Plans for a 120-bed 'lifestyle' hotel at Dreamland are set to be revealed next month.

Margate Estates, the parent company of the park, will be holding community drop-in events in July to share ideas.

Part of the sessions will be an opportunity to look at proposals for a hotel, comprising of about 120 beds, with a view of creating more jobs and addressing the shortage of hotel rooms in the town.

The drop-ins have been organised to provide those living in the area with an update on Margate Estates £50 million investment into Dreamland and to introduce the new team - as well as to share proposals for the hotel on the seafront.

A spokesman said: "Margate Estates are keen to discuss the role we can play in supporting the wider culture-led regeneration that is helping to revive Margate.

"Since acquiring the park in November 2017, we have invested more than £50 million in Dreamland, both in wholescale re-landscaping of the park and rebuilding the management team.

"Margate Estates believes that the town has unique appeal, one that provides enormous opportunities.

"By working with others that are committed to this creative resurgence, we aim to build Dreamland into a world-class entertainment venue and provide workspace and facilities for creative industries to thrive.

"We want to continue to work closely with Thanet District Council and other partners on a vision for Dreamland and the area around it."

More details of the events are due to be announced next week.
