This unique hotel is perfectly located on a busy street in the heart of Laudium, a suburb on the western outskirts of the Pretoria CBD. The hotel is close to places of worship, schools and major roads.
The hotel provides accommodation to nearly 50 individuals and their families in both ensuite (25) and single bedrooms (22) each with bathrooms and toilet facilities and in addition there are potential facilities for conferences, functions such as weddings and engagements, a cinema as well as safe and covered parking for several vehicles.
There are also at least 15 long established businesses operating on the street fronts of the hotel ranging from an up market restaurant to hair salon, stationery and cellphone shops.

The 3675sqm multi level building is located on a 7000sqm stand with it's main front on a busy road that links Laudium's two main roads, namely Jewel Street and 13th Avenue.
All the shops and rooms are currently let thus earning a sizable income for the current owner and based on this it is reliable to conclude that the return on investment is sound. There is also a potential growth in the income for the immediate future for the new owner based on upgrades that the complex require. Considering a modest upgrade to the complex can only mean a better return on investment for the new owners.
The building is solid and is in a sound structural condition. However, money spent on upgrading the cinema, covered parking, as well as the events venue, gymnasium and conference facilities will no doubt have a vast improvement on the potential earnings from this capital outlay.
The price is good, the current return on investment is good and the vastly improved earnings potential is enough reason to consider this purchase for both immediate gain and potential future earnings.
The maintenance that is required and the money spent will no doubt add to the overall investment potential and growth. This will also attract an improved clientele that would no doubt add value to the complex and at the same time raise the living standards of the surroundings.
