The sale is being managed via CBRE’s Tim Gibson, Harry George and Angus Windred, with the hotel situated near Kings Cross train station and Potts Point’s dining precinct.

“This is an opportunity to acquire a strategic foothold in Sydney – one of Asia Pacific’s most sought-after and tightly held hotel investment marks,” Mr Gibson said.

“Given that the hotel is offered with vacant possession, the incoming purchaser is afforded the flexibility of either partnering with one of the leading hotel managers that have expressed interest to operate it, or to alternatively run the hotel under their own positioning.”
