Iconic hotel launches recruitment drive in preparation for post-lockdown reopening

The Malone Lodge, located in Eglantine Avenue between the Lisburn and Malone Roads confirmed today it will re-open for business on 9th June.

The new jobs will comprise a range of operational roles including reception, housekeeping, bar and restaurant staff as well as events.

The hotel, which this year marks its 30th anniversary, has also revealed plans for a major multi-phased refurbishment programme and re-brand underpinned by “significant” investment.

General Manager Suzi McIlhatton said this year would mark the beginning of a new era for the boutique hotel which has been in business since 1991 and is now in the hands of a new senior management team of herself and Operations Manager, Chris Kilpatrick.

“The owners recently disposed of a number of our apartments to focus on delivering a best-in-class hospitality experience,” she said.

“We have big plans to rejuvenate the whole business from top to bottom. We have been conscious for some time of the need to re-position our offering and update our brand.

“Our new offering will play very much to our proud Belfast heritage with excellent food, beverage and exemplary customer service as cornerstones.

“We believe our new brand will be perfectly suited to the new, confident Belfast.”
