Busy Guest House In Hull East Yorkshire For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this busy guest house, which was established by our client in 2001 and which is only now offered to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The business trades all year round and generates a turnover in the region of £78,000 per annum with a gross profit of 47%. The guest house offers 11 guest bedrooms all equipped with TVs, tea and coffee making facilities and have en-suite facilities. There is also a high quality home cooked breakfast served to residents. The business has an excellent reputation and is renowned for its clean rooms and quality breakfast. The guest house receives much repeat trade from contractors working in the city, along with tourists using the ferry services. We feel that the turnover could be increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and perhaps establishing a website with online booking facilities. A new owner could, if desired introduce lunch and evening meals. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and have been finished to a high standard throughout. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
