Hotel Market Review 2025
Welcome to our Hotel Market Review 2025.
The report explores the current hotel market landscape, including trends in transaction activity, the trading environment, distressed sales, the finance and insurance environment, and predictions for the second half of the year.
Key Topics
“The UK hotel industry faced a mixed performance landscape throughout the first five months of 2025. Nonetheless, in the face of the non-negligible headwinds of the global economy and geopolitical scene as well as regulatory and fiscal pressures, the sector continues to show great dynamism and resilience which attracts significant investment interest domestically and internationally.
"The UK is maintaining its appeal as a ‘safe haven’ for investors by sitting outside of the EU, further strengthened by the perspective of a trade deal with the US. This is also reinforced by the weakened appeal of other real estate classes comparatively to hotels in recent years, which also induced some office-to-hotel conversion opportunities.
"We anticipate hotel owners and professional operators will maintain strategic focus on cost control, active asset management and operational innovation in order to navigate these ongoing challenges and come out the other end stronger than ever."
