A rare freehold opportunity in central Gloucester: a 65-bedroom, room-only hotel occupying a Grade II listed Georgian/Regency-style building. The property trades as a largely hands-off business with established repeat trade and strong revenue history, presented as a turnkey operation with fixtures and fittings included. Its central location places it within walking distance of Gloucester Cathedral, Gloucester Docks, the new university campus (opening 2025) and the railway and bus stations.
The accommodation is arranged over four floors with a reception, lift and staircase access, and a mix of doubles, twins and family rooms. Rooms are described as clean, light and bright and benefit from ensuite shower rooms and basic guest facilities (microwaves, fridges, tea/coffee, TVs, desks). Recent conversion work has created a sizable hotel footprint in a sought-after city centre location, supporting strong occupancy from tourists, students and business visitors.
Notable constraints are factual and material: the building is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and could complicate future refurbishment or expansion. The local area registers very high crime levels and very high deprivation which may impact insurance, staffing and some customer perceptions. The property is marketed as a room-only, mid-market operation; there is scope to add services or increase yield, but any changes must respect listed-building requirements. Trading accounts and detailed performance information are available from the seller for serious buyers.
