Crewe Arms Hotel available for £1m

THE Crewe Arms Hotel in Crewe, which once hosted Queen Victoria, has been put on the market with a £1m price tag.

The three-star freehold hotel opposite the railway station is being sold by Harpreet Singh, who has owned the property since 2008.

It has 61 en-suite bedrooms, a restaurant, lounge and bar, seven meeting and conference rooms and a contract car park with 120 spaces.

It was built in the first half of the 19th Century and extended in the second half and is one of the few surviving buildings of Crewe’s so-called new town of that time.

The specialist hotels division of the North West office of Colliers International in Manchester is marketing the property.

Associate director Neil Thomson said: “The prime trading position of the hotel opposite Crewe railway station, together with its vicinity to the town centre and nearby Crewe Gate Industrial Park provides an excellent opportunity for an investor or hotel group to acquire a substantial freehold site ideal as a conference and meeting venue.”
