£3M Hotel Acquisition

October 14, 2026 9:54 am

The Investment – Client sought to purchase a freehold 51-bedroom hotel site in a popular Welsh tourist area for £3,000,000.

Context – The site had recently undergone significant refurbishment works.

Existing Obligations – The purchase was subject to an existing 25-year lease at £255,000 per annum to one of the UK’s largest hotel chains. As a result, the transaction was treated as a Transfer of a Going Concern for VAT purposes.
