The 14-storey aparthotel, due to complete in November 2021, will comprise 156 rooms with fully equipped kitchenettes, a coffee shop and a gym. Staycity has signed a 30-year lease to operate the building.

We’re delighted to be adding Staycity to our hotel portfolio as a financially strong tenant with a well-known brand who is making a long-term commitment to this location.”

Paul Eden, Joint Founder at Regal London added: “Our Commercial Road development is a great example of how we work successfully to transform local areas through innovative mixed-use schemes, providing valuable residential, commercial and retail opportunities across London. As part of this approach, it has been a pleasure to work with Union Investment to deliver an aparthotel strategy at Commercial Road and we look forward to a long and successful relationship with them.”

The acquisition is added to the holdings of open-ended real estate fund Unilmmo: Deutschland.
