Travelodge open for key workers

Budget hotel chain Travelodge has kept open some 200 properties during lockdown to provide accommodation for guests exempt from restrictions who need to travel for work, local authorities, and other key workers allowed to stay overnight.

Earlier this year the group implemented TravelodgeProtect+, a comprehensive cleaning programme including antiviral disinfectant, extra post clean room checks with digital tracking and thermally disinfection of all towels and linen. For all staff this has meant training on cleaning, hygiene, and social distancing. Housekeeping staff do not enter rooms during guests stays.
