Serviced apartment group Supercity Aparthotels has purchased The Light ApartHotel in Manchester’s Northern Quarter.
The property is a mixed-use development of 172 apartments, 62 of which are operated as The Light ApartHotel.
It is spread across 19 floors and offers fully equipped studio, one- and two- bedroom apartments as well as a range of penthouse suites.
Supercity has acquired the aparthotel as a going concern, with plans to refurbish and re-launch in 2018.
The firm is looking to acquire sites in major UK cities as part of its expansion plans. Its current portfolio includes three London aparthotels, and plans to open further sites in London and Brighton in 2018.
Dean Madge, managing director, said: “We’re encouraged by the recent visitor numbers published and the increased international flights, establishing Manchester as a dual centre destination for those visiting the UK.
“We believe that The Light is perfectly placed to be part of this great city’s renowned friendliness and hospitality.”
