I’m looking to speak with an established hotel operator that wants to expand its UK portfolio **without tying up the capital required to purchase another freehold hotel outright**.
I’m developing an operator-led acquisition model where I find the **operator first**, understand exactly what hotel they want, and then source and structure the freehold acquisition around their requirements.
**What this could offer the operator:**
• A long-term operating position of approximately 20–25 years
• The ability to select preferred geography, hotel size, segment and operating profile before I source the asset
• Greater capital efficiency than purchasing the full freehold
• Predictable long-term property costs, with rent and future review mechanisms negotiated upfront
• Flexibility around operational control, refurbishment and maintenance responsibilities
• A landlord/freehold owner taking the long-term property ownership and financing exposure
• No requirement to commit capital to a random property that has not been approved by the operator
I am particularly interested in operators capable of considering an **upfront lease premium/capital commitment in the region of £300,000–£800,000**, depending entirely on the hotel's economics, rent, location, lease terms and operator requirements.
The premium and rent would be negotiated together — I am not looking to maximise both at the operator's expense. The hotel has to remain commercially attractive for the operator throughout the lease.
**Most importantly, this would not involve transferring money to me before a property is acquired.**
The intention is for any serious commitment to be legally documented and conditional upon an agreed property being identified, satisfactory due diligence, acquisition finance/lender approval and successful completion.
If the required acquisition does not complete, the lease does not complete. Any pre-completion deposit or committed funds would be dealt with through the agreed solicitor-controlled contractual mechanism.
I’m looking for **one or two serious operating partners** with active UK expansion plans rather than hundreds of enquiries.
If this could fit your expansion strategy, please email **[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])** with the subject:
**HOTEL OPERATING PARTNER**

3. Preferred UK locations
4. Preferred number of rooms
5. Hotel segment/positioning
6. Existing hotel, conversion or both
7. Preferred lease length
8. Indicative sustainable annual rent range
9. Whether an upfront premium of £300k–£800k could be considered for the right economics
10. Refurbishment/capex appetite
11. Ideal completion timeline
12. Anything that would make a hotel an immediate “yes” or “no” for you
