CBRE Appointed to Market Graduate by Hilton Cambridge

CBRE has been appointed by real estate investment manager, AJ Capital Partners, to sell the Graduate by Hilton Cambridge. The property is being marketed with pricing expectations in excess of £60m-£65m.

Occupying a prime location on the banks of River Cam, the hotel comprises 148 keys and recently underwent a comprehensive, multi-million-pound refurbishment completed in 2021. Guest rooms honour the heritage of the University of Cambridge with details inspired by centuries of local history, including bespoke designs and subtle nods to Cambridge blue throughout.

Graduate by Hilton Cambridge provides extensive guest amenities, including a fitness centre with swimming pool, more than 430 square meters of event space, a full-service restaurant, and a café and bar concept, which were also renovated in 2021. Additionally, the property features 151 parking spaces on a generous riverside site.

The hotel is surrounded by the University of Cambridge and within walking distance to several of its renowned colleges. Less than a mile from Regent Street, the city’s main thoroughfare, the Graduate Cambridge is in close proximity to the area’s best restaurants, bars, and shopping, as well as the famed Fitzwilliam Museum and Senate House. Situated 50 miles north of London, Cambridge offers visitors a variety of transportation options to and from major airports and cities throughout England.

Held on a long leasehold basis, the hotel provides investors with a rare opportunity to acquire a best-in-class hotel, backed by the world leading hotel group, Hilton, in one of the UK’s most dynamic and supply constrained prime regional markets. Cambridge remains one of the UK’s strongest-performing hospitality destinations, with consistent demand driven by the University of Cambridge, global research and technology institutions, and year-round tourism.
