Ramada Hotel Closures Mark Major Shift | Leicester News

The Ramada Jarvis Hotel in Loughborough is officially stepping out of asylum seeker housing — part of the government’s bold plan to end hotel use for this purpose entirely. Alongside a Nottingham hotel, it’s returning to local communities, freeing up space for shops and town centers. With just under 160 hotels still in use nationwide — down from hundreds — closures are accelerating, saving taxpayers over £50 million in this latest round alone. The strategy? Shift to cheaper, bulkier accommodations like former military bases, slashing costs while building a more sustainable future for asylum support.
