Kew Green Hotels, one of the leading international hotel management companies, with over 55 hotels in its portfolio, has launched a partnership with Othership, providing co-working lobby spaces and private alternatives to home working in all 47 of their UK hotels. This comes at a time when 9 out of 10 job seekers are looking for increased flexibility and 60% of people are looking for remote working. With the Minister for Women and Equalities calling for flexible working to be “normalised” as part of the UK econ omy’s Covid-19 recovery, flexible working is set to become a permanent feature of life post-pandemic.

Othership was founded on the idea that we were due a work-life revolution, adopting better working practices for our own health, the environment and even the economy. Since launching in 2019, Othership has grown from just a place to find free and unique workspaces, into a membership for freedom seekers wishing to empower their work-life. Othershippers (members of Othership) do this by combining the benefits of co-working alongside others as well as the freedom of working from anywhere they like - something they refer to at Othership as a flo-working revolution™.

Commenting on the partnership, Joanna Fisher, Group Commercial Director of Kew Green Hotels remarked “We are delighted to partner with Othership to offer a flexible co-working solution across our estate. This initiative will continue to build footfall into our hotel spaces and drive awarenes s with our community of hotel guests and local residents whilst providing an incremental revenue stream, as we re-align our offering with how customers want to use hotels. ”
Othership co-working spaces are available at 47 hotels owned and managed by Kew Green Hotels including Holiday Inn Manchester, Edinburgh Grosvenor Hotel, Holiday Inn London-Shepperton, Holiday Inn Portsmouth and Holiday Inn Birmingham M6 J7. Members of Othership select their annual plan, starting from £30 a year, with a free trial for their Premium service. Members then simply book workspaces and events through the Othership’s website.

To complement the Othership spaces, Kew Green Hotels also offers a range of Hybrid Meetings and ‘Outside of the Box’ outdoor meetings packages, catering for everything from corporate meetings to informal get-togethers, helping colleagues and businesses to re-connect.
