Mollie’s is a growing family of twenty-first century motel-diners with big ambitions. In spirit, Mollie’s was born in America – an offspring of the classic roadside motel and drive-in diner, a welcome stopover on a route to somewhere. We’ve borrowed the inviting red neon signs and the easy-going vibe, the burgers, the shakes, the bottomless coffee, a dash of nostalgia, but there’s nothing old-school about Mollie’s. Expect innovative digital check-in, EV chargers, designer rooms with a fresh Soho House look and affordable prices. So far, two motel-diners; Mollie’s Oxfordshire opened in 2019, Bristol followed in 2021 (it’s already been named as the ‘Best Budget Hotel’ in this year’s Sunday Times Best Places to Stay). A mega Mollie’s in Manchester is on-track for 2023. With many more motels in the pipeline. Mollie’s is going places. Download the Mollie’s App for an entirely digital experience. Book, see and manage your stay and Diner reservations anytime, check-in when it’s right for you and chat to our friendly team 24/7. EV drivers park up, plug in and press to start charging – conscience eased. Access your room with our digital key, control and cast all your favourite TV and Netflix whilst ordering food and checking out our staycation guides. Breakfast made easier, store your prepaid breakfast for you and the family in your Wallet and redeem in our Diner. All this from one place, seamlessly.
