Boutique hotel in Brighton comes to the market
A luxury boutique Brighton hotel that is listed in the Mr and Mrs Smith international hotel guide is looking for a new owner.
Square has a prominent position in New Steine, a Regency square on the Brighton seafront.
The former Regency townhouse has nine double and king-sized en-suite bedrooms with designer bathrooms (using designs by Philip Starck and Hans Grohe), lighting by Artimedes, and bespoke leather seating.
Other facilities include a ground floor bar and lounge which doubles as a breakfast room; an evening bar that is open to non-residents; and a spacious, open-plan reverse penthouse on the lower ground floor with walnut flooring throughout.
The penthouse has a glass-stepped staircase for internal access and a private entrance from the street; a living area with fireplace and designer sofas; and a kitchen, dining room, and king-sized bedroom with integral bathroom.
It doubles as a luxury meeting room and has hosted events for mobile phone company 02 and design house Yves St Laurent.
The Maidstone office of Christie + Co is inviting offers of £1.2m or more for the freehold.
