We acted for ICVC, a fund managed by BMO Real Estate, on a forward commitment on a Travelodge hotel and Starbucks drive-thru development in Bury St Edmunds for £9.5m. The 80-bedroom hotel, was let to Travelodge on a 25-year lease and the site also includes a 1,800 sq ft drive-thru Starbucks. Following the pandemic and Travelodge’s CVA, BMO took back the Travelodge lease and the hotel was converted into a Premier Inn on a 30 year lease.
