“We are thrilled to add Mary Mount Hotel to our portfolio. This property perfectly aligns with our strategic vision of expanding into key locations across the UK, particularly in areas that offer a unique and memorable guest experience. We look forward to enhancing the hotel’s offerings while preserving its charm and character.”
Dagmar Jungbauer, director of operations, added: “The addition of Mary Mount Hotel is a testament to our continued focus on quality and excellence in hotel management.
“We are excited to work closely with the hotel’s existing team to elevate the guest experience and build on the strong foundation that has already been established.”
