LONDON - The Ritz London, one of the most prestigious hotels in the world, could be put up for sale after its businessmen owners David and Frederick Barclay received several unsolicited offers for the establishment in Piccadilly. The directors of the hotel said last month they believed its value was more than 800 million pounds , given its freehold tenure, location near St James’s and Buckingham Palaces, quality of the building, casino lease and brand name.The Barclays, who also own the Daily Telegraph newspaper, however had received a number of unsolicited bids for the hotel, according to source close to the brothers.
Opened in 1906 by Swiss hotelier Cesar Ritz, the hotel became a favorite of royalty, politicians and film stars. It had a turnover of 47 million pounds in 2018 and made an operating profit of 15 million pounds, according to accounts filed last month.Reporting by Paul Sandle; editing by Guy Faulconbridge
