The Queens hotel owner adds Oulton Hall to portfolio
THE owner of The Queens hotel in Leeds has added six former De Vere Hotels to its portfolio, including Yorkshire’s 18th century country manor house hotel, Oulton Hall.
The hotels will be managed alongside the existing QHotels portfolio of 21 hotels led by managing director Michael Purtill and finance director Ian Goulding.
Purtill said: “This is a really positive move that will help drive long-term, sustained growth for the QHotels brand. The six hotels are an excellent fit as they are renowned for their first-rate facilities, catering and service. This aligns with our guest-first ethos and enables us to effectively expand our UK reach.
“We will be working with each hotel on an individual basis to ensure we build on the best of what they have to offer and complementing this with our experience and expertise. This will help to maximise the conference and events potential of each of the hotels, while strengthening our portfolio in terms of a wider golf, spa & leisure offering.”
With investment earmarked for each of the six hotels over the coming months, the hotels will be integrated into the QHotels portfolio.
The hotels are: Oulton Hall, Leeds; Cameron House, Loch Lomond; Dunston Hall, Norwich; Mottram Hall, Macclesfield, Cheshire; Slaley Hall, Hexham, Northumberland; and Belton Woods, Grantham, Lincolnshire.
