham as well as near major airports. Britannia operates at the budget end of the market, with hotels varying in price and star ratings around the country. In January 2011 the company purchased the Pontins holiday camp chain which was in administration, and have subsequently had to deal with complaints.^[2][3][4][5] Other Britannia takeovers have also resulted in controversy.^[6]

Britannia Hotels was founded in 1976 with the purchase of the Britannia Country House Hotel in Didsbury, Manchester. Its head office is based in the old town hall in Hale, Manchester. A large cluster of the company's hotels are located in and around Manchester. The company employs over 4,000 people. Britannia does not build hotels, preferring to buy, refurbish and up-date existing hotels, restoring original features where possible. In some cases Britannia has converted other properties into hotels.

Britannia Hotels do not all have a common theme or identity, each hotel being individual. Bedrooms have different furnishings in each hotel, although refurbished rooms are generally in similar styles. Britannia do have a large number of hotel rooms which do not have windows.
