Location:
The Red Lion Hotel is situated just off the busy Holderness Road, close to Hull's city centre. Hull lies on the River Hull at its confluence with the Humber Estuary and is situated 34 miles south-east of York. It is the fourth largest city in the Yorkshire and the Humber region. The area is an important commercial hub which originally developed around the town’s port and fishing industry.  Whilst still part of Hull’s commercial identity, fishing is being overtaken by the city’s chemical and health care sectors.  Several well-known British companies including BP, Smith & Nephew and Reckitt Benckiser have facilities a short distance from the subject property.  In 2017, Hull was awarded the title ‘City of Culture’ and hosted the Turner Prize at the city's Ferens Art Gallery.
Â
Property:
The premises comprises a detached, three storey public house of brick construction under a pitched slate roof. It lies a short distance from the city centre in a thoroughfare between the Sculcoates and Botanic residential areas and the main commercial and industrial districts which provide a loyal client base. The property is also situated close to Hull Royal Infirmary and, as a result, enjoys a significant amount of passing trade.

Business:
Our clients have operated the Red Lion Hotel since 1997 and have owned the premises since 2001. During this time, they have built the pub into a popular venue which is frequented by a sizeable crowd of locals. Private functions are often held in the venue, as are karaoke evenings. The business is operated by our clients alongside six part-time staff members.
Currently trade is wet-led. The possibility of converting the upper floors into rental accommodation (STPP) could also provide an additional revenue stream.
Further accounting details are available to all interested parties following a formal viewing.
