What boutique hotel business types can I buy?

You can buy two boutique hotel business types: freehold or leasehold. Understanding the difference can help you make a more informed choice.

Leasehold boutique hotels

These transactions involve just buying the business. You will not own the property itself, and will, therefore, need to take over the previous hotel owner’s rental agreement or agree to new terms with the landlord. Leasehold deals are usually uncommon when buying hotels, but are still possible.

Freehold boutique hotels

Freehold deals give you a more comprehensive package, as you will be acquiring the business, its assets and its properties. You can typically expect these transactions to be more expensive than leasehold ones.

How are boutique hotels valued?

There are several steps to valuing a boutique hotel. First, an appraisal is needed to figure out how much any buildings or assets included in the sale are worth. Next, a valuer will need to understand the business’s trading potential to see how much a new owner can make, giving them a clearer understanding of the investment opportunity. A trade-related valuation will be used for this, which considers profits, staff expenses and other costs.
