Stephen Champion, Associate Director of Christie & Co’s South West Hotel team added, “As highlighted in our Business Outlook 2019 report, the market faced many challenges in 2018 but for those businesses which embraced change, there are still plenty of opportunities for innovative entrepreneurs.
“The South West market was particularly active in 2018 and we transacted 23% more hotel deals in the region than the previous year, with investors keen to take advantage of the booming tourism industry. We continue to see an improvement in the quality of businesses coming to the market and with interest rates remaining low, the Leisure sector provides robust returns for entrepreneurs seeking higher returns. The South West is regarded as a fantastic place to invest and we have seen a noticeable increase in foreign investment, particularly from the Asian markets.”
