Carrington House Hotel in Bournemouth has been sold by specialist property adviser Christie + Co to Britannia Hotels, the fifth hotel owned by Britannia in Bournemouth. Offers were invited on £3 million for the business as a going concern.
The 145-bedroom hotel was owned and operated by Akkeron Hotels, who decided to sell in order to concentrate its interests on operating other hotels in its portfolio. Carrington House no longer met the future plans and strategy for the group.
In addition to its 145 bedrooms, Carrington House Hotel also has extensive banqueting facilities for 300 and an indoor leisure club. The hotel is located down a quiet tree lined avenue on Bournemouth’s East Cliff — a short walk from the town centre and Bournemouth’s renowned beaches.
Simon Stevens, Director of Corporate Hotels at Christie + Co, says: “Carrington House Hotel was an excellent opportunity for Britannia Hotels to add to its expanding portfolio. Founded in 1976, the group now has 44 hotels and more than 8,000 bedrooms. It is the largest privately owned hotel chain in the UK.
“I fully expect Britannia Hotels will take the Carrington House Hotel business forward securing increased leisure business for the resort, whilst bringing valuable employment opportunities to the area.”
