"The hotel is well-invested with a strong strategic location in the city center of Belfast. The UK is a one of Europe’s largest and most dynamic hotel markets and Belfast is an attractive destination with a rich business life, several universities, and many attractions, which drive demand from all important segments. We will also make certain targeted value increasing investments to further improve the hotel’s position and profitability”, says Liia Nõu, CEO of Pandox.

The seller is a controlled affiliate of Starwood Capital Group. Pandox expects the hotel to generate a stabilised yield of approximately 10 percent. The hotel product was upgraded through renovation of all rooms and public areas during the pandemic years and has a strong competitive position.

The hotel will be reported under the business segment Operator Activities. Pandox already owns Leonardo Belfast with 270 rooms in Property Management.

Hilton Belfast is situated in central Belfast just 200 meters from the central station. The city’s largest and most modern event and conference centers, Waterfront Hall and ICC Belfast, are also located close to the hotel.
