Hospitality — No Sale No Fee
Sell My Hotel
Sell your hotel with professional marketing and no upfront fees. We reach hundreds of thousands of registered buyers across 5 platforms — from independent investors to regional hotel groups — and only charge a success fee when your sale completes.
How to Value Your Hotel
Hotels are typically valued using a combination of EBITDA multiple (3x–6x) and RevPAR analysis. Room count, occupancy rates, average daily rate (ADR) and the strength of direct booking revenue all influence the final figure. Freehold hotels also carry significant underlying property value which can substantially increase the asking price.
Listed Across All 5 Major UK Platforms
Your hotel listing is advertised simultaneously on BusinessesForSale.com, Rightbiz, Daltons Business, Business Sale Report and Bizsale.co.uk — the UK's five biggest business-for-sale marketplaces, collectively reaching hundreds of thousands of registered buyers.
Professional Information Memorandum
Every listing includes a professionally written Information Memorandum — a detailed document presenting your hotel to prospective buyers. It covers your trading history, financials, operations and growth potential.
NDA Protection on Every Enquiry
Every buyer must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before receiving any details about your hotel. Your identity, location and financial information remain completely confidential until you choose to reveal them.

Key Value Drivers
- Freehold property — adds substantial value above trading performance
- High occupancy rates (70%+) and strong direct booking share
- Revenue diversification: F&B, events, spa, leisure
- Strong OTA profile (Booking.com, Expedia) with positive reviews
- Long-standing corporate accounts or conference trade
- Refurbished or well-maintained rooms with recent investment
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using rack rate revenue rather than net room revenue in the financial summary
- Not accounting for deferred maintenance when setting the asking price
- Overlooking the value of planning consents for bedroom additions
- Listing without confirming all licences (premises, caravan, entertainment) are current
- Failing to present operational data (RevPAR, ADR, GOPPAR) — buyers expect these
Who Buys This Type of Business?
Hotel buyers include independent operators seeking their first property, established hotel groups acquiring for portfolio growth, private equity-backed hospitality platforms, and overseas investors targeting the UK market. Leisure hotels in tourist destinations attract lifestyle buyers; city-centre and motorway hotels attract trade buyers and property investors.
UK Market Demand
The UK hotel market remains resilient and foreign investment into UK hospitality is near record levels. Domestic leisure travel has grown strongly post-pandemic and revenue per available room (RevPAR) has recovered. Hotels priced between £500k and £3m with stable trading records are in particularly active demand.
Common Questions
How is a hotel valued in the UK?
Hotels are valued on EBITDA multiple (typically 3x–6x), RevPAR analysis, and — for freeholds — underlying property value. Our team can produce a full hotel valuation report as part of your listing preparation.
How long does it take to sell a hotel in the UK?
Hotels typically take 9–18 months to sell due to the complexity of due diligence. Well-presented, well-priced hotels with clean accounts and freehold title can sell faster. Early preparation of legal pack and financial information is key.
What documents do I need to sell my hotel?
Prepare: 3 years of audited accounts, current P&L, room revenue breakdown, occupancy data, all licences, fire and safety certificates, maintenance records, staff list and TUPE information, title deeds or lease, and any planning consents.
Can I sell my hotel if it has an outstanding mortgage?
Yes. Most hotel sales involve redeeming an existing mortgage at completion. Your solicitor will handle the redemption statement and coordinate with your lender. Disclose the mortgage to your broker early so it's factored into the price negotiations.
What is RevPAR and why does it matter to buyers?
RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room) is calculated as occupancy rate × average daily rate. It's the most widely used hotel performance metric. Buyers use it to benchmark your hotel against local competitors and to model future earnings. Have at least 2 years of monthly RevPAR data ready.
What is the success fee?
Our success fee is only payable when contracts exchange and your sale successfully completes. There are no upfront fees, no listing fees and no monthly charges. Contact us for our current fee structure.
