Hotel Portfolio – UK
£823K in Missed Tax Relief Recovered Across Three Hotels
The Property
Hotel assets are particularly rich in embedded capital, with infrastructure spanning everything from plumbing systems to guest room fit-outs.
In this case, we assessed a portfolio of three hotels, with a combined purchase price of £13.7 million — and discovered a substantial opportunity for relief.
Working closely with the client, we examined each site individually, identifying embedded assets such as fire alarm systems, commercial kitchens, lifts, HVAC systems, and specialist lighting throughout.
These assets had never been captured in prior claims.
Our Approach
Despite the scale of the portfolio, the client’s existing accountants had not identified the full scope of eligible expenditure.
Our in-house team carried out detailed site surveys and engineering-led analysis, uncovering a total of £823,575.43 in unclaimed capital allowances.
This delivered a significant financial boost for the owners — and established a stronger tax position across their property holdings, allowing them to plan future investments with greater confidence.
